Anyone get a data usage warning on ICS? - HTC Amaze 4G

I have 5G unlimited data plan and get throttled down if I go over that. Problem is I am at 2.50g and can't get rid of the stupid exclamation point in the triangle to go away. Reset a couple times and always there.
Anyone else get this, or I assume it is an error on T-Mobile's part?

I got it today but I have mine set to let me know when I've used 4.3GB, all I did was move the blue line (warning) up to 5GB in Settings>Usage and I was able to use my data again

If you check in settings that monitors your data, it's set to 2.5GB not 5.0GB like your actual limit, go to the setting and raise it to 5.0, that should clear your warning.
Lol dude above me already said what to do, my bad for not reading properly, another tired night.

You don't need juice defender. It'll have a more negative effect on battery as its just another process running in the background.
I got the same message. There was a beta version of one that didn't have the same message. I ended up not using any of them but I am curious as to why we would get that message.
Anyone with any ideas?

didn't plan on using it to be honest, I just was confused by the message. didn't know a carrier could restrict an app like that (or atleast I think that's what's goin on) and don't really like it.

I got the Plus version and I love it. Used the default settings and get great standby time out of it. Unplugged the phone at 10 this morning, made a couple calls and checked e-mail. Been sitting on the desk about 12 hours and still have 95% battery left.

+1. I love this app. If I leave mobile data running, battery life on this phone sucks. With it I run schedules with mobile data where I can still get emails, and use my phone for more than 6 hrs. Don't know about the installation issues, since I've had it for awhile, just wanted to defend the app for those who feel it's not necessary

I believe they just uploaded v 3 on the market and it may take some time to sort it up.
im not sure who said not to use juice and i really dont care. i have noticed an improvement in my battery life by using it, and i am talking hours. If you shell out the money for the ultimate version you can take control over every power eating aspect of your phone. +1 to the developer

SMS Problems - Texts out of order

I got my Note today and when having a conversation with my sister on it I noticed that when I responded to her texts mine would sometimes go above hers. (see image) It wasn't just in GoSMS also happened in the stock program. Has anyone had this issue before and know how to resolve?
Image: my texts are on left. In the set of two light green/yellow texts the first one should be above the green one that is above it, because it is my sister's text and THEN my response in dark green.

I had the same thing and mines even deleted itself. No clue on how to fix this. Hope someone does.
I knew I wasn't the ONLY person that actually wrote text messages that are readable and in english instead of
"oh rly dat wy he knw do dat nomor"
I thought I read somewhere about someone having this issue with android..I'll look and see if I can find it.
My Inspire used to do this too, it started doing it about 1 or 2 months ago. It happens if I fire off a response right after receiving a text although I will say it hasn't happened on the Note yet.

I have had this when i am texting with someone in different time zone. 2 weeks ago i was in Wisconsin texting family in Florida. This issue cropped up.:banghead:
I've even noticed that my responses seem to travel back in time by one minute.
When I instantly respond my text will not only be put above the text I responded to but also my response will be put back in time. Weird. I'll respond to a text I received at 6:53 and my response gets logged in as sent at 6:52.

What's the purpose of this if one doesn't have truly unlimited data? If everywhere i go i need to stream crap, I'm going to max my data plan well before the month is out. I know wifi is different, but it still sounds like a pain in the ass. Am i missing something?

Yeah, i have an account. I guess i was more or less thinking this was some sort of solution or compromise for not including an sd card slot. I should have said downloading, not streaming, my bad. I was probably just looking at it from the wrong angle.
Edit: I was probably more confused than I originally thought. I thought the S3 wasn't going to have an SD card slot. It's hell getting old...

[Q] Increasing signal strength?

I know with my old streak, there were some tricks that would help in low signal areas for me. Flashing radios, and build.prop tweaks definitely helped... is there anything like that for the note? I flashed the UCLD3 radio last night, seems to make it so I can at least get my email without using the rebel wifi we have set up in our office until the IT gurus take it down.
Try pulling your sum card where the bad area is...then wait for a min or two then place back in...a tech told me it helps! '

agree.
I think the term "REBOOT" is used WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY too much.
This thread is making me lol.
Signal strength mainly depends on service in the area, unless you move...you cant really do much to bump up the signal strength.

[Q] Is my Phone Dead?? According to the repair shop it is!!

I bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for Verizon that I ran Casual on unlocked the bootloader, rooted it and put a custom Rom on. Then it all when to heck!! Loaded CleanRom on it but didn't like the Storage and SD card thing so I Flashed the changeup but apparantley I missed something in there becuse it wasn't right it would put apps on the sd card memory but pictures on the internal memory. Said I was out of space for updates and so on. Couldnt get it fixed and flashed Mean Bean to it. It worked for 3 days and began boot looping and I tried factory restore and It says something about efs files E:failed to mount /efs (Invalid Argument). Sent it to repair shop in Irving Tx. they have had it 2 weeks and they say if they can't fix it by Monday, there going to ship it back to me, still broken. Can this be fixed or do I have a $600.00 paperweight

Thank you very much for the link, looks pretty complicated, I have only rooted 3 phones. 2 Motorola Droids 1 was an X2 and an LG Spectrum. This is very complicated stuff. The shop that had my phone is sending it back to me tomorrow, no charge they say the only way it can be fixed is under warranty, which I have voided by unlocking the bootloader and rooting it.

This is really not a very complicated procedure. Everything you would have to do you can look up and find out how to do it via Google. Its better than having to pay $60 to have it JTAGed. I'm not even sure if JTAGing it would be the way to go seeing as how it giant hard bricked and the steps to fix it are fairly explained in that thread. If you cant do what the thread explains find a techie family member or friend, show them the thread and ask them to do it.

The people you have been talking to apparently don't know jack diddly ****, look up MobileTechVideos. He is the communities go to guy and has been JTAGing Note 2s for quite a while. Don't believe everything you hear from these repair shops, most of them won't even know what the hell a JTAG is let alone if its available, which it is.
I have a very bad feeling about this shop, I'm pretty sure they're going to screw you pretty hard when you could've sent it off for $60 and had it JTAGed.

Romotx - You jumped into the pool when you started flashing, but then you didn't want to learn how to swim. Did you even try typing the commands in the linked thread? That's how it works you type commands carefully and when you get an error you look that error up and try it again. Got a new error, look that one up, and so on. The more you do, the more help you get here. But it sounds like you were not very careful to start with to bork your phone that bad.
It's too late for you, but for others, when something goes wrong take a step back and take a breath. Do some reading, make sure you understand where you went wrong, and what and why you are doing next to your phone. What ever you did should have been an easy fix at some earlier point in time.
But good luck in getting your phone repaired.

Yes and that link that was posted earlier tells you exactly how to fix it. You just don't want to use it. If you can't get into CWM or TWRP try it on what shows up when you boot into recovery, for Christ's sake it's even telling you to use ADB commands which is exactly what that thread tells you to do. If you had pages attention you would know that.
Instead of taking it to a "shop" that obviously doesn't know its ass from a hole in the ground you should listen to the people in the community who have been through this before.

We did help you! You now know that you don't take your phone to a "repair shop"! Lol.
But seriously, listen to dude above, or wait for droidstyle or kintwofan to pop in. They'll answer the same way they do every other time this happens. Search for "bricked note 2 xda" and add "kintwofan" or "droidstyle" to the mix (WILDCARD) and see how many hits you get. Doesn't matter if the symptoms aren't exact - TRY IT.
What bad can happen? You gonna brick your phone? Hell, it may even start working again!?

Its very odd that it was advertised recently then, hmmm I have to see what I can find out.
As for the option that someone else linked earlier, have you tried it yet? It seems like the perfect solution to your problem. Granted you can't get into recovery the screen it shows you tells you to use ADB which is exactly what the fix uses.
As for beating you over the head, what the hell do you expect? You come asking for advice and then don't take ANY of it and act like we are all fools.

I never acted like anybody was a fool. I have been lurking and reading for years on here. I respect everyone's advice here! I have a $600.00 phone that I screwed up,yes thats what you have to do with Verizon to keep your unlimited data plan that they grandfathered you into and now when you want to upgrade it's pay full price for the phone or you get 2Gb. plan, and I don't feel confident enough to fix it like you guys suggest. I have never used ADB, I have never had a brand of phone where you could unlock the bootloader, I'm not a command and scripts and whatever voodoo you guys do to these phones.kind of guy. I can build computers and I have rooted and put roms on 2 other phones. I can't afford to buy another phone and in this backwoods hick town when you talk to anybody about rooting a phone they have no idea what the heck your even talking about.
