There are a multitude of ways to reduce your use of 3g. Now with the 2.5 Gb speed cap we should become aware of these things. So...
1. Download or buy 3g watchdog, and for sake of idea of usage set it to 2.5 Gb
2.if you're using aosp cm7, long press the screen and add the power control widget and customize it to turn on and of 3g. so when your not using 3g for anything, turn it off. This also saves alot of battery power.
3. If your not running a rom with a customizable power control just download the power control widget off the market and set it as described in step 2
4. USE WIFI AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! If you have wifi at home turn off 3g and use your wifi for anything if your just bumming around your house, use wifi!
5.download music you want, therefore you don't have to stream music. Either buy your music, or use music junk, just don't blame me if you get caught
6. Change social media update intervals and widget update.intervals. if you have a widget that updates info every so-often change the update time so instead of say every 5 mins it updates every 30mins for example.
7. Tethering, just don't even bother anymore, unless absolutely necessary...wayyyy too data consuming.
8.just generally cut down on 3g usage, economize people
I hope this helps you guys stay under the data cap
