My husband and I both have the iPhone 3GS. My husband's phone however will count on the phones data usage 20mb over night while it is charging and on our wifi. it is counting this towards his 3g usage and not wifi. We have already had APPLE reset everything at the store. it is still doing it. so he has to turn off all cellualar data usage at night or it keeps racking up the usage even though it is on our wifi. I plug my phone in at night as well and mine is not doing this

Question: I've used my iPhone exclusively on wifi so far. Yet, I have around 200 kB of data used under my usage details. I haven't even used the phone while on 3G yet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a very limited data plan (100mb/month) and I need to be able to identify what apps or processes are consuming data in my iPhone. How can I do this?I have already reviews all my accounts and turned Push off, although that didn't significantly reduce data usage. Either way, the accounts are responsible for, AT MOST, 2 or 3mb/day considering new emails/new calendar stuff and whatever. I have a lot of Apps too, but I'm always worried to keep every "automatic sync" stuff OFF. I use an application called DataMan Pro to track usage data and keep my data consumption under control. But it does not tell me WHERE the consumption came from. Yesterday I went to check DataMan for my usage and I was surprised to find 9MB of usage and I did NOTHING yesterday, didn't use any apps like facebook, didn't check my emails, anything. Where did that come from?

I've noticed some strange behavior with my iPhone 4 where my account shows 3G usage at a time when I am certain I am on wi-fi. For example, on June 22, 2012 at 7:17AM EDT, I was at home, getting ready to go to work. I am 100% certain my phone was on wi-fi at the time. But, my AT&T usage shows over 460MB of data over 3G. I've read about turning off cellular data and location services, but that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it? Why heavy 3G data usage seen while on wi-fi, and if so, how to track down what was causing it?

This is a really silly question. It used to be easy to find your Wifi and network usage under settings, but I can not find them anymore. Usage now has been taken over by iCloud etc. and about is too top level. The usage used to be along side the up-time since last boot.

I was just wondering, when viewing the data usage on the ATT app, or their website, it the usage showing WiFi and 3G, or simply 3G? If it is showing both, is there a way to separate the two to view each individually?

I recently just purchased a blackberry curve 8520 with Fido. My phone is connected to my wifi at home, but I want to make sure that I am strictly using wifi NOT data (because I do not have a data plan). I noticed that in a public wifi network, a red asterisk appears on the WiFi symbol on the top right hand corner of the phone. Like this :( the WiFi symbol is circled to demonstrate what I mean when I say WiFi symbol and the asterisk appeared like so)However on my home network , though it says it is connected, the asterick does not appear. As you can see it says "Fido-peanut butter" ( my router name) meaning yes, I am "connected".... BUT without the red asterisk on the wifi symbol ( with my home WiFi) Does this mean I am not properly connected? I called Fido and the CSR said she thinks it has something to do with login password in the public WiFi, but she is not certain.
The problem seems to be this: When I go to "Mobile Network Options" to turn "data services" OFF( to make sure I am only using wifi and no data), the connection fails and I get this message:When I turn it ON, I am able to connect. For "Connection Preference": what setting should I set it to if I do not want to use any data BUT WIFI? Yes, the obvious answer would be to choose "WI-Fi" only, but this means I will not be able to call/text because my mobile connection will be turned off. So, how can I verify that I am really only using wifi and not data when both the data service is ON and my wifi is "connected"?This is a checklist of what I have done:
1) HOTSPOT USER - check.
2) insterted pin provided by the phone into my dlink router (via online)
3)tried the push button setup
4)rebooted my router/modem
5)there is a checkmark beside WiFi connection:
It would seem like I am connected to Wifi, but again, to reiterate I would like to ask if WiFi is the ONLY thing I am using and not Data.
I want to add my son on my AT&T plan and put a chip in th 9810 torch that I no longer use. This phone was an outright purchase with no contract. When he is home or around any wifi hotspots, let him surf and stream Pandora to his hearts content. When not in range of wifi I want to prohibit all data access other than the unlimited text and phone. Is this possible? I've seen posts about setting the browser options to use wifi but the talk has been when wifi is no longer available it switches to the BB data. This is what I'm trying to prevent.

I dont know what is happening in the software but it is annoying to see that wifi is turned on at all the time.
I'm wondering if using Wifi (while cell data turned on) uses more than cell data (with wifi off) alone.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFormer OG user. Ran WIFI at home 24x7. Typically, wifi averaged about 2-3% of battery drain.
Got a Bionic this week, running Airplane mode at home , wifi on, disabled sleep policy. Look at these stats:
Wifi traffic monitor app that will show you how much data you have used at any certain time, per period (day/month/etc) but also grouped by network ssid? Like for example I'm running a personal hotspot (portable 3g router - say ssid TEST) that has a certain ammount of data available per month, and I want to see on my phone for example, how much data I have used on that particular network (ssid TEST).
I found some apps that show monthly and daily wifi usage, but it's combined for all wifi networks you connect to. I am looking for an app that shows usage per wifi network.
I've been having problems with my battery monitor constantly showing wifi usage while it's never even used on my phone. There will then be sporadic times where it will show that wifi is "off" and then kick back in.

View 24 Replies View RelatedMy iphone 4 battery seems to be draining way too quickly. I just charged it up to 100%. Disconnected it and made sure that the following things were turned off: wifi, location services, notifications, mail. I double clicked the home button and closed all applications.
I am using 1% battery per hour. Usage reads 2 hours 5 minutes. Stand By reads 2 hours 5 minutes. Does this make sense? How can usage and stand by be the same when I have done nothing except hit the home button twice and looked at the battery strength?
my usage has been the same as my standby. which I assume means that ever since my iPhone has begun it's new "cycle" since the full charge. it's been "working". Normally I'd go through a charge cycle as almost 2 days of standby and 8-ish hours of usage; however last night my battery drained nearly 15%, and I noticed my usage increased to 17 hours. indicating that it had been active overnight. That I guess has continued today, since my usage and standby are both near 3 hours. what is going on all of a sudden? What apps may be running in the background and why?

My 4s is having serious battery issues. I do not have the option of taking it to an apple store. Nearest is 4 hours away. Done a hard reset. Did a restore as new. The phone loses 5-10% per hour in standby. The phone dies in 6-8 hours being mostly in standby. Standby and usage times are the same. I have everything on the phone turned off, no apps installed, I haven't activated my mail client, etc. Nothing is on the phone since restoring it as new. With wifi off, cellular data/roaming off, and location services off I still lose the same amount. Version 5.1.1(9B206) The phone used to work fine. I would have to charge it every other day.

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1.1, Battery usage issues.
My Iphone 4s is 8 months old and has always worked flawlessly. Since two weeks, however, I am experiencing a serious drop in battery life. I found out that the reason seems to be that the Iphone is working while in standby: my usage and standby stats are very close: for example, I wake up having charged the Iphone to 100% just before getting to bed, to find the usage stats say "7 hours of standby and 6 hours and 30 minutes of usage, and the battery percentage at 65%!! While I would literally not have touched the Iphone at all! Before the battery percentage would after 7 hours of not touching it be at 94 or 96%. In fact, the Iphone now lasts less than a day, I have to recharge every 18 or so hours on the basis of a usage of maybe 2 hours!
I have
- rebooted
- reset all settings
- deleted some, but not all, recently installed apps
- deleted e-mail accounts and re-installed them
- turned off 3g and wifi and notifications and location services and 'find my iphone' and, well, many other things.
- thought hard about what I did just before this change in battery life occurred which might have caused it, but can't think of anything significant. None of these bring back my iphone to anything close to its previous battery usage.
