I am using 3G watchdog + APNdroid since a while now.
I am using them in 2 Samsung Galaxy S devices.
Both where great at the beginning. and then awkward data counting where started to happen.
It is always in the Upload (transmitted) data
it shows unbelievable data transmitting (up to 60 mb per day) although I never send anything from my phone (email, youtube upload.... etc)
it takes up my quota very quickly and that is not the only problem ,... actually this is the tiny problem.
The HUGE problem is that even though I reached 99% of the quoted data very quickly and I use APNdroid to turn off the 3G connection.
That data is still counting with the provider,.. even though I never turn the 3G on.
e.g.1 : in my first phone the quota was 120mb/month. for the first two weeks every thing was fine and my total usage was 14mb which is ok. suddenly in one nights it jumped up to 121mb of total usage !!!!!! I checked it immediately with my provider ... it was 115 which is a very acceptable difference.
The APNdroid worked fine by turning off the 3G. but two days later when I checked it with my provider it jumped up to 240 mb !!!!!!!!!
e.g.2 in my second phone (actually my friend's) he started to using the device and the 3G watchdog on Nov 5th (attached is his daily log from 3G watchdog) it seems there is a very high upload activity with 14 mb on average per day sometimes up to near 40mb/day
my friend quota was 250mb/month and the 3G watchdog + APNDroid again did a good job by terminating the connection when it is 99%.
but unfortunately when we checked it with the provider it was 490mb usage !!!! (1 mb extra will cost $0.53) and that is a lot of money.
again one day later (today) it is 502 mb !!!!!
I am really don't know what is happening here and why it is giving different numbers than the provider's ALSO I am not sure where is this upload activities is coming from .
Please help me out here
Thanks a lot
