Change Facebook SDK request dialog title & notification title

Question

this question is about android ... I have been a week for now trying to display my own message as a title for the invitation/request dialog and for the notification as well (for facebook SDK 3.0+) but i cant know how, and the facebook SDK documentation is a piece of !@#$, i must go through all the documentation from the start to know a little piece of information

here is my code

        final Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
        parameters.putString("app_id", /*app id*/);
        parameters.putString("to", /*selected friends*/);
        parameters.putString("message", /*a message displayed to the inviter*/);
        WebDialog dialog = new WebDialog.RequestsDialogBuilder(
                        this, Session.getActiveSession(), parameters)
                        .setOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener() {/*what ever happens here */}
                        }).build();
        dialog.show();

now 2 points :

1- i want to set the title of the request dialog, all i can see is "app requests"
2- i want to change the message that appears in the notification for the receiver

and PLEASE dont tell me see the facebook documentation, it is a piece of !@#$

Not sure if you can actually change the message for the notification. If you can find it in the documentation, it will tell you it's not possible (at least that's what I last came across). But you can change the title for the Dialog.

WebDialog dialog = new WebDialog.RequestsDialogBuilder(
                    this, Session.getActiveSession(), parameters)
                    .setTitle("Whatever title you like")
                    .setOnCompleteListener(new OnCompleteListener() {
                        /*what ever happens here */
                    }}).build();
dialog.show();

setTitle function only changes the title of the dialog. How do you change the title of the notification that appears at the receiver's end ? – MiaN KhaLiD Oct 10 '14 at 13:44
You can't change the title of the notification that the receiver will see. FB uses the Custom Stories to define these, you could define the way your Graph Object (used for a story) is displayed. They will also automatically be translated by FB. – StingRay5 Oct 11 '14 at 15:31
