Help All my apps disappeared except the ones by Google and Xiaomi! (Pocophone F1)

I checked my phone and all of a sudden almost all of my apps are not there. All of them except the ones made by Google or Xiaomi.

I checked on the play store and they were all uninstalled. Restarting the phone doesn't do any good.

I don't know what can cause this? Is it a virus? Did someone hack my account? Did I "butt reset" my phone as when I checked it it was unlocked?

Is there any way to restaure them or do I have to just reinstall everything? How do check if something else is missing?

By the way all my data is still here, photos, music...

Thx

Text a photo

I am truly a total novice when it comes to cell phones. I have the Motorola e5 Plus and would like to send/text a photo I took with the phone. How do I do that? I have 5 digit number to text to. I tried to read about it and understand it but I guess I am just not understanding what I have read. All help is appreciated.

Hacked?

I was talking to a friend and my screen froze.. my bluetooth earbuds were still stating that they were connected, yet no picture. NOTHING. and since it had froze, I force powered it off and back on... again, my earbuds state that they are connected, but no screen. NOW, heres the kicker, when I plug in a usb and connect to my laptop, when I look to the left side were the files and folders are... where it says Galaxy J7 Star there should be 2 branches off of it like card and phone... but after the force power down.. theres nothing there either...
Did the files that would run my phone somehow get deleted?? If do, is there somewhere I can go to download the proper files that coinside with my device to get it working again..?

After using Developer Tools can't access sites

I have an odd issue. I was using the developers tool on my G6 to connect to Chrome on my Surface Pro 4. I worked with two sites inspecting them. After disconnecting my phone from the system I can no longer access those two sites when on Wifi only.

I can access all other sites on the phone via chrome.

When connecting to the two sites that I can not access I just get a time out error and nothing loads. Also the sites will not load on Opera and Firefox how ever all other sites are available without issue.

I have restarted the phone and router. I have cleared the cache on the phone.

Please note that when I access the sites on Mobile Data they work. The sites were just fine on all other Wifi enabled devices in the house.

What am I missing?

Built in voice recorder issue - important

I'm writing my thesis and i made some interviews with the built in voice recorder. I've made many. But one of the most important recording cannot be found. The recording is approx 2 hours long, it can happen that accidentaly i didn't save it, because i pushed the wrong button :( but im not sure. The only thing is sure that it cannot be found between the recordings.
Is there any solution to recover that file? (3 days has passed i've tried many programs but it wasn't a succes). My phone is not rooted yet, but in case it would sopve i would do it happily.

Any advice would help, it's really important because the interview cannot be managed again :(.

Thank you in advance.

App Inventor Download text file with TextView using Html.fromHtml

When I use this code it displays the text in the file Myfilecontainingtext.abc
How can I make it instead download the file to the downloads directory?

Java:
        String html1 = "<a href='http://www.mywebsite.com/Myfilecontainingtext.abc'>Download Myfilecontainingtext.abc to Downloads directory</a>";
        TextView textView1 = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
        textView3.setText(Html.fromHtml(html1));
        textView1.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());

Apps How to learn which app is running, and kill some of them?

Hi, i am looking for a way to create an app which will run on the background, and when i press both volume down and volume up button it will kill all the app that currently running (some of them).

I nailed the event click both volume button and background service but i dont know how i can kill another app thats not from my app's activity.

I would prefer non-rooting required but if its not possible, rooting is fine since the purpose of this project is mainly education.

Thank you for reading.

Edit: I am not looking for a block of code, just some keywords or solutions. Sure some code example would be nice.

Help Twrp for the LG Artiso 3

Edit: I have twrp made but have no way to flash it yet, fastboot won't let me flash it and gives me an unknown command error so I'm looking for an alternative tool to LGUP that can flash partitions. I do have a dev patched LGUP but it tells me my DLL is out of date and won't flash my recovery.img

So if anyone knows anything like SP Flashtool for Snapdragon devices please let me know

If anyone else has this device and think they can develop on it then please post on here and help some of us out. I don't know how new this device is, or if a lot of people have it but I just got it for free today and I'm using it for service but it definitely needs TWRP. Hopefully some development can happen

Keyboard over BottomSheet(Dialog) problem

Hello people.

I do use BottomSheetDialog and there are some Edittext etc...
But the problem is that when the keyboard pops up, not the whole
BottomSheet is over the Keyboard.

I've tried:
d.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE);
and any SOFT_INPUT parameter. Nothing is changing ._.

MainActivity
Java:
        final BottomSheetDialog d  = new BottomSheetDialog(this);
        Objects.requireNonNull(d.getWindow()).setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_ADJUST_RESIZE);
        d.setContentView(R.layout.content_bottomsheet_new_pocket_item);
        d.getBehavior().setHideable(true);
        d.getWindow().setSoftInputMode(WindowManager.LayoutParams.SOFT_INPUT_STATE_HIDDEN);

        button2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
           @Override
           public void onClick(View view) {
               d.show();
           }
        });

Help Super slow downlaods

I looked all over the net for solutions for my issue, but to zero fruition. Any app I try to down load from the app store by google, or even the apkpure app, it takes a very long time to download and install. For example I'm trying to download an hourly reminder app, and it has been nearly 20 min running. The same applies to apkpure.. However regular net speed are not affected and neither is net downloads... Only app store downloads. Any, and all, help is appreciated.
