Hi, please forgive me if this was posted previously, I've been pouring over this forum for three days now, and have not found an answer
I've owned the (Sprint) Samsung Moment, the HTC hero, then rooted the Hero, the HTC EVO, the Samsung Galaxy S2 and now the S3, so I'm not new to smartphones LOL
When I signed into my google account, on the S3, it sync'd my contacts as per normal, then it spent the next two hours downloading and installing EVERY app I have ever used from ALL of the above mentioned phones, including the rooted hero, without my consent.
and it randomly placed the icons on all of my screens, in random order, that really tweaked my OCD LOL
So I reset it to factory and turned off the background data, then signed into my google account, now it won't sync my contacts nor calendar.
So, I guess I have a two fold question
One. where do I go to turn off this automatic download/install of the apps, and if that isn't possible then
Two. If I go into the playstore from my laptop and uninstall all the apps, will it uninstall the apps from my rooted hero next time I use the phone with the wifi?
Thanks!!
