    If you can't uninstall the offending apps and files, then it may be time for a factory reset. Make sure your wanted data is backed up and you sign out of your Google accounts (you could stay signed in, but would then likely need your login info to set it up again). Set up the phone again without automatically restoring apps and data.

    Reinstall your apps direct from Google Play and check the reviews for complaints to make sure it wasn't one of them causing the problem. Do not turn on the option to install apps from unknown sources, which is likely what allowed those other apps into your phone.

    Welcome to Android Central! It's not clear to me -- did you actually download an apk from that site and install it? Installing apks from random websites is a good way to get malware, since you can't be sure if the site vetted those apks for malware or not. If the apk is for an app that you normally have to pay for, that means it's pirated, and that really increases the risk for malware, since hackers will target popular apps that people will feel so clever about installing for "free."
