How would i restart android Bluetooth programmatically and wait till the Bluetooth is on before executing another method.

Sadly, method enable() and disable() are not usable anymore since API 33. If you try to call them, they'll return false and nothing happens on the device.

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothAdapter?hl=en#disable()

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothAdapter?hl=en#enable()

Now every time you need to enable or disable the bluetooth on a device, you must ask to the users if they want by using this action:

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/bluetooth/BluetoothAdapter?hl=en#ACTION_REQUEST_ENABLE

Using Handler you will easily restart bluetooth.

            tvCancel.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View view) {
                    dialogConConnect.dismiss();
                }
            });
            tvOk.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View view) {
                    String sec = edtConC.getText().toString();
                    int second = Integer.parseInt(sec);
                    int minus = second - 1;
                    int mSecond = minus*1000;
                    new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                        @Override
                        public void run() {
                            if(bluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()){
                                bluetoothAdapter.disable();
                            }
                            new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
                                @Override
                               public void run() {
                                    if(!bluetoothAdapter.isEnabled()){
                                        bluetoothAdapter.enable();
                                    }
                                }
                            },1000);
                        }
                    },mSecond);
                    dialogConConnect.dismiss();

                }
            });
            dialogConConnect.show();
        }
    });

You need to listen to Bluetooth states and work accordingly

public class BluetoothRestarter {

private Context mContext;
private RestartListener mListener;
private BroadcastReceiver mReceiver;

public BluetoothRestarter(Context context) {
    mContext = context;
}

public void restart(RestartListener listener) {
    mListener = listener;
    if (mReceiver == null) {
        mReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
            @Override
            public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
                String action = intent.getAction();
                if (action.equals(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_STATE_CHANGED)) {
                    final int state = intent.getIntExtra(BluetoothAdapter.EXTRA_STATE,
                            BluetoothAdapter.ERROR);
                    switch (state) {
                        case BluetoothAdapter.STATE_OFF:
                            BluetoothAdapter.getDefaultAdapter().enable();
                            break;
                        case BluetoothAdapter.STATE_ON:
                            mListener.onRestartComplete();
                            break;
                    }
                }
                context.unregisterReceiver(this);
            }
        };
        mContext.registerReceiver(mReceiver, new IntentFilter(BluetoothAdapter.ACTION_STATE_CHANGED));
    }
}

public interface RestartListener {
    void onRestartComplete();
    }
}

Now you just have to create instance of this class with a context and call restart method with a RestartListener. You will get the callback.
