Why the large data usage

my son's iphone usage says his phone used 10mb today alone. He's connected to our home wireless network when at home and doesn't surf or use his phone while away from home. What could be causing the large cellular data usage numbers?

Make sure it's backdated. If you don't do that then it won't go into effect until next billing cycle. Most common mistake people do.
Things to consider:
Updates set on automatic on laptops and computer will randomly use your data. The biggest day is usually the first Thursday(IIRC) of every month on window devices(or whatever day after that you decide to turn them on). Also apps will auto update themselves(chrome for example. Plugins as well). To help reduce data usage it's best to make sure to turn auto updates off and manually check them.

  • IPhone Newbie beating a dead horse - Why are large data packets sent

    Has anyone got an actual answer or solution to the large data packets being transmitted from the iphones?

    What cell service do others in your area use?
    From ATT terms of service:
    3.2 Where and How Does AT&T Service Work?
    AT&T does not guarantee availability of wireless network. Services may be subject to certain Device and compatibility/limitations including memory, storage, network availability, coverage, accessibility and data conversion limitations. Services (including without limitation, eligibility requirements, plans, pricing, features and/or service areas) are subject to change without notice.
    When outside AT&T's coverage area, access will be limited to information and applications previously downloaded to or resident on your device. Coverage areas vary between AT&T network technologies. See coverage map(s), available at store or from your sales representative, for details or the coverage map at www.att.com/coverageviewer.

  • Why is my data usage increasing multiple times a day when I'm on wi-fi?

    For both myself on the Samsung Galaxy S4 and my girlfriend on an iPhone 5c, both of which we got just a week ago, we see our data usage total increasing several times a day, typically in very small amounts, occasionally larger.  Her increases are about 10x larger than mine overall.  All of this happens when we're each on wi-fi so I wouldn't expect to see these increases then.  Any idea why this is happening and what I can do to prevent it?  I'm guessing it may be some sort of auto update processing happening in the background, but I don't know that for sure and don't know what else could be causing this.

    After talking to 4 different Verizon reps today, nobody could pinpoint the
    cause of this.  I was mostly just told not to worry about it.  My wifi has
    seemingly been very solid both here and at work; I don't notice dropouts
    when I'm doing other things on it.  But I did disable mobile data on the S4
    and observed that the data usage did not increase any further after I did
    that.  So I guess I'll either use that as my primary mode of operation, and
    just manually reenable it when I know I'll be away from a wifi signal, or
    turn mobile data back on and live with the ongoing hits until it becomes a
    storage issue.  At the rate we're using data thus far, that shouldn't
    happen.

  • Why did my data usage skyrocket with Ellipsis Jetpack?

    My old wifi went down and the Verizon office sold me an Ellipsis Jetpack. My data usage immediately started going up although my Internet habits remained the same. I turn the Jetpack off when I'm not logged in and I changed the setting to only allow one user. I changed Facebook to not automatically start videos and I hit pause on every video that comes up on news feeds. I feel like I'm getting ripped off. I saw some discussion here earlier (can't find it now) that others are having the same problems but saw no answer from Verizon. Also, there are no diagnostics available online to see what is causing my usage to be so high and someone suggested that Verizon is blocking access to the information. Would I be better off finding a different wireless internet provider?

    Same thing happened to me.  Can't understand why.  We'll see if they charge overages.

  • I have 2 significantly large data usages on my IPhone bill.

    I received a text notice from ATT that I was over my monthly data allowance. My normal individual data usages range from 12kb to 25kb. Once in a while 600kb or so.  The 2 that put me over were 131775kb and 88906kb. I have contacted ATT and they told me they just receive date, time and duration from Apple.  I called Apple and they said there's no way to find out what caused these large usages. I need to find out what is causing these.  I have had the phone for over a year and never had this problem until now.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. FYI I do not use facebook or mail on my iphone.  They are both turned off. 

    AT&T does NOT receive any info from Apple regarding their own network utilization. If that's what you were told, whoever said that is totally full of ****.
    The ONLY way you'll find out when these data surges occured is from AT&T.  There's no record of what the data was for, so you will have to correlate what you/the phone were doing at those times.

  • **Why soooo much data usage??**

    Hi everyone...
    I am curious to know (when you go into your settings and then "cellular") why is there a need for data usage for MY MUSIC?? CONTACTS?? PHOTOS?? CALENDAR?? I mean especially music - that is DOWNLOADED to my phone so why the need for data?? Same for the others.
    And are they USING DATA just by being there?? Or only when I like go into my cameral roll, or open my contacts??
    I've always been very confused about how cellular data works. And I am currently staying where there is NO Wi Fi - NONE whatsoever. They use ethernet for the computer. Therefore, when using my phone (here - no Wi Fi) my data has been going QUICK! So I am now all the more curious as to how it all works and if there is anything I can do.
    Thanks so much.

    Contacts, as an example, would use data when the contacts are synced with iCloud. Note that you can turn off cellular data usage for individual items such as Contacts, Calendar, etc on that same page (Settings > Cellular > Use Cellluar Data For) just by tapping the switch to the right of each so that it goes from green to white.

  • Large data usage transfer every 6 hours while on a WiFi network, who is doing this transfer? Is Verizon polling my phone causing this usage?

    I have three iPhone 5s. All are using my WiFi while at home. One iPhone is sending data over Verizon's network, not WiFi, every 6 hours or so. The time of this data transfer changes every few days. I see data usage number on my Verizon account ranging from a few kilobytes to almost a gigabyte. Is this due to Verizon polling the iPhone for data usage and billing purposes on a regular basis? And what do these billing numbers mean? Where does Verizon get these numbers? Any running apps while on my WiFi should use the WiFi, not Verizon, correct?

    I'm having the same issue and this month these data pulls equated to 1891.51 MB!!!
    Model: iPhone 5S 64GB.  Today I received a notification from Verizon that I had exceeded my data plan.  I just went through my entire usage detail report on my phone and separated-out everything that appears to be part of a 6-hour pattern.  When I'm at home and most of the time while I'm at work, I am connected to wifi.  These data pulls often happen in the middle of the night, when I know for a fact that my phone is charging and connected to wifi at home.  Below are the results of the pattern analysis.  Keep in mind that I removed all lines that, as far as I could tell, were not part of a 6-hour pattern.
    THE PROOF: You sent me three alerts immediately after pulling data from my phone.
    The first alert said that I had used 75% of my data plan on 8/11/2014 at 9:45pm while I was at home on wifi.  There was a data pull logged at 9:45pm which was part of the 6-hour pattern above.
    The second alert stated that I had used 90% of my data at 10:46pm on 8/14/2014; the data log shows a pull just before the alert at 10:45pm.
    The third alert telling me I had used all of my data came today while my phone was sitting next to me, connected to wifi at the office.  The alert arrived at 12:48pm, the log shows a data pull at 12:48pm.

  • Why the delivery date in the order not changing with P.O???

    Hi All,
    I am encountered with an issue that in a P.O the delivery dates are kept as customer requested delvery date and these cahnges are not updating in the order.
    According to standard SAP the change in delivery dates in a P.O should get updated in sales order.But its not happening if we keep this date as customer requested delivery date,Why is it so?
    I would explain with an example so that it would be clear:
    An order is created say 03/31/2011 and the requested delivery date is 05/02/2011.
    Confirm delivery date is 05/10/2011  (because in purchase info record it is 40 days)
    Now when P.O is created this confirm delivery dates will come.If we change these dates to any other dates it would replicate in the order.But if we keep these dates as customer requested delivery date, it is not changing in the order.
    Please any one help me out....
    Regards & thanks.

    Dear,
    Please check the timing in work scheduling view. other wise schedule the routing and maintain time there and check your result.
    In material Master MRP2 screen you will get Scheduling Screen where you will get
    In-house production
    GR processing time
    Plnd delivery time
    These are lot size independent but value in work scheduling view are lot size dependent.
    Go to VOV8 and check the Lead time part. If u will maintain lead time of 2 days, the req deliverty date will be 2 days frm order creation date.
    You can configure this in the configuration of the Sales document type in VOV8. Here we can specify the value and as per that configuration the date will be defaulted.

  • Why the cached data lost from Coherence?

    Yesterday,I sarted a storage-enabledcache server by running cache-server.cmd and started a storage-disabled cache console by running coherence.cmd.
    Then I inputed the following commands to input some data into the Coherence caches:
    cache(cb)
    put a a
    put b b
    put c c
    put d d
    put e e
    Map (cb): list
    c = c
    e = e
    a = a
    d = d
    b = bBut today, when I issue the list command from the Coherence command line, the output become "null".
    Why the data lost?

    By running cache-server.cmd Coherence will be using the configuration file from the coherence.jar which will default to a cache with expiry of one hour. So if you had checked you cache after an hour or so you would have seen it was empty.
    If you look at the coherence-cache-config.xml file inside the coherence jar you will see this mapping (which will apply to the cache you created with the name "cb"
        <cache-mapping>
          <cache-name>*</cache-name>
          <scheme-name>example-distributed</scheme-name>
        </cache-mapping>This maps to a scheme called example-distributed that looks like this:
        <distributed-scheme>
          <scheme-name>example-distributed</scheme-name>
          <service-name>DistributedCache</service-name>
          <!-- To use POF serialization for this partitioned service,
               uncomment the following section -->
          <!--
          <serializer>

            </local-scheme>
          </backing-map-scheme>
          <autostart>true</autostart>
        </distributed-scheme>which uses the example-binary-backing-map scheme
        <local-scheme>
          <scheme-name>example-binary-backing-map</scheme-name>

          <flush-delay>1m</flush-delay>
          <cachestore-scheme></cachestore-scheme>
        </local-scheme>which you can see has expiry set to 1 hour.
    I once had to help out a team who managed to get a node using this configuration on their production cluster and lost random data every hour!

  • Why the committed Date of STO becomes 12/31/9999

    Hi Please help me, just new in STO.
    We have the problem in STO where if checking md04, available stocks still is on 500K++
    though there are entries such as Open SO qty and some delivered items already.
    But what happen is the STO was created sept 28 but we put delivery date of it as dept 17 earlier
    than those dates in delivery.
    still if checking the stocks, deliver items doesnt short the stocks buy why
    sto committed date becomes infinity date.
    does the open so quantity consumes the stocks already?
    is there a way we can see where the priority of stocks allocation is set in the configuration?
    thank you

    Hello,
    If not all quantity can be confirmed for the delivery date,
    and the ATP-chek runs without Replenishment lead time, the system set
    the committed date to 12/31/9999. This is the normal system behavior
    and not an bug.
    During an STO-process the system check the availability in the supplying
    plant(APO) for the date when the delivery has to be created (ekpv-ledat)
    This date can be determined with shipping data determination or
    without, accordingly your settings in customizing OMGN. Without the
    system takes only the planed delivery time into account. This time
    can be different in PREQ and Material master so it can be different
    in the time when the system checks the availability if you create the PO
    with reference to an Preq or without.
    In addition, the committed date in the PO is only for informational
    purposes, it is not interpreted by the ATP check since the ATP situation
    might have changed immediately after the committed
    date was calculated.

  • Why is my data usage so high?

    Using Verizon's data calculator, 5G should me more than sufficient for the limited PC usage.  In one week, the data usage information indicates we have used over half in one week.  There are several entries in the breakdown for small amounts during the midnight hours, when computers are not in use and shut down. 
    I am very disappointed with the information provided before this plan was purchased, based on what we expected for our data needs.  By increasing the data amount our bill will increase 30.00  There are many sources that indicate 2G should be ample for each of us in the household (2).  So, I am not sure the calculations are correct that are being tracked with the Jetpack system.  Here is the data calculator, I entered more than twice the expected usage for the two laptops combined.  We download no music, videos, movies.  Simply check email and browse the web.  How do you explain this?

    5/21/2014 Data Calculator - Verizon Wireless

    The VZW Data Calculator is a tool designed to help estimate and visualize data usage.  Most folks have no idea what data is or how it is consumed on their devices.  The data calculator tool is not accurate on any front other than to give you a general idea how much data a particular function consumes under normal circumstances.
    VZW provides its users with a limited data usage report that does not break down individual application or device usage into meaningful results.  What you get instead is a power bill like summary of your usage in terms of how much was used at certain times of the day.  After all VZW is not in the computer support business, they provide you with the pipe and users determine how best to consume the data.  A leaky hose or application is not the responsibility of VZW to discover and correct.
    When it comes to the actual usage of your VZW device there isn't a whole lot out there that can show you how you are consuming your data plan.  Some monitor applications and devices can be setup ahead of time, but all they are good for is reviewing the data that flows through them.  Special care must be taken when designing and setting up monitors to make sure you capture everything.  Monitors are generally not user friendly to setup or understand and often require detailed readings of numerous logs to determine where problems are, if the monitor can even capture them at all.
    The current best practices for data usage are as follows:
    1. Power down your VZW device when it is not being used
    2. Secure your VZW device with a custom SSID, WiFi and Admin password
    - This should be in compliance with security best practices for strong passwords
    - A good site to reference is https://howsecureismypassword.net/
    3. Take care to disable and shutdown any automatic updates on your devices
    4. Be cautious to view and download audio/video content on low resolution
    In most cases high data usage is not an intentional doing on the users behalf.  It is the background applications and services installed on the connected devices that run rampant and chew up your data plan without your knowledge or consent.

  • What is up with the excessive data usage with 5s

    I just updated from a 4 to a 5s. My data usage has always been under 500MB. The data usage has exploded to almost 2G in the last two days since the upgrade. What the heck is going on with that????!!!!

    Faster bandwidth equals higher quality graphics and video resolutions.
    Check your cellular data settings and see which applications are using the most data.

  • Why the contract data is not modifiable when I create a order

    I have already assigned the Contract Profile to a sale order type in the Sale order type definition, and the contract profile has been set correct.
    When I create a order by this order type (I’ve tried both copy and create a new order type), I can’t modify the contract data from Goto>Header>Contract data,
    what is the reason, how can I reset it, appreciate for your help, Thank you!

    hi,
    contract is an agreemet made following which we create a sales order called a release order. so, we only refer that and release whats being agreed as part of contract.
    Let us look at this situation from a business point of view. so once you create a contract profile and assign to sales order, we cant modify it at the sales order level.
    Hope it helps. Pl reward if useful.
