Why is my phone showing a large network data usage by android os in the backggound?

[AC Question]

MY new LG G3 phone is showing a large amount of network data being consumed by android os in the background. My network has also confirmed that my average data use of 98mb has increased to 564mb in two weeks.

Are you set to update apps manually over wifi-only? That may help.

Welcome to the forums. Under Settings>data usage, you can set many, if not all apps to not use background data. That should help a little.
