you can try this free open source tool, if you remember the passphrase i am sure that will help yout

No,

It's a very usefull tool, but if you only have the passphrase (the phrase used to encrypt the wallet), it's completely useless.
For this tool to work, you need the encrypted wallet and you need to have a clue what your passphrase might have been. Since the wallet is missing, this tool isn't usefull.

, remember the password, remember the name of the purse, and the number to which you can send BTC .... what do I do help




For the seed there are not all words possible. You can look to the list of all allowed words. Maybe you can remember when you see the words.
Here is the list:

There is no way tor recover your phrase. It may be 12, 24 or any number of words and even if you have a list of all words used in creation of phrase, it will take thousands of years to brute force all combinations.


You can try file recovery tools and if you have a chance, you can recover your wallet.

no backup of your phone... there is a code Qr photo




First of all, move this thread to the support thread of the alternative client you're using (the main tech support thread is for the core client). Secondly, don't put ???russian??? words in your question or most people won't understand your question...

As for your question, if you only have the passphrase used to encode your wallet, the name of the wallet and the address, there is little to no chance of restoring your wallet.

In order for you to restore your wallet, you either need the seed phrase (or any other sort of recovery phrase generated by your wallet), a list of private keys or at least a part of the wallet file...
Sorry to bring you the bad news.

If you wallet helt a significant amount of BTC, i'd personally shut down the phone and take it to somebody who knows how to scan the phone's storage for deleted files... Maybe you get lucky and find the wallet file, but don't get your hopes up.
