Hello,
I have had my SGSII for about 2 months, last month on the last day of the billing cycle the phone burnt up 1.7 gigs of data while I was watching the LSU/Alabama football game. I was not using the phone as all my attention was on the football game. After that experience I did some research and found that there was an AP app that is an AT&T program that has caused some of the problems. I installed a data monitoring program called My Data Manager. The same thing happened twice this billing period so far. My Data Manager shows that a program called Streaming Media is using up data. One time was 2.3 gigs while I was at a funeral, so I wasn't using it at that time either, and I heard no music or other noises coming from my phone that would indicate that the phone was streaming music or videos. I called AT&T and talked with them about it, they were of little help other than to give me a $10 credit to offset one of the overages. I am about to go over for the third time as of this writing. I don't know what is causing it. I shut down all programs a couple of times a day with the task manager clearing ram function. I do know that streaming media is used by the web browser when watching a video thru the browser. I'm going to call AT&T again to see what is going on and demand another credit. Any help is appreciated. The Data Manager has not shown the AP program using data at all on my phone, just streaming media going crazy.
