every time i do something to my site
like enable dev mod
upload a plugin
update a plugin 

my sever changes permissions from 777 to 664 and 755
in ow_static and ow_smarty/template c

That's what all servers do, and it does not change, it sets the permissions for all newly created files, if you enable dev mode the files are recompiled, which means old ones are deleted and new ones are created.
