So to begin with my phone has a mind of its own, this is one of a fair few things that seem odd but ill try explain in as much detail as I can without leading into the next issue.
One of the things I read in regards to the "Apps" section in the phones settings
was to check what apps are using the most data etc.
I have 3 "phone" apps (the system phone app that comes installed on the phone)
2 of them dont have any data usage....never have and the other one uses quite a bit and always has by the looks.
Clicking on the data section for more details, it brings up a massive list of apps that make up this data.
They are all things like Tethering Automation, Silent Logging, Boot Agent, UIBC Virtual Soft Key,
Mirror Link etc.
There's quite a list.....
And at the top of the screen it has "Beaming Service".
What is Beaming Service exactly?
Should 3 of the same app appear?
Obviously you cant install an app 3 times (system app or not).
It'll just update to the latest version, not "re-install" the same app and keep each version on the phone.
Even after updating to the latest sofware and security sofware, it still shows the 3.
I cant deactivate or uninstall any of them......that option is greyed out. Its not rooted.
What could be the cause of this?
Could it be due to someone hacking my phone?
I have had my ex partner (father to my children) hack into and monitor my phones in the past (with the help of a tech expert, friend of ours....no longer a friend of mine).
So this isnt a paranoia situation......Im oddly unfazed by someone hacking my phone......I definitely should be, I know.
Any suggestions or info will be extremely appreciated
