Major change to Facebook Messenger for millions of Android users as Meta scraps SMS

Facebook Messenger’s dual messaging experience, allowing Android users to send and receive SMS messages in the app, will be scrapped late next month.

The change will kick in from September 28, when users update the app on their devices.

“SMS messages will no longer be available when you update your Messenger app,” Meta said.

“If you use Messenger as your default SMS messaging app for your Android device, please note you will no longer be able to use Messenger to send and receive SMS messages sent by your cellular network.”

Users will still be able to send and receive text messages after the change, but the SMS function will remain within the device’s default messaging app, such as Android Messages.

The reality star turned supermodel is living her best life aboard a huge yacht in Cannes, wearing a skimpy swimsuit on a lavish day out. Kendall Jenner has been flaunting her impressive ʙικιɴι body as she holidays in the south of France. The 23-year-old supermodel was spotted making the most of the summer weather in Cannes — spending the day on a giant yacht and officially living the dream. While aboard the impressive boat, the Victoria’s Secret model rocked a teeny-tiny white polka-dot ʙικιɴι that showed off her athletic physique. She teamed her string ʙικιɴι with a pair of small-framed sunglá´€sses and tied her hair back in a ponytail using a scrunchie. “Kendall is enjoying the single life right now and had the best time in Cannes,” a source told US Weekly recently. “She’s been socialising with friends and going to tons of events and doesn’t seem bothered by her split with Ben at all.” Source: https://thefoxposts.com/kendall-jenner-ha...

Malaysia telecoms firms complete talks to take up stakes in 5G

KAULA LAMPUR:   Malaysia said on Friday telecommunications firms CelcomDigi, Maxis, Telekom Malaysia, U Mobile and YTL Communications will take up stakes in state 5G agency Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB), following an agreement reached between the firms and the government on equity participation and 5G access. The announcement comes as mobile operators and the government look set to conclude protracted negotiations over Malaysia's 5G rollout plans. Malaysia had in 2021 announced that state-owned DNB would own the full 5G spectrum, with carriers using the infrastructure to provide mobile services.

However, the deal lapsed after Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's administration - which took power after an election in November last year - announced a review of the governme...

We look back 01.HIGH-WAISTED BRIEFS, 2010 Back in 2010 Taylor was still singing country, still rocking curly hair and forming her iconic swimsuit style: preppy prints in retro designs. 02.NAUTICAL, 2011 Before she decided she wanted her belly Ê™uÑ‚Ñ‚on to “be a mystery,” she exposed it (once!) in ultra-low-cut bottoms that she made look more sweet than SÑ”xy. 03.RED POLKA DOTS, 2012 And Taylor was not going to go home. (Seriously: She bought a house there.) 04.PASTEL STRIPES, 2015 The Internet freaked out when she finally bared her belly Ê™uÑ‚Ñ‚on, but we were way more shocked that she ditched the red and blue suits for something so colorful. 05.BLACK LACE, 2016 Sheer lace? Skimpy ties? Sexy pose? What did Calvin Harris do to our oh-so-demure Tay? 06.SPORTY NEON, 2016 She even went full-...
