Hello All Who Read This!
I just bought an iPhone 5 on the 21st of March. I ate through 850 MB's in 12 days. I read up on the issue of data consumption looking for tips to conserve data. I did not know there was a problem.
This morning I found out that I was leaking data very little, but daily it accumulates. I am in Barcelona, Spain. I do not have a contract, I am on a prepaid Yoigo carrier.
I happened upon an article/blog by Robert Parks at snnyc.com "problems persist in ios 6.1.2.".
Although his situation did not relate to me, I tried a few tests on my own to see if I could stop the data leak without turning off my celular data and possibly push notifications, I think I found a solution that might help someone:
In ios 6.1.3 goto Settings/Mail, Contacts,Calenders and scroll down to Calendars and turn off " New Invitation Alerts" and also turn off "Shared Calendar Alerts".
My Cellular Network Data seems to be behaving. I only see a change in MB used when I open an ap that uses data.
All The Best

  • HT201415 My iPhone5 uses LTE (AT&T) even when connected to wifi

    My iPhone5 uses cellular data when LTE is on, even if it's connected to wifi. If I turn off LTE, then it will connect to the wifi network. This has caused me to go over my data plan, since I don't have unlimited data, thinking I was on wifi, when in reality i was using my celular data plan. I have called AT&T and they claim they have not heard about this before, and to call Apple. I called Apple and they also tell me that they have no record of such issue. I have 2 iphone5 on my AT&T account and they both exhibit the same issues. Has anyone found a solution for this? It's very annoying to have to turn LTE off when I get home and on my home wifi.

    These are the speeds I'm getting: 27.52Mbps on LTE, and 11.32Mbps on wifi, so cellular data IS faster then wifi. I like the faster speeds, but I don't have unlimited, so if I stream videos on Netflix, the iphone will use LTE. If Apple or AT&T would have told us this before, we would have saved hundreds of dollars on overages, but then again, we're talking about AT&t and Apple!

  • How do i unlock my Sprint iphone5 with IOS 7.4 0 to use any network here in the U S?

    How can i unlock my Sprint iphone5 with IOS 7.4.0 to be compartable with other service providers here in the U S?

    You can't. Sprint phones can be unlocked ONLY for use on non US carriers. They can not be used on any US carrier other than Sprint. If you want to use a different carrier in the US, sell the phone and buy one you can use.

    If you purchased Lion for your iMac, just log into the Mac App Store from your MacBook using the Apple ID under which you purchased Lion and go to the Purchases page. You will be able to download and install Lion there. 
    searching the internet i found a link to upgrtade to 10.7
    The only place you get get Lion is from the Mac App Store. If you found some other site, that was an illegal copy and almost certainly tied to someone else's Apple ID and hence unusable by you. If the link was just to the Mac App Store, see above.
    As to the problem with synchronization to iCloud, that's not a 10.6 question, so I'd suggest you take up that specific issue in either the Lion or iCloud forums, providing full details, and someone there can probably help you sort things out.
    Regards.

  • Hi NO SIM message coming frequently in iphone5 with ios 8.1.1

    Hi NO SIM message coming frequently in iphone5 with ios 8.1.1.I have reset the network setting,SIM remove & Insert again then carrier appear but after sometime (may be 1 hr,3 hrs),same problem comes again.

    Hello brajeshchandra79,
    Good job on troubleshooting your issue with No SIM on your iPhone. The last few steps would be to restore your iPhone. If that does not help, then the next step would be to contact Apple for additional support. 
    If you see 'No SIM' alert on iPhone

    Take care,

  • After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

    After I synced my iphone (4S with ios 8.1.2) using itunes with MS outlook on my new PC , suddenly all my contacts without telephone number and what I have the name of the contact only ?

    I couldn't find the edit button on my original post so I am posting an update here.
    I have gone through more apps and have had good luck on all but one more.  And it's not that the app doesn't work, I am talking about the Yahoo Weather app, It works fine, but when you swipe between cities the screen lags a bit and it sometimes doesn't move between pages the way it should.  On iOS 7.1.2 it was smooth as butter but on iOS 8.0, not so much.  I will post a note in the app store to let them know.  I really like the Yahoo app better than the new stock app.
    I have been going through my games and they all work fine. Angry Birds (Original and Stella), Canabalt, Minecraft, Bejeweled 2, Silly Walks, PopWords, Doodle Jump, Deep Green all seem to work just fine. 
    Starbucks app works as it should. 
    I will stop back again next week after I have had the weekend to play with it in detail and post my thoughts again.

  • TS1559 Since upgrading my iPhone5 to the newest iOS (6.1.2) I can longer connect to WiFi. It sees the wireless network but will not connect.. Other devices in my home that weren't upgraded can connect just fine.

    Since upgrading my iPhone5 to the newest iOS (6.1.2) I can longer connect to WiFi. It sees the wireless network but will not connect.. Other devices in my home that weren't upgraded can connect just fine.

    I had the same problem.  I did the reset networks on my iPhone &amp; it did not work.  My husband read somewhere that changing the channel on the router to manual &amp; selecting the highest available channel number might help.  I did that &amp; it solved the problem.  I have not had the problem since.

  • Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

    I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
    The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
    The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
    I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
    There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
    I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
    I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
    Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
    After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
    Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
    Hope this solution will help you too,
    Enjoy!

  • Bug: iOS 5 using data in email app when connected to wifi. Has anyone else had this problem?

    Since I have received my new iPhone 4s I have constantly been going over my data every month. I only get 200mb. Normally I only used 20-50 tops if I used heavily with out wifi. After trying different application, and resetting the usage meter under settings. I noticed that when connected to wifi it uses data when checking for email, pushing and sending and recieving email. I've reset restored etc. nothing fixes it.

    WiFi *should* take precedence in my opinion, however it does not.  This was just confirmed to me by a supervisor at the VWZ call center.  i received a notice that i was going to be charged an overage fee due to going over the data plan i have on the iPad2.  However, this particular iPad has not been out of my house, nor away from my WiFi network all month.  When i called verizon, they confirmed that even though the ipad is connected to my wifi network, as long as 'Cellular Data' toggle is set to on, it will use that network first.
    No need for this to be the case, other than for Verizon to be able to make incremental revenue on their data plan!

    Lots of WIFI needs a username and password to get access. I guess you're lucky and yours is set up unsecured.
    Normal secured WiFi requires only a password to get access. The password is used to encrypt traffic between your device and the WiFi access point. If whatever you are using requires a username as well then it is not simply normal secured WiFi. It might be a subscription WiFi service like GOGO, ATT, etc., or a service with authentication, i.e., college campus, etc. To help you out we need to know what you are using and what connection dialog you are being presented with. You don't have exactly the same problem as the original poster. He is having a problem entering a password into the password dialog that iOS presents when one tries to connect to a normal secured WiFi network. Could you clarify exactly which WiFi service you are using.

  • HT1414 I attempted to update my iphone 3 through I tunes - I think I did a back up on my pc - I am now unable to use the phone at all - it cannot be turned off and seems to be syncing all the time, even when it is not connected to itunes.

    I attempted to update my iphone 3 using itunes.  I'm not certain but I believe I did a backup on my pc first.  I am now unable to use the phone at all - the slide bar won't move and I have a camera icon next to the slide bar which is not responsive.  I have tried to sync and even left the phone connected to the pc overnight. The phone is going flat within a couple of hours and won't stop beeping every few seconds and seems to be syncing all the time, even when disconnected from pc.  I am fearful that I have lost all my contacts - nothing is working - can anyone help - please?

    Try resetting it if you can: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), then release.  If you can't, try to connect it to iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your sync settings and click Restore to restore it.  If that doesn't work you'll have to force it into recovery mode to restore it as outlined here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808.
    You can check in iTune to see if you have a backup.  They are listed in iTunes>Preferences>Devices.  However, the backup may not bring your contacts back as contacts are only backed up as necessary to preserve the recent call and call favorites lists.
