WiFi not working???

I have my Pixel 7Pro, service provided by Google Fi, configured to use WiFi for phone calls. However, sometimes the connection drops so I wondered if the call is really using WiFi. In order to test things, I ran WireShark on a notebook and looked at the activity on the house's WiFi network. While I saw WiFi activity from other devices on the house's wireless network, I saw nothing from my phone - even when I explicitly opened a web page, etc.

I believe that the phone is configured properly - when I go to Settings-> Network -> Internet -> settings for the local WiFi, I see that the phone has the proper IP address (as I have reserved addresses, based on the MAC address, for all devices) and the phone claims to be connected to the local network. What the heck is going on????

Group Text Limits

I use a group text to stay in touch with old high school friends. The problem is the group has grown beyond the limit of recipients. I was using Google Voice which is limited to 7. Then moved to Google Messages which is supposed to be limited to 100, but I have not been successful with even 35.

My carrier is Verizon. I have read Verizon Messages are limited to 20. Not sure if that is the app or the carrier. Can someone recommend an app that can do group texts with larger groups.

Send text message to multiple groups

I'm new to the Verizon Message+ app and find it a bit difficult to learn some of the functions. I've started to create some groups and sometimes I want to send a message to multiple groups at the same time. When I open the app and click on the icon to create a message, it opens "New Conversation" and the cursor is blinking in the "TO" field. I enter the group name for one group but I'm not able to add a 2nd or 3rd group. Is this possible? If yes, how?

How to access Styx Browser & Duckduckgo sessions/tabs on my Android & transferring them to my Linux PC, possibly adb method, is root needed?

I've tried every solution recommended. My smartphone is not rooted, it is an LG L355DL, LG K31 Rebel, Android version 10. I got many tabs on my browsers that I need to transfer & review. When I try to transfer each tab one by one using my phone, old social media sessions, Facebook links, etc, I open the tab, but they reset their URL to facebook.com/login, so I often lose where I was at completely when I try to click on them to share/transfer them to my PC or anywhere.

In other words I have to open the tab again, refresh the URL, but in the process the URL changes & sometimes resets itself to the domain, common thing that happens when you're not re-logged into social media, etc. So I need a walk-through to access the session/tab files via adb method, or something.

I do not have root access to my phone. I tried to do adb pull /data/data/com.styxbrowser.browser/app_chrome/Default/* etc. I connected my PC to my phone via USB, but it doesn't work. Also this forum post may help. Here are my terminal results/attempts: www.rentry.co/cyube.

Lastly, there is interestingly another very different approach to accessing these files, it worked for my Android Kiwi browser. I connected my android to my PC via USB, opened my kiwibrowser on my Android, turned on adb on my phone, then I went to chrome://inspect/#devices in my browser on my PC. I could see all tabs & could back them all up. it works like a charm. However, it doesn't work with Styx or Duckduckgo. Not sure why.

-Thanks!

Watch5 Battery

My battery appears to be getting roughly a day and a half of "charge time" which is inconvenient and was wondering would I be
hurting" the battery degradation if I charge it to +/- 70% so that I would be charging it every morning instead of at randomly inconvenient times?
Thank you

Android Studio won't open

My MBP died & is in the shop so I've booted up a mac mini after many months, upgraded everything (macos 13.4 (22F66), xcode, vscode, intellij, you name it) including android studio which launches, puts the icon on the dock, then disappears.

I've deleted the app, I've deleted ~/Library/Application Support/Google/AndroidStudio<version>, and I've reinstalled but still can't get it to open.

What else should I do?

How to Get Samsung Galaxy J2 To Use Speed Dial Numbers

I have speed dial code numbers set on my Galaxy J2 phone, but when I press a speed dial code number the phone won't dial the associated number. I get a recording "call cannot be completed as dialed". Obviously it is dialing only the speed dial code and not the associated number (dialing the actual number directly from contact list works). What's the trick to get the Galaxy phone to dial using the speed dial numbers?

Help Keep getting unidentified sound that doesn't seem to be a notification

Recently, my Samsung A13 with the stock OS and the latest updates started periodically making a sound I've never heard before. It sounds very much like an electronic version of a house key being dropped into a shot glass. I have a notification history app, but nothing appears in that list anywhere near the time the sound is heard.

I can't detect anything going on near the time it is heard. It occurs at seemingly random times, often waking me up even with the general sound volume set low. I can't turn off the phone's sound completely because I need my Dexcom G7 diabetes monitor running at all times to warn me of problems. I tried uninstalling the Dexcom app temporarily to see if it was producing the sound, but it still sounded apparently randomly. I also looked at what apps I had installed before the sound began, but nothing seemed to match up.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what might be causing this annoying sound, please? Thanks!
