it'd have to be a LOT. I have work emails and do constant FB/Twitter photo uploads and the like and the max I've used is like 350 meg. Even with the occasional *cough*tethering*cough* on my current WinMo phone, I've never gotten anywhere near 2 gig.
[Captivate General] caelestis2:
How do you check your data usage with this phone?
[Captivate General] s.m.knipe:
There is an app in the market called "my wireless " by AT&T, it shows you everything about your account and it is free, otherwise there is the website...
[Captivate General] caelestis2:
Thanks, I plan to stick with the minimum plan since I have university wifi everywhere.
[Captivate General] cropythy:
Most I have ever used in a month is 1GB but that is also pretty much the amount I use per month, even with wifi in most places I go.
[Captivate General] caelestis2:
That's because you know you have 2GB. I'm not going to stream HQ videos off of youtube off-campus and I'm not going to go to photography sites and download HQ images. I'm going to web browse (with opera mini), use google maps, and various social apps on 3G. 90% of the time I will be at university.
[Captivate General] s.m.knipe:
Take you charger with you for the wifi though, like you I am usually at home or school with wifi, but it drains the battery a lot quicker than normal over the air data...

I typically get about 3-5 hours with only wifi but nearly constant use on my N1, it just depends on how close you are to the router and if you have the screen on constantly...

I know there has been a lot posted on this, but every phone/device I have had and/or used wifi has been a battery drain.
[Captivate General] kotoko:
You use less battery when you use wifi..just be sure to turn the 3g off when you do. Also, the most I used was 800meg per month.
[Captivate General] dsjr2006:
You can also *DATA# like any other AT&T phone and you'll get a text right back with your usage.
[Captivate General] ltxfreak4:
Also there is a program on the market called 3g watchdog that I used to track my usage, I liked it, but after I realized I only use 200mb in about a month I uninstalled it lol but I'm also still on the unlimted 5gig
[Captivate General] dsjr2006:
The unlimited plans are unlimited. There is no 5 GB cap as is commonly rumored, unless you're on someone other than AT&T, Sprint or Verizon.
[Captivate General] djsmvp:
I am in the same boat. First smartphone and I will be doing the minimum (200mb) plan because I plan on using my home/uni wifi most of the time. I dont plan on streaming a bunch of videos or doing pointless browsing, however I am still a little nervous that I might go over.
[Captivate General] TexUs:
I wanted to call BS on this but I did my *DATA# and it says I've used 6MB out of Unlimited.

I could have sworn there's a 5GB cap though.

That said I've used 2.3GB of data since February (last time I reset my usage). So the 2GB plan *should* work. If you use more than that then you're probably using it as a modem.
[Captivate General] caelestis2:
Just use the methods listed here at the end of everyday.

Also, is there a way to block data in/out from the phone if I'm near my limit?
[Captivate General] ltxfreak4:
when i was working at att they gave us some papers detailing data plan that talked about going over the 5gb mark and being hit with a pretty hefty charges. there is a case that is on engadget that i think is what caused them to give us the paper work. i couldnt post the link cause im new but if ya want to read it pm me. i had a customer pull this off and his bill was over 700, ive came close to doing the same as well.
[Captivate General] okmft:
I agree; even normal heavy usage for me did not typically exceed 2gb unless I was watching lots of video or downloading movies. So I can't complain too much about the new 2gb plan restriction, as most months I save $5, which costs less even if I occasionally go over and am charged an additional $10 for another 1gb.
[Captivate General] caelestis2:
how do you save 5$
[Captivate General] dsjr2006:
BS. My average is over 6 GB and I've never received any additional charge or a single phone call. Only tethering and data cards are limited which is because they aren't limited plans. I'm pretty confused as to where this confusion came from because there isn't a single shred of proof of what you're saying anywhere on an AT&T document.

From the DataConnect plan terms... not smartphone

We may, at our discretion, suspend your account if we believe your data usage is excessive, unusual or is better suited to another rate plan. If you are on a data plan that does not include a monthly MB/GB allowance and additional data usage rates, you agree that AT&T has the right to impose additional charges if you use more than 5 GB in a month; provided that, prior to the imposition of any additional charges, AT&T shall provide you with notice and you shall have the right to terminate your Service.

There is nothing is the Wireless Data Use Service Agreement of the general plan terms about a 5GB limitation. The only places that line appears is under the DataPlus, DataPro and DataConnect plan terms.
[Captivate General] caelestis2:
Are you streaming videos like blockbuster or slingbox or something? 6 GB... wow...
[Wildfire General] KPAK:
I want to debrand this phone(not root). Are there any guides out there for this? I have a goldcard already but can't find any guides!
[Wildfire General] Skye Menjou:

[Wildfire General] rexzooly:
If you want to remove Voda or Tmob or Virgin you will see HTC deal with most of there settings with a Senses profile try using Launch Pro from the Market the freeversion will do your needs. see if that helps you :cool:
[Wildfire General] Trism:
Yeah I used one of those to de-brand my T-Mob device. Didn't have any issues at all, although I did have to re-enter my MMS and mobile broadband settings afterwards
[Wildfire General] warriorvibhu:
Just make sure to download the rom for your region .. for rooted devices its not an issue..

Actually in some cases it does. some people have spent up to 16 hours getting that simpleroot to work. One guy never did get it to work and then tried FastRX's method and it worked in 20 minutes. I did the original long version and it was about an hour -90 minutes watching the video at the same time.

Not that I'm saying it's not "simple" I'm just saying different strokes for different folks. What's easy for one may not be so easy for another.

Either way, the post is in the wrong section and I'm not in Vegas so I didn't really add too much to this thread, did I?:D

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] arozer:
Goodbye Android world. We will miss you. =[

Market is gonna be flooded with unnecessary apps now, unless Google will have to APPROVE which apps can be featured in the market or not. If that is the case then that would be GREAT!

They can have the people who made the app put it on their phone manually or share it through e-mails, but for it to be featured in the Market should have some limits.

Also they should have like a basic $5 fee for anyone who wants their app to be tested to see if it can be featured in Market or not.

Damn! I'm just giving Google ideas to charge us. Lol.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] dschoenike:
instead of flooding the market, maybe the apps could be put on a website like appbrain? or maybe that's wishful thinking?
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] fireboy6275:
I would rate pay and have a clean place for applications then not pay and have to dig around to find a decent app that works.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Veritas06:
Project Ares for webOS is the same idea ( if not simpler ) & despite how small the webOS Community is, it didn't lead to a flood of 'crappy apps' in the Catalog.

I really don't think we have to worry about useless apps. They'll probably just get buried along with the other crap ones, & we'll just be able to sit back & wait for the good ones to pop up here & there.

Yes, there probably will be slightly more crapps in the market, but like someone else said in this thread, the cream will rise to the top of the lists. That's how it works.

I'm having a fit waiting for this thing to come out. I'm JavaScript noob with a ton of ideas, so this is my holy grail.

I've made it into every Google beta I've applied for, but so far nothing from App Inventor. :/

Is this true? If so, it almost defeats the purpose of the App Inventor. Especially for phones not running 2.2. Although this is what beta is for. :)

This isn't meant for people who know how to program. It's meant for the average person who has an idea for an app and is somewhat computer saavy.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] engagedtosmile:
It's just so Apple can't use the number of apps in the market as a selling point when comparing it to Android.

I was interested until I found out you can't see your own source code. Would've been great stepping stones into the dev world of Android.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] VSack:
Yup. Remember its a beta and more than likely is adding debug code to your code so that performance can be improved.

Honestly, this should be a godsend to little one-off personal projects but will spell disaster for those who want to push cruft apps into the Marketplace. It'd be great as a RAD for internal apps in a company or to push your very own widget to your phone, but would be a nightmare for those who have no comprehension about battery and resource usage while trying to support public clientele.

In fact, unless otherwise stated, I wonder if these apps will be blocked outright from the Marketplace or most put into a ghetto.

Got my invite as well, not to say I'm not grateful or hate it, but I was rather bummed you can't view the source.

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] Negrito:
I just logged in for a minute to setup my Mac and my phone for it, going to play with it this week.

3MB+ apps? :eek: That does seem ridiculous.
[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] wes342:
a lot of you are saying that you are not happy with the functions of app inventor.

you have to remember its still just a beta.

they are still adding features to app inventor and it is possible that you will be able to pull the files in to eclipse or netbeans.

also if people start publishing garbage apps that is a good thing because then other developers or customers can give feedback on ways to improve the app.

while putting the idea for great apps out to the public for other developers to improve on.

this is why we see such inovative apps on the android app market that we dont see on any other market.

such as augmented reality, mobile hotspots and tons more.

it seems random i just got my invite about a week ago and i signed up the day it was released and i submitted tons of times and it did nto seem to make a difference.

installed fring on couple Aria's

it appears to want to use a source (had no contacts at all) so I allowed it to load list of contacts from google voice

now, when I use it, it only calls the google voice contact but I would like to enter a fring userid who has fring installed, can't seem to find option how to enter?

example: someone else is on fring with userid "fring_12345" - how do I tell fring to open a chat or call to that person? the fring_12345 is also another Aria user.

so, in this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=722281 , they say that the radio version of this rom is 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04 (same as the last desire rom) , and the bootloader version is HBOOT-0.35.0017. can this be useful for the devs ?

edit : it seems that the desire version of this radio has new driver that were the key to implement 720p on it.

I don't know if this is useful, but I flashed it successfully by crafting my very own update.zip :p

This update.zip doesn't have the HBOOT as I have no idea how it impacts the rest of the phone and the flashing/downgrading capabilities of the phone.

My 2 months old hd2 behaving very oddly after latest firmware update from T-mobile site.

Problems.

1. Tries to register to the tower every minute , can notice the ... near the signal bar.

2. Time doesnot get synced.

3. No calls recieved for 3 days, had 7 voice mails from friens screaming. No notification on the phone.

Taken it to the store,

1. They tried a new sim card, no use.

2. Master reset no use.

Store called the cusotmer care.

1. They would not put accross to the tech support because need to wait 2 hrs after replacing new sim card. What a b... (really controlling myself not to write nonsense here.)

2. Store guy tried to convience the customer care for 1 hour just to transfer line to tech support . no sucess . Ordered new phone for replacment. So no phone for me till they ship the new one.

Bought HD2 , believing windows 7 will be released soon , believe microsoft fired the top guy who running the programme.

Question.

1. How do i come out of the t-mobile contract.

2. can i switch to andriod or even stupid iphone.

I been having cell phone for the past 7-8 years , first time in life without phone for a week.

wondering HD2 dumb phone or dumb tmobile or me -dumb for chosing t-mobile ???
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I would suggest you try either flashing back to the previous T-Mobile stock ROM, or to a different radio, that will probably make a big difference in your reception.

Also, did you do a hard reset immediately after flashing to the new ROM?

T-Mobile gives a 14-day buyer's remorse period to be able to return the phone, but you're obviously past that now, so the only way to get out of the contract is to pay the ETF (early term. fee).

As far as the iphone, you would have to buy one elsewhere and get it unlocked to work on T-Mobile's network, and even then you wouldn't get 3G on it.
[HD2 General] senthilvv28:
->not sure what happened in the store , now my battery will not charge, if i pull my power card, it says main batter low and dies off.

I would suggest you try either flashing back to the previous T-Mobile stock ROM, or to a different radio, that will probably make a big difference in your reception.

What firmware update? Has there been one in the last two months?
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I'm assuming he's talking about the 2.13 ROM.
[HD2 General] sirphunkee:
I would first check the battery pins like samsamuel suggested, that might be the source of your batt issue now.

Then, I would first try a hard-reset as a fix for your original problems, and if that doesn't work then try a different radio.
