IPhone :: Install IOS 5.1 Through The 4s Cause Huge Data Usage?
May 14, 2012
I just recently updated my iPhone 4s to iOS 5.1 through the notification of the phone. I didn't use the iTune to update the iOS which I was use to. And then the iPhone shutdown and process the update process. I was doing this in my home with a stable Wi-Fi access. But the day after, I was received a notice about huge data usage of 218M. The only thing I can figure out is the iOS update. Is this true? If the phone update will cause such a huge data usage I will never use this this utility as my total data is only 300M per month. It should at least give a warning before launch the process or do this under the wifi environment.

I recently got the Xperia Mini Pro and last week, I noticed my data usage (according to Data Monitor) had gone up from 23mb to 60mb while I wasn't even using the phone. It happened again this week, going from 70mbish to 100mb. I phoned my t-mobile who told me my allowance is actually 250mb (Thank God!) but they don't know the reason why my data usage is jumping up like that. So they reffered me to Sony Mobile's support team who I haven't phoned yet.since I wanted to try the forums.
I have background traffic turned off and everytime I lock my phone, Data traffic is turned off by Juice Defender...so I don't get how this is happening? Could there be an application using the internet at such huge amounts? (all I use is Whatsapp)Or is Data Monitor not accurate?

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

I use about 1.5 gbs of mobile data a month, but since updating to Lollipop, I have used 2 gb in four days (according to My Data Manager), with the majority being used by the OS system. I am on Wi-Fi most of the time or have data turned off- I only use mobile data occasionally at work. However, the data settings are saying I only used 0.38 gb for the same time period.

even every night, while it is in a good range of my my home wlan network. Did anyone has similar experience? I wonder, what can be the cause? These are MB of data and I am running out of my data plan every month. This was never the case previously when I had N8.

I checked out my data usage on the att website and it turns out surprisingly that i consistently use under 200mb a month.
1. I beejive im every work day for at least 2 hours on edge(don't tell my boss) but it suprisingly only comes out to only about 4mbs per day (if i used 3g would the data consumption be higher?)
2. I maybe use slingplayer 1 day a month on 3g (sad) about 10mbs i think
3. I grab email manually by opening up the mail app maybe twice a day max.
Do you think i should switch asap? or is it best recommended to view iphone 4 data usage first in case i upload 720p video (which i doubt they will let you do)

Since 2/23, I have had massive data usage at random times. 1GB here and there, sometimes in the middle of the night.My Data Sense shows that the "Restore data" app has used 8.17 GB in the last two days. All of my other apps are using negligible amounts of data.What is the "Restore data" app, and how do I tell it to stop using so much data?
One additional bit of info: 2/23 was also the date that the Microsoft Health app updated. I use a MS Band. It seems like there may have been some type of update pending on the band. When I called Verizon's tech support, they said that the pending update might have something to do with the massive data usage. We completed the update to the Band, and they said to give it another day to see if the data usage continues. What this "Restore data" app is, it doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the Band.

I had my original 2G iPhone for three years before updating to the iPhone 4. During that three years, I only used about 4 GB of cellular data, so I thought the whole "no more unlimited data" business was blown out of proportion.
Of course, with my old iPhone, I didn't have 3G, so I didn't stream a lot over the cellular network. I decided to try streaming music in my car for a few days on my one-hour-each-way commute to work and back.
I used it for about a week, before switching back to my iPod. I just checked my data usage, and in the three weeks or so that I've had my new iPhone, I have used 4 GB of data already!
That's right, in three weeks, I used the data that I took three years to use on my old iPhone! My data usage multiplied by 52!
That's crazy! Streaming certainly does make a huge difference.
How much data do you use? I just thought I would pose the question.

I'm trying to figure out if I really need unlimited data or if I should choose a cheaper plan. Problem is I don't know which is my true data usage. The first is from the "Settings" app and the second is from At&t's app.

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.

For those of you that have tethered your phones to the computers using mywi after jbing your iphones...If I have access to wifi at school, and would only use the tethering when not on campus, would I approach the 2gb data usage much?
People who use mywi often, do you find that you were approaching above 2gb/month quite often?I know you can't give exact usage rates since it's different for all, but still an estimate would be nice.

Did anyone else here buy the iPhone 4 on an Orange contract?I have the Your Orange app and there was an update for it this morning, and it now shows your data usage since your last bill. However, in my settings it says I have used 23.5mb + 168mb, and in the Your Orange app it says I have used 305mb! Quite a big difference

for some reason I went over my data usage limit and noticed two large data downloads/uploads (dont know which) that occurred overnight while I was not using my phone. The ATT rep said that the iphone reverts to 3g when going to sleep but this does not account for the usage. is there a setting or an app that is doing that?

I am currently with Vodafone in the uk and about 6 months ago I recieved a text message saying I was close to my data limit of 750mb and that they would provide me with an extra 250mb charged at £5 per shot. I downloaded a data usage app to monitor my usage and it was climbing at a ludicrous rate. As imaginable when I contacted Vodafone to inform them of the issue they didn't want to know and were not the slightest bit interested in the problem at all. I decided to return the phone to apple who after literally 5 minutes of using the phone said that there was defiantly and issue with the handset and that due to it still being under warrenty they would replace it free of charge.
Now this problem seems to have reoccurred where as I very nearly went over my limit last month I put this down to playing draw something through 3G and susiquently deleted the app. I decided to reset my data usage on the iPhone I have this morning already used 20mb + in just under an hour. It isn't as through it climbs when not being used it just seems to use loads or recieved data when I'm surfing the net.

When I am near home, in my own country, my wife can use Find iPhone on her iPad to check where I am (with my iPhone) when I go out for long extended bike rides and she will normally do this in case I have a mechanical fault which cannot be fixed. It also gives her a decent ETA for my return.When I am holiday overseas, I want to do the same thing - she will be in the rental on a wireless network so will have no problems with internet connections, but I am going to have to turn international roaming data to 'on', on my iPhone to allow her to track me, but I don't want to be fleeced by the carrier, so I want to minimise the data usage while I am out on the bike. When I get back I can just turn roaming data to 'off'I guess the way to do this is to; turn my email accounts off completelyturn notifications offturn iMessage offturn iCloud offtrun Twitter off Is there anything else I should be doing so that just the FindiPhone App is using data ?

I'm interested in Managing Data Usage on the iPhone 5sÂ
I have ATT 2GB plan and for reasons unknown the usage climbed up way faster than I expected.Â
Yes I am turning off cell data for most apps that request it. - I turned off all that attempt to download audio or media. those set only to wifi...Â
Yes - I am using the hot spot for my mac - but i am attempting to do the same - just look at text pages and avoid media files.Â
Q: How do I track down the cell data offenders? Is there an app that will show cell data usage details for IOS or for MAC?

just got my new iphone yesterday and i love it, but one thing has been bothering me. i got it downloaded 5-6 apps using the app store on the phone and than i got a ringtone. check my data usage using the at&t app and its at .12mb. go over to my friends, watch a 5 min Internet video on it and its still at .12mb. woke up today and it was 104.5mb out of my 200mb allowance. after wondering what was going on i switched it so that when im in my house it uses my wifi, but than i check my data usage again and its now at 113.8mb. is this right or is there something running on my phone that is just killing my data use?in short, does 5-6 downloaded apps, 30 min of internet use (facebook/espn), and a 5 min Internet video = 113.8mb?

Just checked the app free from iTunes it now shows how much data you used and out of how much your allowed.
Login to your account on the app then go to usage,data then you will see your data you used and out of how much your allowed. If your on a family plan you must login then go to usage, data, then individual then choose a number then you will see how many mb you used. This comes in handy for those new AT&T customers that won't be on the unlimited plan starting Monday.
