A “MANDATORY” update is going out to some mobiles after reports of fires breaking out when charging.

While the update is important for safety, affected users will notice a knock to their battery’s capacity as a result.

Google says it will contact those impacted[/caption]

Google has confirmed to The Sun that a “subset” of Pixel 6a devices will receive it “to reduce the risk of potential battery overheating”.

It comes as a number of unverified reports online that the phone caught fire when on charge.

One user shared pictures of his destroyed Pixel 6a which they say began to “shoot out hot gas” in the middle of the night as it was on charge.

“Luckily, I was able to smother the fire, then throw the still-smoking phone into the toilet before the fire spread,” Reddit user zaliver claimed.

“My wife and I are pretty shook up about it.”

A small number of other users have reported similar issues.

“The update will enable battery management features that will reduce capacity and charging performance after the battery reaches 400 charge cycles,” Google said.

“We’ll contact impacted customers next month, with all the information they need to address the issue.”

It comes only a few months after another update impacted the batteries on the Pixel 4A, though this incident affected all models and wasn’t a result of safety concerns.

Owners were offered a free replacement battery to solve the problem.

FROM buying a Ferrari to holidaying in the Seychelles, we’ve all got a plan for how to splash the cash if we win the EuroMillions.

Players have a chance of scooping the record-breaking jackpot of £208million this Friday – and now, top lottery expert Simon Horne exclusively tells Sun readers how to boost your chances of bagging the whole lot.

From buying your ticket early to monitoring your tickets on the National lottery app, here’s how to win big[/caption]

If a UK player takes home the money, it will be the largest prize ever won in this country, making the lucky winner instantly richer than the likes of Adele, Dua Lipa and Harry Kane.

From picking your lucky numbers to whether you should join a syndicate, there’s a heap of practical ways to boost your chances of getting richer overnight.

Of course, the only real way of increasing your chances of winning is to buy more tickets.

Make sure you gamble responsibly. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and set a money limit before playing.

If you need advice, visit gamcare.org.uk or GambleAware.org.

Is a syndicate worth it?

A lottery syndicate is when a group of people put money into a pot for lottery tickets.

There will be one person in charge – the syndicate manager – who will buy tickets and share out any winnings out among the group.

Playing as part of a group could be a good way of boosting your chances of winning, as Simon, from The National Lottery operator Allwyn UK, explains.

“If you join a syndicate of 10 people, then there’s 10 tickets and 10 chances of winning, so there’s clearly a greater chance of winning compared to if you just bought your own ticket,” he said.

The syndicate manager will need to register the group and list themselves as the person in charge with The National Lottery.

Make sure to write all the terms and conditions of the agreement down, and get each person to sign it, said Simon.

“If there’s any confusion or complications down the line, then you can refer back to the agreement and then everyone knows where they stand,” he said.

The big downside to consider being part of a syndicate is that you’ll need to equally split the pot between each person.

So, if you were part of a syndicate of four people, splitting the £208million jackpot four ways would leave you with £52million – although that’s still big winnings to walk away with.

Pick YOUR lucky numbers

You might think that picking up the most common numbers may mean you are more likely to win.

The number 20 has been drawn the most, according to Lottery.co.uk, which tracks lottery results.

That’s followed by the number 21, which has been drawn 108 times, then 23 (105 times), 42 (104 times) then 29 (103 times).

The most common Lucky Stars are 3, which has been drawn 178, and 2, which has been drawn 174 times.

But you’re better off picking whichever numbers you feel are best, said Simon.

That’s because, statistically, each number has an equal chance of being drawn.

Many people pick their birthday numbers because they think they are lucky.

“We all have lucky numbers – I know plenty of players who lean on lucky numbers, which could be phone numbers or numbers passed down from family members,” said Simon.

“Every set of numbers has the same chance of coming out.

“The best strategy to play is the one that you think will bring you luck.”

Monitor your numbers

Not sure your lucky numbers are working for you?

You could keep an eye on how often your lucky numbers are being drawn, and if they’re not coming up as often as you would like, you can try a different tact.

The National Lottery app stores all your tickets from draws you have entered.

The app is free to download from either the App Store on iPhone, or the Google Play store on Android devices.

That means you can go back in and check your most profitable numbers.

You could make a spreadsheet of how often your lucky numbers are being drawn, and every three months, see whether it’s worth keeping them, or ditching them for alternatives.

According to Lottery.co.uk, the unluckiest Euromillions numbers are 22, which has been drawn 65 times, followed by 40 (73 times) and 18.

The National Lottery app is free to download from either the App Store or Google Play.

Timing matters

Timing matters when it comes to buying your ticket, said Simon.

If you leave it to the last minute, then there’s a risk that you run out of time to buy your ticket.

You need to buy your ticket before 7:30pm on Friday – otherwise you’ll miss out.

“My main advice is not to leave it too late – don’t rush into the newsagents or load up your app at 7:25pm,” he said.

“You might not be able to upload money onto your online account, or buy your ticket, in time and you could miss the draw.”

LOVE Islanders get surprising news after tonight’s recoupling – and fans think they’ve ‘worked out’ what it is.

Manchester beauty Sophie Lee was the first contestant to be sent packing after she became the victim of an opening twist.

Shakira saved herself by picking a boy she wanted to couple with.

By choosing footballer Harry Cooksley, she eliminated Sophie.

This time around, it’s a boy who bites the dust after one is left single in a shock recoupling.

It follows the arrival of bombshells Shea Mannings and Remell Mullins, both of which got to pick first in the villa reshuffle.

This leaves the boys wondering if they’ve done enough to be chosen.

Toni says: “Tables have turned!”

They haven’t got long to wait. That evening Tommy gets a text:

Can all Islanders gather around the Firepit immediately, #DecisionTime.

As the boys line up, the girls get ready to make their choices and their first speeches at the Firepit.

But will they stay coupled up with their current partners or have the events of the past few days been enough to make them take action?

And that’s not all for this re-coupling as a surprise extra text arrives that none of the Islanders had seen coming.

Fans flocked to Reddit to share their opinions and one said: “I wonder what the text is that no one saw coming.

“I think it’s that the bombshells pick first as i doubt they would dump them after 24 hours Or new bombshell.”

Another suggested: “I think Toni might choose Conor. Then maybe a new bombshell comes in and has to choose between Ben and Blu to even out the numbers.”

While a third said: “After reading the press release I think Shakira picks Ben and Toni picks Conor. Blu and Shea are left.

“Either they send in a bombshell to pick between them or the group gets to decide which one to dump.”

But another had a different opinion and suggested: “I think they are gonna go on a date with a bombshell and she is gonna choose the one she wants.”

Meanwhile, Love Island star Shakira’s family have slammed a show rival for catty comments saying ‘what is her problem?’

And chaos reigns in the villa as Harry finds out about Shakira’s Hideaway kiss and Shea tries to split the show’s most solid couple.

Plus viewers have ranted “get him out”, after they claimed one of the boys is showing “scary red flag behaviour.”

BEN ASKREN’S wife has given another update on the former MMA champion’s condition as he battles pneumonia.

The 40-year-old was “unresponsive” after being hospitalised last week.

Askren remains in a critical condition after contracting pneumonia following a staph infection.

A false rumour began to circulate a few days ago that he had sadly passed away.

But his wife Amy has shut down these claims, telling TMZ Sports that he is “definitely still fighting” for his life.

Former fighter-turned-commentator Daniel Cormier revealed Askren has been transferred to a hospital in his hometown of Wisconsin.

He said: “Everybody is just kind of praying that Ben gets better and we can start moving forward with life for Ben.

“It’s so sad. I don’t know how things like this happen to someone who is so good because Ben is a good guy.

“Pray for Amy, guys. Pray for the kids. Ben, we love you, buddy. We are constantly thinking about him every single day.”

Askren’s partner Amy, who he married in 2010 and has three kids with, released an emotional statement on Tuesday.

It read: “Feeling so incredibly thankful for our friends and community.

“It’s times like this that remind you how truly blessed you are.

“I feel God moving through the love and support we have received.

“I’m sorry if I haven’t had the chance to respond to you, but know I’ve seen your messages, and each one has meant so much to me.

“Please keep praying for Ben.”

Former Bellator welterweight world champion Askren retired from MMA in 2019 after three UFC fights.

He fought Jake Paul in a boxing clash in 2021, losing via a first round knockout.

The 48-capsule XXL pack is perfect for families or anyone wanting to get ahead of their laundry game without breaking the bank.

They’re suitable for both whites and colours, so there’s no need to buy different products for separate loads.

Plus, they’re compatible with all machines, making them a hassle-free choice for any household.

Shoppers have been quick to share their thoughts on these no-mess, no-hassle laundry capsules, praising their price, scent, and stain-removing qualities.

One happy shopper wrote: “They effectively remove stains, protect colours, and leave laundry smelling fresh.”

Another customer commented on the “great value for money” and labelled the capsules as a “must-have for any laundry routine.”

Amazon’s limited-time deals don’t tend to stick around for long, so act fast to stock up and take advantage.

The pair locked lips during a game in the villa and the boys in particular were left gobsmacked.

Austin Shepard, who is coupled up with Chelley, was left wiping his eyes in disbelief before saying, “Chelley and I haven’t even kissed like that.”

The intense girl-on-girl snog happened during a game of Pucker Or Pie in the US series of Love Island, which is filmed in Fiji.

Cierra was stood in front of the Islanders and read out a card that said, “Which Islander gives you red flag vibes?”

Giving her answer to the group, she had a twinkle in her eye as she said, “I’m going to say… Chelley.”

Chelley, who was wearing a blue denim mini dress, looked delighted to have been picked – despite the “red flag” comment.

Cierra was then required to toss a giant pink coin, which featured a picture of lips on one side and cream pie on the other.

She made zero attempt to spin it and ensured it landed lips side up.

Chelley rushed to the front and the girls immediately grabbed each other and began kissing frantically.

Cutting to a clip in the Beach Hut, Cierra said, “Do you know how long I’ve been waiting to get my lips on Chelley?!”

A clip of the moment has now taken the internet by storm, with many viewers delighted to see the girls sharing a smooch.

Fans of Love Island USA have noticed a growing chemistry between Cierra and Chelley – despite them both being coupled up with men – and are now hoping they can recouple with each other.

Commenting on the kiss, one fan said, “WHEN CIERRA SAID SHE HAD BEEN WAITING TO KISS CHELLEY I NEARLY DIED. they have more chemistry than any of these couples do.”

Another added, “Ughh the HUNGER BEHIND THAT KISS!!!! ‘Chelley and i havent even kissed like that” is sending me sb. Poor Austin he was literally ab to cry.”

And a third remarked, “All I want is a recoupling where girls pick the guys… then Cierra stands up and picks Chelley leaving the men in the duuuuuust!! Please it’s what we need.”

Chelley, who works as a trader, came out as bisexual early in this season’s Love Island USA, which airs on Peacock.

She even told her fellow Islanders that she previously dated two girls at once, seeing one in the morning and one in the evening.

Cierra, meanwhile, has played her cards closer to her chest and not openly said whether she is also attracted to women.

She is currently coupled up with Nicolas Vansteenberghe.

In her video intro as she entered the villa, content creator Cierra said, “I’m the full package: brains, beauty, and boobs.

“I don’t care whose toes I have to step on. If I can take your man, he was never your man in the first place.”

LOVE Island fans are convinced they’re worked the ‘real reason’ Harry takes Helena into the Hideaway tonight.

The Sun revealed this week that air hostess Helena, 29, and semi-pro footballer Harry, 30, spent the night together in the hidden suite on Monday.

Harry suggests to Helena that they sneak off to the Hideaway[/caption]

It meant that it was just 56 hours after the new series kicked off, making it the quickest Hideaway sleepover in Love Island history.

On last night’s show, Shakira, who is coupled up with Harry, visited the Hideaway with Blu, who is with Alima.

The pair shocked fans as they shared a kiss just minutes into entering the cosy private area.

And on Thursday’s instalment, Harry finds out about their snog from fellow Islander Dejon, leaving him gobsmacked.

Harry then suggests to Helena that they sneak off to the Hideaway in the middle of the night.

They narrowly missed be rumbled after a few Islanders spotted them leaving the bedroom together.

But some fans think Harry is using Helena to get back at Shakira for kissing Blu.

One wrote: “Harry taking Helena to the hideaway just to get at Shakira, get them off my screen.”

A second posted: “Oh Harry playing around…are any of those boys serious?”

A third said: “Harry is just taking Helena into the Hideaway to make Shakira jealous.”

Someone else said: “I think Harry and Helena make sense. He doesn’t like her, he just wants a back up in case Shakira wants someone else.”

A source said: “This is the fastest sleepover in the Hideaway in Love Island’s twelve series history – and what a gorgeous pair to do so.

“In the past, producers had to invite Islanders to use the breakout bedroom which meant the love nest was generally not used until couples became more established.

“But producers have changed the rules of the breakout bedroom so it can be used at any time, without an invite.

“It means Helena and Harry could take advantage of the ‘no invite needed’ and explore their connection.

“The scenes will play out later this week, but bosses are unlikely to show anything too naughty, as is the show’s usual approach.”

Helena, who is pals with Piers Morgan’s son Spencer and Gary Lineker’s son George on the outside, had fans in stitches on Monday night’s launch when she described her type as a “four out of ten that is funny.”

Harry, who is a commodities trader, has been described as The Surrey Zidane by fans of his team, Farnham Town.

He’s scored with Helena after his original coupling, Sophie Lee left the villa as part of a show twist.
