Hi,
I have recently acquired a Nokia lumia 900, great phone, but I have noticed my data usage is much higher than my wife's Samsung Focus flash.
I am on wifi all day at work, and when I get home. So at most I am off wifi 2 hours a day and that is driving to and from work.
When comparing her data usage to mine, I see some strange things.
For instance her average sent data size is 40 - 55lk, and this is consistent all month long. On my phone, I see a lot of 4100KB - 5500kb sent at times when I should be on wifi.
I have location services on, but so does she.
I have most background tasks turned off and only have email checked every 30 mins.
I am already at 60mb of data usage for the month and I rarely if ever use the phone when not connected to WiFi.
Any thoughts/suggestions are most appreciated!
Thanks!
BCA
