Hey all, new here and such. I've found other threads questioning whether the HTC One X is a data hog. The first time I noticed a problem on my phone was when I was on O2 in Germany a few weeks ago. It said I used over 2gb of data in just a couple of weeks, when the phone's data usage monitor only said 20 or 30mb. I started scouring the forum and other sites and couldn't figure out what it was. At the suggestion of some sites, I downloaded "My Data Manager" just to cover my ass.
I'm now in Montenegro, and I purchased a ?20, 2gb prepaid card for my phone. In less than a week, it said I used all the data. Both the phone's data usage monitor and the My Data Manager app match and show that I used only 9mb. I rarely use data and have wi-fi in my place. I don't use email on my phone; I mainly use it for translate and other piddly things. Everything the phone tells me on all data logs say that I used a total of 9mb. Yet here I am, five days into a 2gb card, and it's telling me I'm out of credit. WTH?
Anyone have any ideas? I never download music or watch youtube or anything, and the strange thing to me is that both data monitors show what looks realistic to what I've been doing. So amazingly aggravating.
I want to go back to the T-Mobile store and ask, but they're not exactly pros here. I also don't want to buy more data if I don't know what the problem is and cannot control it. I should also say that, outside of this annoying issue, I love this phone like crazy.
Thanks!
