I just got my HTC Sensation back after it was in for repairs and i learned a few things which makes me ask the last 2 questions as well as gave me a new problem hence the first so lets start.
Time issues first:
I send this phone in never having done anything to it but used as is and when i send it in was it at newest update from HTC.
When i got it back now however is it loosing time fast. Sometimes it is worse than others. But i can't figure out whats doing it.
What i find even more strange is before i send it for rep did the Auto time update work fine now that even also failed so I had to get ClockSync to help me keep updated.
I am just wondering what could cause this?
Apps/Games info:
Well after i got my phone back was i sad to see that all my apps and games where well reset no settings remembered and progress in games was whiped.
But when i read about many of the backup features out there it seems they can also backup the app/game it self but that would mean they won't be able to update via the Store anymore is this true? Plus what would be best to use to avoid this next time I have to send it to repair?
The next part of this is the Permisions some games want on a phone or app's is there anyway to download a game or app and keep it unable to get access to things i do not find a game/program of this art needs, and in case it can live without then use it knowing your stuff is safe from its prying eyes and needs?
Now time for the last one.
root/superuser/rom/flashing info:
I read many places that rooting a phone is not enough you also need to make it super user access plus s-off is this true and could someone explaine the superuser and S-off part for me?
Also as i have planned to flash my phone what is the best way to make sure all my apps/games progress and settings are saved and if possible reinstalled when done flashing but still with it to be able to be updated via google play store which i read somewhere it is not?
And is there anything i should be aware off beside finding a good ROM to try out, root the phone, s-off and superuser access as well?
