4 android gurus ,Android data timer

So I don't know how many of ya'll use Metro PCS. I do since 2003. I have been paying unlimited data for the longest time, I never had issues with slow data , but since TMobile took over I get these "over the 35gig data" text messages.
And I loose internet like no data transfer for short periods of times and gaming just lags , takes for ever to download anything ,but the first 35 gigs are quick.
So I'm wondering , to all the android gurus , " Is there a way , to shut off the data meter or timer what ever it is. So that the service provider won't know how much data I'm using ?
Like is there a hack or some type of mod I can do to the phone and tablet ?

I use anywhere from 70 to 80 gigs a month.

Your carrier sees everything you use....
They provide the data and keep a record of it


I know , that's why I'm asking if there is mod we can do to the phone or something that can be done so they dont know how much one uses ,I mean theres all types of ways to steal , cause bottom that's what I'm asking how to rob them for data , u can rob electricity you rob water , you can evrything, there has to be a way, I need a good hacker, they should know . Thanks bud .

Let's keep the discussion civil, please.


Now to address the question raised in this thread:
No, unfortunately there isn't a way to prevent your carrier from tracking how much data you have used. That is all actually tracked on the carrier-side of things; even factory resetting your phone will not restart the counter. I know that's not the answer you were hoping for but it's the truth, and that's all we can offer. :)

I also sincerely witch there was a way..and actually I wouldn't consider that "stealing"..because after all you are paying for the service..that in fact isn't unexpensive and didn't come cheap at all..more over..IT IS THEM the ones that are stealing from us by reducing the speed for a service you are paying full and not at a reduce price..

This bitches always find a way to screw us over..where is this humanity going to like this???..every day I hate more and more and more and more humanity..

What else can I say?, that I love it?..I don't think so.
