Android Studio Upgrade Causing Headaches

Learned Java last year to make games and installed Android Studio (I believe, version 2). Just upgraded to 3.6 a couple days ago and it's been nothing but headaches trying to build and run my apps. Kept getting gradle errors about deprecated this and that, inability to find this or that, etc.

I've been googling each specific error and trying to figure out just WHERE I'm to make the suggested changes. I get a little further each time but now I have no idea what to do next.

I'm getting errors about Gradle having deprecated features that are not compatible with version 7. I'm not really sure about what Gradle does besides it being needed to build your apps.

With the attached, I THINK that I was able to capture one of the issues. But I have no idea WHERE to go to make this fix. What file is it in? Where is the file?

I didn't expect upgrading to cause this many issues (they all seem to relate to Gradle) but I'll never upgrade this thing again unless it's absolutely necessary.

Apps accessing gallery, pics out of order

I think it is a problem with the micro SD card and not with the app. It is not just the one app either. It is any app on my phone that accesses the gallery. Is there a way to defrag or streamline the info on the micro SD card?.

You're approaching this problem from the wrong angle. It's most definitely an app issue. Check in that OfferUp app's settings to change now it displays your photos. Or whatever app you're using. This has nothing do with where your photo files reside, it's all about the photo managing app you're using to view your photos. The photo files are completely inert while in your internal storage or microSD card, they don't move around, they don't change how they're arranged. Once they get written to whatever storage media, they just 'sit' there as is. It's the app you're using is that detects those inert photo files and displays them accordingly -- it might be sorted by date, or by name, or whatever category specified. Some apps are more limited in their feature sets, some are more expansive so it's all dependent on the app you're using. Again, look in the settings menu of the app you're using.

Huwaei P Smart, my headphones won't work on my phone.

My headphones use to work on my phone, but recently it won't work on my phone. I done few checks, first I checked if my headphone jack is working by plugging in other headphones and it works fine. So headphone jack works. Then I tried my headphones on other phones and the headphones works fine. So what is the problem?, it's so weird I don't know what to think.
Since you've already verified that both the jack and headphones work--but not together!--I'm really not sure what else to suggest. Is there a reason you can't simply switch to headphones that work with it? :thinking:

Help Video file showing at top of Gallery app

I have video files showing up at the top of the gallery with a date 6th Feb 6, 2036
Do you recognize these videos? When you play them, are they videos that you downloaded or otherwise saved?

As for how/why they're displaying at the top of your gallery, that's due to its settings. However you've set your gallery app to sort files is how it will sort files.

Please tell us the name of your gallery app--linking to its Play Store page would be helpful--and post a screenshot of the videos listed in your gallery, so we can -see- how they're named.

If you need help with any of that, just let us know!

Notification dot?

Welcome to Android Forums, Kelly Tolbert!
Where is this dot located if it is turned on?
I've never seen them myself, because of how I've configured my launcher. But they should appear on an app's icon. So, I -think- that means icons on your home screens and maybe(?) in your app drawer. They're a little bubble, and can contain the number of notifications you have waiting for each app.

Hopefully, someone who uses them will post a screenshot--and correct anything I've misstated! :D

Codename C.U.B.E

Heres a link to the game
I have been working on a 3D bullet hell game for almost a year now and finally, it's ready to be released. The game was made in Unity and features two modes. Endless adventure and Boss Rush Mode where your best time is recorded. The game is very accessible and fun to play. The game is free and features no ads. Here's a look at some gameplay to get a sense of the game plays.
