[G1 General] tiberiumx:
I just got a text message from T-mobile: "Free T-Mobile Msg: Your data usage in this billing cycle has exceeded 10 GB;Data throughput for the remainder of the cycle may be reduced to 50 kbps or less"

I heavily use the internet capabilities on this phone, but I've never exceeded 1.5 GB in the months were I've looked at my usage, so I guessed that something was going on that I didn't know about.

The first thing I did was check data usage on T-Mobile's website. Stretching as far back as the usage history goes (7/28), I'm seeing fairly large chunks of data usage, even in the middle of the night when I'm certainly not using the phone. ex:

07/28/09	05:21 AM	8.6367

07/28/09	05:16 AM	29.3007

07/28/09	05:12 AM	9.7666

07/28/09	03:12 AM	8.6728

07/28/09	03:01 AM	39.0654

07/28/09	01:01 AM	8.6533

07/28/09	12:53 AM	39.0654

Something is either malicious or has a serious bug.

I'm not quite sure how to debug this. I've switched it over to my wifi network. I think I can install tcpdump on my router and at least see what the phone is sending and where.

Has anyone had a similar problem? Check your data usage on T-mobile's website. I don't know how long this has been going on before it managed to trip their 10 GB threshold.

Here is a list of the installed programs on my system. If anyone can check their usage and tell me that they have x program and definitely aren't having any problems, that would be helpful.

JF ADP 1.5 ROM as the base

I would also guess that with this being the first month to trip 10 GB that it is something that got installed last month (and possibly updated at some point), so I'm a little more suspicious of those. Here are the programs with modify dates from July and August:
