It's telling me hacker's are in and I have only 3 min to download a certain Google app before all my info is compromised

My phone will power off suddenly, without warning and take 10 or more minutes to come back up, because it optimizes all apps. It's starting to occurr more and more frequently. What's the issue?

Keep it simple; I was raised in a time when we didn't even have T.V., but if the answer is in plain terms, I can follow instruction.
So far, I've placed Wi-Fi and BlueTooth in off-mode. I tried to Clear Cache on Gmail but it won't 'click', no reaction there. Help!
Do you have step-by-step easy guide on how to go from Lollipop to Kit.Kat?
Thank you

My lg g watch will not charge fully also one of my charging connectors is corroded any one have that problem ?

I'm not sure when this occurred but it may have been very recently after updating my phone to android 6.0. Just in case it helps I have a motorola moto G 3rd gen.
I stored all of my photos on my microSD card which was mounted to my phone.
After the android update it asked me to choose whether I was using the SD card to store media on this device (my phone) only or if it was being used as a means of media transfer between devices. I chose the second option, not sure if this is relevant but I'm including it in case it might help me find a solution.
Anyway, I'm not sure when it happened but I only noticed today. One particular folder in my pictures on my SD card is now empty, but the folder still shows up in my moto gallery, and all 64 pictures within it are still there, but they are blank and have no width/height or thumbnail, and if I try to edit them it says that the picture file cannot be opened. If I try to move them anywhere it doesn't work. The image files still have a file size though, rather than being 0.0B.
Have these photos been deleted? Is there any way I can restore the photos? They're very important to me and it would be greatly upsetting if I lost them. The confusing thing is, all the other photos on the SD card are accessible and not blank. I deleted all the .nomedia files I found after reading another suggestion, and it didn't help
Please, if someone can help me get my photos back I would seriously appreciate it!

My phone keeps playing the default notification sound, but I have no idea why. How can I find out?

I have a Moto G 2nd gen running Android 5.0.2.

The screen seems to go to the lock screen quite randomly. Often way before the 5min automatic lock setting.

It even comes on when I am typing an email or text.

Any idea's how I can avoid this annoying behavior?

I just cannot log into my hangouts. Keeps telling me that using wrong password

ANDREW MARTONIK published a great post on Apr 15, 2015 - You can now quickly Google 'find my phone' to locate your misplaced Android device.

I did it and it worked great. So great, I was able to convince the thief to return it - thank you Google and Andrew!!

Trouble is when I thought all was hopeless, I sent the command to erase the phone. It's been off since I activated the Ring command but will erase once it's powered up.

How can I cancel the erase command?

Thanks much!

Hi,
I'm using a Note 5 (SM-N920C) and downloaded the Marshmallow update via Sammobile.com. Tried to flash it on my phone using Odin but it showed an error saying that the md5 hash value is invalid and I don't know what to do. I've read that renaming the file by removing the ".md5" bit helps but I'm not sure if that is safe to do? Also if at all I'm not able to flash the update to my phone, how do I exit the download screen?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Whenever I listen to a downloaded audio file my phone will randomly turn the volume down to zero. It has done it when I am holding it and when it is laying down. Any suggestions?

Marshmallow renewed my love for the LG G3. Well love is a strong word... Anyway the only issue im having is when i knock the screen turns on but its all black other than the notification bar. I still can put in my pattern to unlock tho. Doing a factory reset tonight. Anyone else having this bug?

I jave 2 robot icons. One was facebook messenger and the other was a image resizer. I cannot uninstal them as when clicking icon it says not installed. I cannot reinstal them as google play says " google play is not working" when i try. It is only happening with these 2 programs in google play. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this?
The pic shows the icon im dealing with.
I need to add that this happened because a sd card was removed. The sd card that was removed is no longer useable.

I have three email accounts. Outlook, Yahoo, and GMAIL.
I had GMAIL set up through the stock application set up through the phone setup wizard.
When I added the other accounts the setup wizard combined them in the " Email" application.
I decided to use the GMAIL app as advertised for my other two accounts. I entered them into the configuration.
Problem - I have an email STUCK in the application for the Yahoo account. I delete it, and it just comes back!
So I check the website for Yahoo mail and the message is gone. Not there.
Then I received a bunch of Google updates this morning, and could not use my phone at all. It piped up a toaster message, "Google app has stopped". Then later, "Google Keep has stopped". I had to power the phone off and back on to recover from that.

Maybe I will just use each mail vendor's application instead.

Suggestions?
