[Q] Android System uses alot of data.

I'm monitoring my data usage on my phone because I have al limited data subscription. Now I see Android System Using alot of data (background) when the phone is in standby. I dunno what for, when I press to look at the stats it just says Android System. I don't backup, only sync my contacts, gmail and agenda. Is there someting I'm overlooking that uses data through the android system. Its frustrating because its eating my data away without the knowledge on what or which program is using.
Maybe someone can inform me what to do? Used 90 MB in the last five days only on Android System.
SOLVED: It was a app called Dumpert.nl (dutch app for funny movies) everytime I played a movie it was loading as Android System. I noticed it when Dumpert wasn't showing any big data usage while using 3G.

restrict background data in data usage in setting
I have similar problem, but it is still within my data plan limit, so I just ignore it!
What I hate are these general terms in the data monitor app. Android system! Please google try to break it down to something more detailed for a normal user!
I also have quite a lot of data used by the play store, although I never download or update apps except on WIFI! I'm not sure how I got this data used!

Restricting the background data isn't possible with Android-System. It's bugging the hell out of me. I come from iPhone and if this isn't going to be sorted out soon. I will get a iPhone because this is not normal. I want to be the one who is using data and not the system alone. Google needs te be more specific on this subject. Nobody knows what "Android-System is doing. All the information is blocked.

[Q] Step Counter - Any way to save data?

Each Android Wear smartwatch has a step counter built in, which is cool. It keeps your history, but from what I can tell the data isn't saved anywhere. I used my G Watch for a few days, then applied a factory reset. My history was completely gone and it started over again. Is there a way to save this data? Does anyone know if Runtastic or Runkeeper does? I presume the data will eventually be part of Google Fit, but I would like to save the data now.

I'm also interested in saving this data programmatically. I'm writing an application that will save this data to the server and then combine it with some other analytics. Maybe we can access SQLite to get that data? Does anybody know?
Hey guys,
I just published an application that can export the data into a CSV file, as well as count the amount of time that you are walking for (in addition to just the steps). You can find it here:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sm.stepsassistant
Let me know if there are any bugs!
Also, it was *just* published, so if it isn't visible yet, it will be soon.
don't have my watch yet but downloading your app for when I do! thanks!!!
i would imagine apps like myfitnesspal should add support for this very shortly...

Background data from sbrowser caused me a bill of $15k

Hello guys,
I am searching for help to investigate the "internet" app data usage that used background data while I was on roaming, causing a bill of $15K.
From the data usage I can see that the app that consumed was "internet" over background data, it points to the app "com.sec.android.app.sbrowser".
I have rooted the phone and created a full backup of the phone, and I am now trying to dig into the files to see what kind of site/data was used to pull this 4GB of data on the background.
I was not able to find any relevant file under /data/data/com.sec.android.app.sbrowser
I was also looking into /data/system/netstats
I have a couple of files but I cannot match them to nothing:

Can someone please guide me what files would contain the traffic info? I am desperate to identify the root cause so that I can provide to the provider.
Thank you a lot in advance.
$15k ?
I'd be telling the provider to do one, something is wrong their end, no way a browser would cause that much unless your phone was infected with a premium rate txt or call virus

Exactly, but they don't have any forensic team.
When I do file uid.1442341207969-
I can see uid.1442341207969-: GLS_BINARY_MSB_FIRST but I don't know how to open this files.
Anyone has an idea in how to open these files?

How to not list an app mobile data usage on Android Data Usage list.

Hi Guys,
I am trying to get Android not to track data usage of an specif app, but the only option I could found was to shut down app data usage at all.
But I dont want that, I just want that android do not consider this app's data usage in the total count.
This happens because my carrier offers me some free data usage on certain apps (whatsapp and deezer), so I dont want them to be on the systems data usage statistics...
Is it possible?
ps: I know I can probably download an data control app to get this like I want, but I wanted to keep using Android native data control.
Thank very much!

Change usage data for specific application

I made a bet with a friend to see who has more hours in an app. I'm think I might lose so i want to add about 100 hours to my usage data. Is this possible? I don't have root but I'm willing to root my phone if it's necessary..
