Exactly WHEN is data being used?

I've had my Ultra for just a week and I've already built up 245MG in data and I don't know how I did it. Most everything I do is done at my home with wireless turned on. I have two questions:
How do I know WHEN an app is turned off and not eating data?
Most of the data eaten was downloading apps from the App Store. Should this download count against my time IF I'm using my wireless connection?
Thank you.

To disable apps go to Settings>Apps>All and find the ones you want to disable.  If the Disable button is greyed out or not present you need to uninstall the Updates for the app and then disable it.
Post a list here of which ones you want to disable and we can tell you if you need them or not.
You will want to disable apps like these (if you do NOT use them)
Amazon Kindle
Amazon MP3
Backup Assistant (any version)
V Cast Apps
Facebook (unless you use it)
Google Play Books
Google Play Movies
Google Play Music
Google +
MOG Music
My Verizon Mobile
Netflix
NFL Mobile
QuickOffice
Slacker Radio
Slingbox
Smart Actions (this app does nothing to help you save battery and actually uses more battery as it is another app to automate doing things on the phone so while you are not doing the thing ont he phone, th eapp is so battery is always running harder then it should)
Swype
Verizon Video
VZ Navigator

  • What is F.13? When it is being used?

    Hi All,
    What is Automatic Clearing using F.13? When is this being used? Can anybody give an example for the same?
    Thanks in advance.
    regards
    srikanth.

    F.13 is to clear accounts maintained on open item basis. With this transaction items matching the criteria set in configuration, would be cleared against each other.
    For eg item in GRIR account, one at the time of GRN and the other offsetting item at invoice verifiction, would be set off against each other thru F.13. Thus it would clear all matching entries and leave out the open items in that account
    Config: SPRO - FA'g - GL a/c'g - Busi trns - Open item clg - Prepare auto clearing
    Thanks and Regards

  • My IPod Clasic will sometimes display the error "lost connection" when it's being used, but not when connected to my computer.  Any ideas?

    This does not happen when connected to a docking device or computer, only when it is being used with headphones.  If I reboot, it's fine, but it does happen again.

    Have  discovered that I had not in fact updated the ios!!
    Went through the process last night and my ipod now works fine on my docking station.
    Thank you very much for your advice.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Another victim of huge amounts of data being used, is downgrading a solution?

    I too am one of the latest victims of skyrocketing data usage on my 2 week old iPhone 4. I randomly got a text from AT&T this morning stating that I had used 65% of my 200MB data plan in just 10 DAYS. I am on wifi for 80% of the day and at work I only check FB, twitter, and the occasional email that comes through on 3G but otherwise it's all wifi. I've read wifi isn't running when it's asleep so maybe that's the problem. I deleted my iCloud account and made my phone ancient by only getting calls. Many of you say this started with iOS5 so I was thinking that downgrading may not even be an option but a necessity. AT&T can't help at all since the data used is "consistent" yet I had 3 Blackberries and my brother's Blackberry Curve ever go/went near 100MB, and this is from the latest Blackberry phones. I still have time to return the phone and get a new one but I'm hooked on it and don't want to lose it, it's just frustrating to go through this. Has anyone successfully downgraded the OS and noticed anything?

    How many email accounts are you accessing with the iPhone's Mail app?
    Any accounts that support push access for received messages?
    If not, is Fetch set to automatically check the account or accounts for new messages?
    If the answer is yes to either question and your iPhone is not connected to a power source the entire time it is in range of an available wi-fi network the iPhone has access to or is not being actively used the entire time it is connected to an available wi-fi network, connection with the wi-fi network will be dropped. If Cellular Data is enabled, your iPhone will use the cellular data or internet network to download emails in that situation. If you have Notifcations enabled for any apps, notifications received will be downloaded via the carrier's cellular data or internet network. If your employer email account is an Exchange account, push access is supported with an Exchange account for recevied messages and for contacts and calendar events. You can turn Push access off for email but if Fetch is set to automatic, the account will be checked for new messages and new messages will be downloaded when the iPhone is not actively being used. which will be over the cellular network unless the iPhone remains connected to a power source the entire time it is connected to an available wi-fi network.
    If your employer email account is an Exchange account, that is likely the culprit. Turn Push access off for received messages for starters and use Fetch set to automatic or manually.

  • Date being used up quickly?

    I have 300mb data plan from at&t, and it is being used up quickly? I don't use it much.

    You may want to do a bit of detective work and determine what it is that is using the data. That may help you determine the next step.
    If you open the Settings app and tap Cellular, the section titled "Use Cellular Data For" will show below the app names the amount of data each app has used since the statistics were last reset. The last item in the list is "System Services" and if you tap that it will give the details of System Service usage. If it makes it easier to track, you can reset the statistics at any time at the very bottom of the Settings > Cellular screen.

  • If I erase my hard drive using disc utility, can I safely donate my computer without my data being used?

    I would like to donate my computer without my data being stolen or compromised!  Is it safe to wipe the hard drive with disk utility?

    Yes, but do not forget to zero all data (even better, several times). See the article below.

  • Air 2 data being used when in Air Plane Mode

    I have been going through a tremendous amount of data all of a sudden.   Yesterday I turned air plane mode on and just used WiFi and yet my data amount keeps increasing.   WHY?   It was very costly last month and will be again this coming month.   When I have it in Air Plane Mode I should not be using any data.
    Both the data usage on my iPad and on my account at Verizon keeps increasing even in Air Plane Mode.

    Did you look in settings > cellular to see which app is using the data?
    Double click on home button.  Quit all apps you do not need.

  • HT4528 Excess amounts of data being used.

    Why is my iPhone 4 on Verizon suddenly using ridiclous amounts of data (16GB to be exact in 12 hours) when I am on wifi? Please help.

    My mom has been having the same problem with her AT&T iPhone 4S.  AT&T can't help.  We are going to the Apple Store this afternoon to see what they say.  I think it's a weird phone issue or a sim card issue.  But, that's just my gut feeling.    Good luck getting yours resolved.

  • Is data being used if your phone is in sleep mode

    So a few years ago my dad had told me that my phone is always connecting to cellular towers and that made me think does my phone use data even if my phone is in sleep mode or if I'm doing something on my phone that doesn't require data, is a small amount of data still being used

    Yes, it will periodically do things like check for email, or perform tasks that you have authorized applications to perform in the background. Now, if you are in a location where you have a reliable wifi connection, it will typically perform these tasks over that, rather than your cellular connection.
    You can bet that there is usually a little bit of cellular data usage going on during sleep, even if there's wifi, but we're probably talking about kilobytes.
    That being said, you can track how much data apps are using by going to
    Settings>Cellular
    now, this will give you values since the beginning of time on your phone, so you can't really interpret this very well, you are best to reset those values and track it for a known period of time.

  • OFM 11.1.1.4 trying to write into jacob.dll, d2kwut60.dll and JNIsharedstubs.dll when these are being used by 10gAS

    Hi All,
    We are working on a 10g Application Server to Oracle Fusion Middleware upgrade project. We currently have more than one application in the 10gAS and the upgrade to OFM is being done one at a time. So, until all the applications gets upgraded to OFM, we will have few applications running on 10gAS and some on OFM. We access these applications through Citrix. The Citrix server has JRE 1.6.0_29 which is used by our 10gAS applications. This is the same JRE version that our future OFM apps will also be using. When we tried to test our OFM upgraded app in our development environment, we found that fusion is trying to update the above mentioned dll files. That said, I have two questions:
    1. What is that Fusion is trying to wirte into these DLL files? Any idea?
    2. Will Fusion changing these files have any impact on the applications that is running on 10GAS?
    I would appreicate your response.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Prathap

    These files are part of WEBUTIL and are downloaded to a client-location as configured in the webutil.cfg -file. If you use WEBUTIL in your 10G IAS, these files are also downloaded there. I guess that for 10G and 11G the dll's are different, but i can't tell you what happens when you have a 1=G and a 11G application running on one client at the same time. I'd suggest you try out a form which uses functionality where one of the dll's is used.

  • Cellular data being used while connected to WIFI and not in standby

    I am connected to my home WIFI on my iphone 4, but while my router is not connected to internet (so I should not have internet on my iphone), I noticed I am still receiving push notifications,
    I finally read here that while on standby, wifi is turned off and 3G is used, ok.
    now here is the problem, looking at the General>Usage>Cellular Usage, even if I am not on standby and I am using the phone, I have data usage (sent and recieved), I reopen the Celluar Usage and see the numbers are constantly increasing, and more strange is some (not all) of the push notification do come through (eg in my case for an app called FavFriends),
    another friend of mine has a simillar problem on iphone 4s.
    what is this celluar usage in the background?????

    from what I knew so far, iphone should not use the 3G if wifi is connected, eventhough there is no internet on that wifi,
    so in my case, if iphone is actually detecting no internet and switching to 3G, I should have internet on all apps (safari, etc..) which i dont, just data usage increasing with no internet in any apps (that is a 3G usage which is limited more than even when on standby),
    and if it is not supposed to switch, it brings another question, that if 3G is used when wifi connected (with no internet), are there any background 3G usage (push notifications, etc), while wifi has internet and it is supposed to utilize the wifi internet?
    so basically, I was under the assumption that 3G would not be used unless wifi is disconnected, regardless of internet access, and I dont find anything that says otherwise.
