Grammar question(adverbs and adjectives)

I was teaching a class related to adverbs and adjectives and we know that an adverb describes and action and an adjective describes a noun, place, people, etc.

But the following sentence came up in my exercise and i couldn’t understand it:

When i told him the truth, he was QUIET/QUIETLY.

I know that the right answer is QUIET but i can’t seem to know how to explain to my student that even though WAS is a verb you have to use quiet.

Can someone help me understand it and explain please

Not allowing me to download apps

We bought the QLED 4K 55’ TV and we have been trying to download apps but it only says that the Stub Hub is being updated.

We have tried to update the software, the time zone, we rested the TV and Stub Hub, but nothing works.

Any recommendations?
