Data plan being used even when its OFF

I have the weirdest problem on my device
My data plan is always set to be disable (off). I only use wifi, and never use data plan
Even so, i receive a message every day for my carrier saying they have discounted $ from my plan because i used data plan. I should receive this message only those days that i use the data plan conection.
How the **bleep** is an app or android or some system activating my data plan even if its set off ??
Can android or a third party app activate data plan? I guess not.
Does stamina change this somehow?
This immediately started the day i bought myself the Z1c. Didnt have this on my moto g or optimus hd.
i have no idea else.. i tried everything.
When i go to the screen that shows the apps that used data, its complete blank with 0,00Bytes used.
as i said, this didnt happen with my previous phones, so im pretty much sure that is something with the z1c.
any help is apreciated.

Not at all. no aps using it. It must be something that the sony device is making. didnt had this since one week ago, after i purchased the z1c, so its definetely something with this device.
Im making tests every single day to find out what could be causing this. (device is stock, no root nor unlocked BL):
- Next tests
remove all apns
- yet disabled:
4g - no effect
autoupdate sus - no effect
geotag the photos - no effect
sony account manager - no effect
sony taken as adm cell - no effect
removed the sony location service cell - no effect
config updater app - no effect 
re setting apn - no effect
off stamina + wifi spot - testing
APN defaul (no suppl) - testing
only data apn (no mms) - testing
 example: 
day 7: data was off but i was charged for using it
day 8(today): data was off but i was already charged for using it

  • Cellular data being used even when at home with Wi Fi

    I notice that sometimes (actually pretty often), my cellular data is being used even if I'm at home with Wi Fi available. At this rate, my monthly amount of gigabytes is getting used up pretty quickly. It's gotten to where I have to go into settings and turn off cellular data whenever I come home. Has anyone else had this problem?

    You must be losing wifi sometimes. The iPad uses wifi, unless it's not available. Then it switches to 3/4G. Turning Off cellular is the best procedure.

  • Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when  it is not. How can I fix this issue?

    Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tells me that the file is being used even when  iall other programs are closed. How can I fix this issue?

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

    The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval (I think every 5 or 10 min) when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox. It does not happen if Firefox is not running (i.e. it does not start by itself). The OS is Windows 7 SP1 and this begun after installing the Firefox update 5.0.1.

  • Data being used even on WiFi? Lumia 1520

    I recalled this being an issue with users in the past with other devices until GDR3 fixed this. Somehow on my Lumia 1520 I used over 3GB of "Media Streaming" data according to Data Sense in the last 2 weeks. I don't see how this is possible as I'm connected to wifi 95% of the time. If I'm not connected to wifi I don't do more than send texts, a few instant messages or emails. I don't stream videos and I have both Xbox Music and auto upload of pics and videos turned off.
    This concerns me greatly as I am now 680MB away from hitting my 6GB limit and I still have 9 days to go. Overage charges are BRUTAL on my carrier (Rogers). I assume that even when it shows wifi as connected it's actually not connected. I will now have to disconnect and reconnect to wifi to play it safe before I stream or view any online media with my 1520.
    Anyone else seeing this issue or have any suggestions?

    It is far more likely you did not notice you were on Cellular data at some point. And 680 MB in 9 days when (by your own words) you are on Wi-Fi 95% of the time should not be a problem. if your usage pattern is as you say it is (with sending SMS not even being on data anyway.
    Well on average I use about 3-4GB a month previously with my Lumia 920. With my Lumia 1520 I have reached 6GB in 3 week with still just over a week to go. I've had to turn off my data completely to keep myself from overage charges. My concern is that I don't understand why data is being used while connected to wifi at home. If I have my device setup to connect to wifi automatically at home, and as you suggested, I have it set to stay connected to wifi after the screen times out.. then why is it still using data over wifi? And to make it worse the phone tricks me by showing me an active wifi connection in the status bar. So I'll be at home, comfortably surfing the next, streaming media while under the assumption that I'm connected to wifi since it shows I'm connected to wifi but in reality I'm using data. Why do I have to manually disable wifi and re-enable it just to feel assured I'm using wifi? I never had to do this on my Lumia 920.
    So far in the last 4 days I've only witnessed my phone hold connection to wifi over a period of several hours twice without me manually needing to disconnect and reconnect again. But sadly, there was no obvious answer to why it worked those 2 random times that it did. Is the issue my router? Do I have a botched device that needs replacement? I've consulted others on WPCentral's forums and found several others reporting the same issue though it doesn't appear widespread. I just need to know if I need to up my data plan to 10GB to cover myself from constant overages.

    I will try that. Thank you.  I am hoping to buy a wifi hotspot, but wondered what type of data plan I should get if I were to use it consistantly for 8 hours a day (only on saturdays and sundays).  A great tool for work & presentations!!
    It will use minimal internet bandwidth unless your content is streaming from web>iPad>AppleTV. 
    Local network comms for content already on the iPad (eg presentations) will not generally use internet bandwidth apart from protected iTunes material that requires brief internet authorisation.

  • What does it mean if my ipod charges only when its off

    ok my ipod charges only when its off , ex.i plug my charger in while its on but it doesnt charge at all, not even if i put it in the pc  usb ports.However wheni put the chargerr in the ipod and turn it off, then come back an hour later or so it is charged up.Anybody knows what does it mean when it does that.keep in mind the ipod doesnt charge whille its on.

    It means that when your ipad is running with your charger connected, it is using about as much electrical energy as your charger is supplying to your battery.  When your ipad is shut down there are no apps or programs running so all of the charger's output is devoted to recharging the battery.  Your ipod battery may be running down a bit because of age, or you could possibly have too many apps running at the same time.  Running gamming applications uses quite a bit of power.  I'm making the assumption that your charger is functioning properly.  Also, charging via the USB port on your computer is not as efficient as using your wall charger since the charging current provided by the computer usb port is a bit less than the wall charger.  If you use an iPad wall charger it will provide more charging current and therefor would be more effective.

  • Why does my memory kep being used up when I am not downloading anything

    my memory keeps being used up when I haven't downloaded anything to my iPad had 9gb free last night I now have 4 ?

    It is occupied by "Other"
    1. Cache for apps, browser, mail, messages, reading list
    2. Saved games
    3. Documents and data
    4. Notes
    5. Voice Memos
    You can backup and restore to reduce "other" but they will start building up over time.

  • Ipod uses power when yurned off and hold button

    i hav 1st gen ipod nano, the ipod seems to hold a charge when on, yet if i turn it off and put the hold button on it uses power while off, also when i flick the hold button off the i pod turns straight back on and starts playing. Its out of warranty and ive reset it and restored it to factory settings any idea!!!!

    and also it takes only a couple of hours for pwer to
    drain when its off
    Do you have any clock functions set (alarms, stop watch, timer) or calendar events? These can use up power... Restoring it might be a good idea after you first reset it:
    Toggle hold switch, press and hold Menu and Select (center) buttons for at least 6 seconds.

  • Satellite P855-10G runs out of battery even when turned off

    Hi everyone,
    I have bought the Toshiba Satellite P855-10G, but im terrified because he runs out of battery even when turned off..
    Anyone knows how can i solve the issue?
    Best regards,
    Igor Tarelho

    Hi
    Access the BIOS and turn OFF the options like: Waking up on LAN and Keyboard.
    In Toshiba HW Setup I recommend disabling the USB Sleep and Charge function as well
    Both enabled options might allow discharging the battery even if the unit is OFF
