I have had AT&T for awhile, and I just swapped to an S4 from a One X, and I am on a 4GB Data plan. I was curious as to how much data I was using after having the phone for a couple days so I did the "check or data" code and I come back with something odd. I have never seen it show 2 different sections for data before on any device that I have had. I haven't touched wifi so far, I have been at work mostly and our wifi is pretty slow. I also checked on my account page on the AT&T website and it shows the same as the top line that I haven't used any data at all.

When my friend switched over to the S4 he also had the 4GB plan but they screwed up and gave him unlimited. That was months ago when the s4 first came out. Check under services online and see if it reads "data unlimited for smartphone LTE add on" or something like that.
Congrats if you have unlimited now. They don't really throttle anymore.
Well thats interesting. I actually started a new account under an ANR line and just went for the 4GB data because I tend to use more. If I log in on the site it tells me I have the 4gb and I have used zero of it. If I have unlimited then that is going to be awesome lol, I think I am going to try to go over to see if they charge me teh $10 per GB. This is what the MyAT&T app says

It looks to me like there are two data plans on your account. That might be where the error is. It would have to say XXXo of 4,096 deactivated and then your new unlimited plan, e.g, ... xxx of unlimited. Log onto your AT&T account and see if your feature for your data plan says what mine does.
Well for mine, it doesn't show anything as current. I can't edit anything on my account without it screwing up either. I have to talk to my account executive and they do it for me. ANR accounts are kinda weird.
You have two data plans on your account... Try to get the 4gb removed...
It should look like this :

Hey Guys,
I have a weird question, i have a p4000 from telus in canada and i DONT have caller ID. Telus charges a ridiculous fee for it.
However when i go the caller id screen i can see the numbers of my calls for like 1/2 a second then it goes blank. This is enough that i can get my last call anyways.
Is there any way to completely unlock this via software that anyone knows??
My Telus bill is about $180/mo. (For my HTC Titan & my wife's RAZR V3c.)
...
*sob*
i think mine is 100 or so for the p4000 and the touch.

I agree on the price gouging. I stripped everything off my P4000 plan months ago. No data, no CID, no voicemail, everything except a 20$/month calling plan. I didn't do this because I don't need the features, quite the contrary. But it's my way of protesting the horrible monopoly we're stuck with in Canada. ****em, they're not getting access to my wallet until they match Sprint's unlimited data, unlimited text and 500 minutes for 30$ a month.

Now, what do you mean by the "caller id screen"? Maybe there is way to hack it but I'm not sure what you're referring to.
I'm referring to the screen you get when you are at the phone screen and you press the button named: Call History
I couldn't find a shot of it in its default state but here is what it looks like if you have the contact photos addon:

Any idea's??
Im in a little bit of a pinch. I never use voice and I use sip with 3g when I do.
So I thought of a solution.
I heard the sidekick could have just internet so...
To get your bill under 50 bucks you must have that.
I figured out how to have just a dataplan...
First go to t-mobile.com
And login

}
Stroll till you see this.
Then click the Not your phone link
Choose check sidekick.
Scroll down untill you see the green "t-mobile sidekick™" Click it.
Now it will go back to my t-mobile. scroll all the way down until the links at the bottom and click Plans & Services.
Click Change plan
Now scroll a little untill you see.
check the button and scroll all the way down and click change plan.
Now click manage.
press not my phone again
check t-mobile.
and scroll down untill you see your g1.
press the select button.
And congrats you are now paying less than 50 bucks for your g1 the sidekick plan will stay on even after you say its a g1 again ...
Also to get no data plan chose some cheepy phone and in services click no data plan ...
Any particular reason you dont select THIS plan: http://www.t-mobile.com/shop/plans/....aspx?tp=tb1&rateplan=T-Mobile-Total-Internet ??
Its even cheaper.
But if your on a sidekick plan then won't they cut off the data. People were complaining that they had the sidekick plan or the web2go or one of the other data plans and it worked until not to long ago. Now the G1 data will only work under the G1/Android data plan or am I looking at something wrong. I can't see the pics so I might be missing something.
No I meant choose like a cheap ghetto phone that can have just voice to do that.
Anyway I don't know what phone has that total internet so...
idk
My top paid section is missing in the Android Market for the Nexus One. Anyone else see this? is there a reason why??
No its there. Are you in a not-yet-supported country? Maybe your provider hasn't done the necessary paperwork. Post some info!
that's odd. I am with tmobile. I did sign onto the market initially with WIFI and then with 3G. Anyone know how to correct this? I have to totally reformat? or can I just clear my market cache or something?
having the same issue, on t-mobile, i also went on with wifi before putting my sim in
Might wanna try a hard reset this time using 3G first to see what happens.
sorry to be a mega noob but i don't know how to hard reset it, i tried holding the ball and the power button and i get this fast boot screen thing.
edit: nevermind i found it, i feel stupid
edit2: that fixed the problem
Recently is disappeared the column of paid apps from my market

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
They are present in "just in" and in the research, but the column is missing.
Is there a solution that does not involve the wipe?
I had this problem until I finally put my sim in. The market appearently uses the sim to validate your location. Could be you need a new sim from T-Mobile and there is some issue with yours.
I spent about three days setting up mine before moving the sim over and used wifi for everything. Once I put in the sim everything worked fine and it showed all the paid apps.
I have never had that Paid apps in my Market section.. I ordered my Nexus One and had my brother ship it over to me in Kuwait. It never saw my ATT sim card, only a local Wataniya SIM card.. Guess it will have to wait till I get home to be able to use that feature!
This helped me: http://android.modaco.com/content/g...daco-com/303251/paid-apps-android-market-1-6/
In special, the last part about the xml.

Thanks!!
It works!!
I have a Samsung Captivate. Its on AT&T's $50 Unlimited Talk, Text and Web plan, however, the web part is disabled. I have to buy a separate Data Plan to make the internet work.
I was just wondering if there are any free mobile networks out there? Perhaps setting a new APN that lets me on the net without paying for it, how ever slow it may be. I'm not talking about WiFi either. I mean an internet that can used while outside of a WiFi hotspot.
I've heard of such things, but can't find any information about it.
I don't think such a thing exists, cuz whatever APN/VPN/... you're setting up, it still has to go through whatever your provider is..

Are you serious? You think a service provider is going to let you eat their bandwidth for nothing? If that were the case, why would ANYONE pay for data? Keep dreaming big, my friend.

In order to use the unlimited featurephone data on the $50 prepaid plan with a smartphone, you need to use an Android device AT&T doesn't recognize. That means an unbranded device with AT&T's 3G frequencies.

Exactly, look for a desire Z or a milestone.
This could go for any phone, but since I have the Nexus 4 I thought I should post it in here.
I just received an update for T-Mobile My Account, the one on the Play store that gives you the information in your notification window, and after the update it was showing me the "Tutorial" Screen and I noticed that it was showing "XX/Unlimited" for minutes and texts.

On my phone however it only shows up "Unlimited" ... I'm curious if I can get the actual count to show up on mine, and how? I am on a monthly pre-paid plan, so I'm not sure if that is why. Since I am unlimited, it's not life or death, just something I'd like to be able to get the stats on.
If anyone has a Nexus 4 and was able to do this and can tell me that would be awesome, or if anyone knows of a setting within the app itself?
Thanks in advance everyone.

there should be a data tracking in the settings menu that let you know how much data you have used
From my experience the app will not show stats for anything that is unlimited as there is no point in keeping track of it. Mine shows minutes used, as I only have 100, unlimited texts with no number given, and how much data I've used as the cap it at 5 GB. Verizons app does the same thing, as I have true unlimited data it never shows how much I have used but as my minutes and texts are limited I get a count on them.
OK that's cool ... I had seen the pictures and was wondering, no biggie!
Thanks all!
