Help Schedule volume changes

I have used MacroDroid by ArloSoft for this purpose for years. I found Tasker to be overly complicated for my relatively simple needs. That said, any app of this type takes a moment to learn its world view.

At 10PM, it automatically sets my media volume to 0 and my notifications to 45%. At 8AM it turns media to 50% and notifications to 75%. You could probably turn up the appropriate volume settings at midnight to be sure you haven't left your meeting mute on overnight.

How to view running apps on Android 12?

If you look in your phone's Settings >> Battery menu, that should show you a listing of running apps but that's more or less just cursory info. Not knowing what phone you have, there's no way to be more definitive. But if it's not very obvious it's likely to be buried in a sub-menu option.

If you want a more detailed viewing, you should use the 'Running services' option instead. Running services shows not just apps you're using but system apps and services that are running in the background. (...in the Running services window, switch to the Cached processes). You do need to enable Developer options in your Settings menu first, so you can then access Running services.

Low Battery Warning Stopped

Your LG Rebel 4 LTE phone is a Tracfone, carrier-locked, 5yr old model with relatively low hardware specs and running an out-of-date version on Android:
Before you try to do something that replace the battery or spend anything to 'upgrade' this phone, you might want to just save your money and put it aside to help pay for a newer, more capable phone instead. There are a number of 'budget-class' phones that are just as capable or more so.
Carrier-unlocked models will cost a bit more but allow you a lot more flexibility to switch between different carriers, but if that's not something you care about, buying a carrier-locked model from the carrier can involve a significant up-front discount when you don't mind locking yourself into a contract.

"Smart Lock" Trusted Location is unreliable

Well, I might have found a solution, but it is specific to Samsung phones. There might be similar capabilities in other phones.

On my S22, there is an ability to Create routines that preform tasks given conditions. It is part of the "Bixby" assistant.

So within the Routine "App", I created a a place called Home and defined it based on a google map street address with a radius of 200 meters (just to be safe) and identifying my home WiFi network by name. So if Google maps think I am within that circle, or the named WiFi is available, I am "at home"

Then I created a Routine that is defined as IF arriving at home THEN do not lock phone(for up to 4 hours). Seems to be working. I'll update otherwise.

I still think Google should address this by making WiFi connections an option for Smart Lock!

TMobile suspension

Lawyers are expensive. You need to find out the reason for the suspension. There's a reason. I'm sure they don't suspend people for no reason. You said it's a business account, it could be nothing you did, but maybe something one of your employees did.
I agree with you I've pretty much dropped the lawyer idea that was just me being upset....the only people using the account are me and my wife. We use it to handle our business. Make phone calls and text mostly and most of the time it's between each other as she is usually about on hour away from me. I opened up an account with Verizon to cover me until TMobile comes up with something. Thanks again for your kind words and advice. It is greatly appreciated all of you.

Upgrade Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2-830F

Sorry I haven't replied to these replies/discussion. The initial replies indicated that it is a "deadend" for upgrading this tablet. The reason I would like to upgrade/update the tablet is that as of now I can not access my email provider. When I try to log-in the message is "upgrade my browser" but there is not an upgrade available for Firefox or for Chromium. As of now I have not checked for access to my bank account but I suspect I will get same result. Have been busy with other things lately.

The discussion that has been posted is informative for me; I know only a wee bit about operating systems, etc. :-(( I logged on today to ask if it might be possible to remove the whole opsys. and install something else. I did this with old computers running Win 95, etc. and installed various Linux distributions, but I have not kept current on doing this sort of thing.

Guess that is a "long enough" explanation of my reason for "upgrading" the tablet.

are you logging into your email via your browser or are you launching your email app when it tells you to upgrade the browser? what email provider are you using?
