1gb 3G Charges in one day, on WiFi the whole time

Hello,
This is my first time posting, thank you in advance to anyone who can help me!
I'll start with my phone: iPhone 4s, running ios 5.0
I woke up to a text message this morning saying that I had already used 50% of my data plan usage, meanwhile the start of my billing cycle was only four days ago! I have never ever even gone past .3 gb in one cycle, so imagine my shock!
I called Verizon, and they said that my phone was active on 3g yesterday for 9 hours, despite the fact that I was at work and on WiFi the entire time. I only checked my email once or twice, did a few text messages, and as usual I closed all my apps when I was done (I hate leaving apps running in the background). I did nothing out of the ordinary, and definitely wasn't doing anything that would have used 3g for 9 hours straight. I had the WiFi icon displayed the entire day as the router signal reaches my desk. Never did it say 3g as the icon in the corner.
The only other out of the ordinary thing that happened was this morning I received a prompt to update to ios 6.1.3 (which I didn't do).
The representative put me on hold and talked to the techs. She came back and said that the techs told her I need to update my operating system and it would fix the problem. She said "There was a known issue that even though the icon is a WiFi symbol, the phone could actually be connected to 3g instead and the update would fix that." I just don't really believe that. I am still running ios 5.0 and it works great for me. I've had the phone for over a year and have never updated. So how can I have this issue all of a sudden where my WiFi icon is lying to me? And what could have it been doing for 9 hours straight?
Luckily she is going to give me a credit for any overage charges I may encounter, but I really don't want to update my ios as it works very well for me.
I'm looking to see if there is any truth to Verizon's solution, should I update? I've heard horror stories about 6.1.3 so I'm very hesitant, but I also don't want to run into this problem again and get charged for 3g data I didn't really use since I thought I was on WiFi. Is it really my operating system?
Thanks again in advance, I really appreciate it!

Thanks for the reply! I understand what you mean about the standby not being connected, but I guess what I meant is whenever I was actively using the phone I was on WiFi. I didn't use the phone in any way that was out of the ordinary, like I wasn't sitting at my desk streaming anything or surfing the internet. I always close out of my apps so they are not running in the background. Most of my push notifications are turned off. I just don't understand 1-how I managed to go through 1gb in one day when I didn't use the phone any more than I usually do, nor did I use it while unconnected to WiFi and 2-would updating the ios to 6.1.3 really fix the problem like the Verizon people said it would even though I haven't ever had a problem with 5.0 before.
Thanks again for the reply!

  • Displaying wrong date(One day earlier then the current)

    Has anyone experienced this problem. I have an inputText field that is to take in a date value. When I use the DateTimeConverter to check if the date is valid, the returned date valu is always one day earlier than the user input day.
    How do I resolve this. Is there a setting that I need to change?
    Thanks in advance.

    Which JSF Implementation is this code extract from?
    I am using IBM WebSphere 6.0 and also experiencing a problem with an InputText displaying the day before. For example when the InputText value is set to 21-Apr-2007, 20-Apr-2007 is displayed. Here is a simplified version of what I'm doing:
    Page - inputTextDates.jsp
         <h:inputText id="opDate" styleClass="inputText"
              binding="#{inputTextDatesBean.htmlInputText}">
         </h:inputText>
    Request-Scope Bean - InputTextDates.java
         private HtmlInputText htmlInputText;
         public HtmlInputText getHtmlInputText() {
              if (this.htmlInputText == null) {
                   this.htmlInputText = new HtmlInputText();
                   // create a calendar for manipulating dates for the chosen timezone
                   GregorianCalendar gregorianCalendar = new GregorianCalendar(TimeZone.getTimeZone("US/Central"));
                   gregorianCalendar.setTime(new Date(107, 3, 21));
                   // create a date time converter for the timezone
                   DateTimeConverter dateTimeConverter = new DateTimeConverter();
                   dateTimeConverter.setTimeZone(gregorianCalendar.getTimeZone());
                   // create a calendar picker
                   HtmlInputHelperDatePicker htmlInputHelperDatePicker = new HtmlInputHelperDatePicker();
                   htmlInputHelperDatePicker.setId("myId"); // have to give an ID
                   // populate the input text
                   this.htmlInputText.setValue(gregorianCalendar.getTime());
                   this.htmlInputText.setConverter(dateTimeConverter);
                   this.htmlInputText.getChildren().add(htmlInputHelperDatePicker);
              return this.htmlInputText;
         public void setHtmlInputText(HtmlInputText htmlInputText) {
              this.htmlInputText = htmlInputText;

  • My birthdays appear one day out in the Calendar!

    I've upgraded to an iPhone 4s but my birthdays appear one day out in the Calendar!

    The problem seems to be that the iCloud Time Zone overrides your iphone Time Zone.
    If you are sure that your phone time zone is correct.
    Start iCloud on your computer. Log in with your AppleID and Password.
    Click on your name (top righthand side) in the window I suspect it will show Pacific Time in the Time Zone.
    If like me you live in New Zealand click on Pacific and in the world map click on New Zealand.
    Now New Zealand Standard Time should show in the Time Zone. Click done.
    You will now have to change the birthdays again to the right day in Contacts in iCloud or your Phone for the last time.
    Good luck

  • Calc Script runs slow one day and fast the next?

    We are on Essbase 11.1.2.1. When we run calc scripts to load our actuals and run some allocation scripts, the difference in running time for the same exact script is very different day to day. One day three hours the next 45 minutes. Our servers are just for Essbase. We are on Windows 2008 R2. Has anyone else run into this or have any idea how we could figure out the reason for this. Thanks.

    Thanks.  In that case, I would try to grab the cube statistics - especially number of upper-level and input blocks, compression ratio and fragmentation (in EAS you can only see one of the two fragmentation statistics, 'Average Clustering Ratio', not 'Average Fragmentation Quotient') before each run, just to see if they're varying wildly.  Also, if your calc scripts log summary information (is there a SET MSG command in them?  If not you could try SET MSG SUMMARY) then Essbase will write high-level statistics on how much work was done to the application log.
    You can see which cubes are loaded (and consuming memory) in the EAS treeview - if they have a check (tick) mark they are loaded.  But you can also see current activity by right-clicking on the server in the EAS treeview and selecting Edit | Sessions.   That will show whether there are other operations (loads, calcs, reports, restructures etc) occurring at the same time.
    If none of the above give any clues and this is a virtual box (or you have SAN storage) you really will need someone who understands your infrastructure to help.
    I'm assuming these are BSO cubes, by the way!

  • Ok one day out of the blue my ipod just stopped working it wouldnt turn on nothing but after recovering it, it's fine now but there is only one problem my screen wont work i can't do anything on it not even unlock it please someone help!!!!

    Ok one day out of the blue my ipod just stopped working it wouldnt turn on nothing but after recovering it, it's fine now but there is only one problem my screen wont work i can't do anything on it not even unlock it please someone help!!!!

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • I put my iPod charging, but it wont charge. The Apple logo appears on the screen for five seconds and then it goes off again. Afterwards, it does it again and again and again. I can leave it 1 hour or day charging and it will be doing this the whole time.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Not Charge
    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • I have just bought iphone 5 and i have a problem in charging it , firstly it took a long time to charge when i opened it to the first time , and its nearly dont charge on 110 output, and its taking a long time to charge on 220 reaches 50% in 1 hour

    I have just bought iphone 5 and i have a problem in charging it , firstly it took a long time to charge when i opened it to the first time , and its nearly dont charge on 110 output, and its taking a long time to charge on 220 reaches 50% in 1 hour is this normal?

    The charger block is universal and is able to handle multiple votages.  One hour to reach 50% seems fine to me if the phone was completely flat to start with.  Just leave it on charge for as long as it takes to reach 100%.  I leave mine connected overnight all the time and it does not harm the battery

  • EA series 4500 and 6500 routers disconnecting once per day, everyday at the same time

    I have had an EA4500 and EA6500 have the following problem:
    I have time warner cable internet, Motorola SB6141 modem.  The modem connects to an Ooma Telo.  The 4500 and then 6500 are connected to the ooma.
    I have this problem when the routers where placed in front of the ooma as well.
    1 time per day, always at the same time, the router stops working.  for both wired and wireless connections.  i need to unplug the router to work.  The modem and ooma continue to work, so i know there is internet getting passed from the modem to the ooma. However, the internet gets disruptted with the routers.
    this must be a settings issue with the router.  where everyday at the same time, maybe when timewarner changes over or something the router does not pick it up?? i dont know. i have gone through 2 routers and same identical problem.
    thanks.

    The DHCP lease time from your ISP might be set on that time that is why 2 routers are behaving the same way. And the routers may not be renewing the ip address successfully, that is why you are losing the internet connection. What you can do is to clone the mac address and you can do that by accessing the router page.
    If you are using the linksys smart wifi interface, go to connectivity > internet settings > click on clone my pc's mac > click on apply.

  • Outlook and owa freezes every day, sometimes at the same time

    Hello,
    I have very strange problem! 2 users complain that the outlook hangs every day, approximately at the same time. But other 200 users work fine. I can't see any error on the mail servers ( two servers exchange 2010 sp 3 with dag) Outlook can hangs for 15 min
    with user, who has mailbox 1,5 Gb and about 3-5 min with user, who has mailbox 150 Mb.
    When outlook hangs, owa logon also hangs and then they start working simultaneously.
    It doesn't depend on the server where I try to run owa. I tried to move mailbox to new database, but it didn't resolve my problem.
    There are no any scheduled tasks on exchange servers at this time. No performans issues. Maybe some problems of connectivity with AD, but I don't see any suspicious event.

    Hi,
    It sounds like mailbox curroption. I'd suggest you move those two mailboxes to another mailbox database, and then try againt to see if this works.

  • Can multiple PCs access one remote panel at the same time?

    I've written a program in labview 7.1 to monitor/control a labview application running in the test cell through Remote Panel. I and my coworker can remotely monitor and/or control this labview application individually. But if my coworker has the remote panel displayed on his PC and I try to get the remote panel on my PC, I get a labview error (63) as below:
    "LabVIEW:  Serial port receive buffer overflow.
    LabVIEW:  The network connection was refused by the server."
    My question is: Can multiple PCs access one remote panel at the same time?
    Thanks in advance!

    Sorry I wasn't clear. The remote panel license is separate from the number of LabVIEW development licenses. Pricing information on remote panel licenses can be found here.

  • Using more than one input device at the same time

    Is it possible to use more than one input device at the saem time in logic express. For example I have a fire wire input device and a usb input device can I get Express to recognize both of these at once and so have a total of 4 ins which would be great since Im transfering tracks off my ADAT and it would be less track to have to line up.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    yes, it should be possible by creating an aggregate device. Google for it or search this forum. There are many tutorials how to set it up.
    Have fun!

  • Using more than one front panel at the same time

    I have a main program where I can call sub vi’s and then the sub vi’s front panel opens.
    I want to use/see/operate more than one front panel at the same time. How I can do it?
    For example when I close the main program it won’t close before I close all the sub vi’s front panels.
    I use event case to call these sub vi’s. Can I close all vi's using one button?

    I wouldn't use subVIs for display, at least not if you plan to have them open all the time. Instead, I would suggest that you have one loop with a FP VI which will talk to the FP all the time and will pass to the data to the other loops through a variable or a functional global.
    Then, you can use a tab control to organize your display. If there is no specific reason for not having the graphs in the same VI, you can use a tab control to organize it. If you can't, you can also use subpanels to display the VIs and put several subpanels in your VI.
    If you still want to display the VIs seperately, you can control their positions and sizes through their proerty nodes, but I don't think there's any reason for this.
    To learn more, I suggest you read the LabVIEW style guide. I think it has some tips about application design.
    Try to take over the world!
