Help Why would a group text message get sent to each person individually rather than as part of the group

Hi all. There is a group chat going between my mom, my sister, and me. My mom responded with a text, but somehow it went to me and my sister separately, i.e. it went to the text message thread of just my mom and me on my phone, and the thread for my sister and my mom on my sister's phone. My mom's phone shows that it went to the group chat though! Other texts seem to be going to the group chat normally so far.

Any reason something like this might happen?

DVD theory..

I am talking about normal dvds, I know a few of them rent from redbox, or their local library, now the way people handle them is insane of having the scratches due to wear and tear, even if pausing them on forever and going to use the kitchen for a long nap or something, that does either hurt it because of dvd players or anything, now I usually slip one in and leave it playing, or turn down the volume, put it on mute whenever someone is talking to me. I have older ones that get so scratched up plenty of times and will not play.

Like Family Guy, Space Ghost C2C, Sing, Ugly American ones, just ontop of my head, but when I binge on anything I leave it on and wait until it is finished to pop out my ps3.. and look at the underneath due to scratches...

Anyone else get that right away of getting it on pause and then having it scratch up?

Suddenly lost all mobile signal.

My phone suddenly lost all signal. The signal strength icon shows a circle with a line through it. I have replaced them sim, tried other sims and the 2nd sim slot. I have done a factory reset on the phone it its still the same.

I dont know what the fault could be. is there a way of telling if it is the SIM card reader or something else? The SIM manager shows my phone number but then Unknown, in what I presume should have been the carrier name.

I can get a SIM repair through SAMSUNG for £99 but I dont know if that will fix the problem. I dont want to spend that much only to find out it isn't the issue.

Are there any suggestions to see if it is a SIM card reader issue or an larger fault with the phone.

Cannot rebuild after changing targetSdkVersion

I have a legacy app and no desire to update it but Google Play told me I have to increase my targetSdkVersion to at least 31. After some experimentation, I changed it to 32.

I now get three red lines in my build.gradle:
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0'
implementation 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0'
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0'

Hovering on one of these, it told me I needed to upgrade to AndroidX, which I did by choosing Refractor>Migrate to AndroidX... It did some stuff, don't know what. The red lines are still there. If I try to rebuild, I get fifteen errors in values.xml saying "Android resource linking failed" on lines starting:
<declare-styleable name="Constraint"><attr name="android:orientation"/>...

I have upgraded Android Studio to the latest version. Any suggestions what to try next? I find it enormously frustrating that a) I am forced to change my target SDK for an app that hasn't changed in three years and b) when I do, it seems to open a great can of worms and I'm beginning to panic that I will never get this app to compile again.

I have decades of experience as a developer but I don't really understand gradles and stuff. I just want to write some Java and turn it into an app. I seem to end up fighting the developer tools all the way.

App not Installed error when updating the app by installing updated apk file

I have installed latest Android Studio "Android Studio Dolphin | 2021.3.1 Patch 1" in my new laptop and copied existing App folder and its jks file.
I am able to generate Signed APK file in the new Android Studio after updating
versionName in app/build.gradle file. If I install the new apk in my mobile (where the app is already installed with previous versionName), it says "app is not installed" error.

In my old Android Studio, I was able to update versionName, generate apk file and able to update the app.

Could you please tell what could be the issue.

Note:
- my apk/app is installed in the mobile by enabling "allow from unknown sources".
- in old Android Studio, while generating Signed APK, there were options for Signature Version as V1 and V2. I used to enable both of them to generate the apk. but in the latest Android Studio, it is not shown. Could that be a reason ?

Comet-c2022-e3-ztf

Okay, I'll admit to being a bit out there when it comes to being fascinated by viewing the night skies. I even invested in a top of the line amateur telescope and spent countless nights with my children observing the heavens. We rarely missed a night viewing the heavier meteor showers. Once they were grown and away from home, we all met in Nebraska to be in the umbra of the last total solar eclipse and vowed to travel again for the next. We be sky junkies so forgive me for sharing the link below. A comet, the name is the title of this thread, is making its round in our visible sky though this month. It will be difficult to see with the naked eye. It will take a clean dark sky and perhaps binoculars to see. It may seem silly to even try to see it but it will cost nothing but time. Time.... it was 50,000 years ago when it last passed our way. I'm hoping for clear sky Saturday the 21st which will be a new moon (no moon) and will go to my cabin away from the city lights to better my chances of a sighting.

What is a notification icon for android on its toolbar that looks like a lower case “ “ Like this one I found On this dating app but without the heart. Because the notification doesn’t have the heart I don’t want to assume.

Help Turn off simcard

I use Samsung S22 with a work number and a private number.

Can someone help me set up Tasker so that the job number is switched off between 1800 and 0600 Monday to Friday and all of Saturday and Sunday. I need help step by step because I'm quite an amateur when it comes to Tasker.

I don't trust my English so Google Translate has helped me :)

Internal audio recorder app for S22 (and android tablets)

I'm looking for an app I can install on my S22 and my android tablet (Samsung A8) that will record internal audio.

I know my phone has the screen recorder app but I don't want to recording to be in a video format, I want it to be in mp3 or other audio format.

For instance, if I'm listening to a radio show or game on my phone or tablet, I want to make an audio recording of that show or game.

Is there an app that will do this?
I'm willing to pay for it, so money is not an issue.
Thanks
