Is it an accepted fact that the times reported on ATT's data usage web page are not accurate? I know for a fact that my wife used 11MB of data at the gym at around 8AM yesterday. ATT's site is reporting that the data was used at 12:02AM. Check it out:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

If this is true, then that explains some other large downloads reported at random times in the very early morning (2AM-4AM). Those one could have easily just been her using Google Play Music at the gym if the times are all wrong.
EDIT: Upon further review of the fine print....."Usage timestamps can be off by up to 4 hours." (8 hours in this case?) Anyone elses off by this much?

Take a look at "uptime": 71 days. And not a single reboot since the day I received it. And that's with using it every single day; a full 10 days of use! (That's scary actually haha) Just insane isn't it? What a great tablet!

Same. It worked just fine for me for the past few months, no lag at all.
In the past week though, I've switched to Opera, as a) I was missing having a start page with common bookmarks, and b) mobile.theverge.com (which I visit often) has rendering issues, often not displaying any of the text (same issue in Dolphin HD for some reason).
Has anyone used this option in the settings? It gives you a day old usage from minutes to data. The only thing I noticed is that it labels minutes as megabytes. Ha

Why did they call this 'Activate this device'?? Never looked at it until now, MB glitch is kind of funny though. Especially since the data usage is listed in kb!
I've used it and what it does is refresh your PRL and firmware and tries to talk with Sprint to refresh tour activation settings. Once it does it displays all your plan data.

It's funny because its entirely different from Wireless and Networks > Usage.
I guess it's their to force an activation if hands free fails, and they just needed to put something in there if the phone IS active already.

Well the usage of android is not the best way to check usage and even says on it, the one you see in the activation is what sprint sees

So a day or two ago Google Services randomly ate up a huge amount of my data. And all within about a second. I really can't figure out why it happened. I was going to see a movie so I turned off my phone, and when I turned it back on, I got a data usage warning and after checking my settings it shows this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Umm... what?! Even with Onavo Extend, Google Services somehow consumed a big chunk on my data, all in about a second:
Can someone please explain this?
Thanks in advance!
Bump.
The images aren't showing up, but I would guess that there's something wrong with the report. Data use will be limited by the connection speed, so in any 1 second a mobile device can't upload or download much data at all, even on the fastest connections.

Hmm, I wonder why the images aren't working.
And that's what I'm confused about... the data usage is just too much and too sudden. The only possible explanation I could have for that would be it was trying to use data when I had my phone off or something, but that doesn't really make any sense.
The thing is, I got a message from T-Mobile about my usage AND that's what it shows in my settings, so it can't be that both data tracking services aren't correct.

OK, so I normally have great data service in the Seattle/ Federal Way area but for the last day and a half it keeps dropping to edge or no Data at all. Maybe it's the weather? Anyone else having this issue! Driving me nuts! [emoji37]

I'm in Seattle and I haven't had any issues.
I was streaming on milk music all day at work in West Seattle and my connection dropped a few times.
Wasn't sure if it was the app or something funky with my connection since I just started using it recently...

I work near the Space Needle and mine was *awful* all day long!
Hi guys,
I hope someone here can help me figure out a solution to this problem. It seems that every time I switch on my data (4G, 3G, etc.) Google Play Services suddenly kicks into overdrive and downloads an insane amount of data for no reason that I can figure out.
My first indication this was happening was when my mobile operator turned off my data a few days after getting the phone because I had already hit my monthly limit (3GB)! I switched off my data until my new bill arrived and when I turned it back on again on the 14th of this month, it started happening again. I went into settings and selected "restrict background data" and this stopped it, but my phone wasn't working as I expected it, as I'm sure you can imagine. Over the previous weekend, I was staying at a B&B. I turned on data for an hour and unselected "restrict background data" so I could use the phone like normal. I left the phone down for that hour doing nothing before I remembered I left data on (the horror!) and discovered it downloaded a further 300-odd MB's in that time.
I've attached some screens for you to look at. This is a new phone, but this behavior is totally alien to me. Can anyone help?

RESOLVED:
Called HTC Support and they were as surprised as anyone would be. They reluctantly decided that the best, even though the most primative, form of action here would be Factory Reset.
It worked, so I'm glad I have my phone working as it should now.
