Okay well the title basically explains it, my data usage statistics are not updating. It's currently August 18th and my usage cycle ends on the 11th of each month. Running neomax and currently s-on. Thanks to anyone who can help.
I've found that the data usage app is absolutely worthless. Every month I compare what Android says my data usage is compared to what verizon says it is and they are no where near the same. Verizon says my usage is 850-1,000 MB while Android usage app shows only around 300-350 MB. So, I just ignore what the data usage app says.

Like right now, VZW says I have used 2.23GB of data (day 20) and my phone says I have used 0.93GB. D:

True, but to have such a disparity between the two reports is odd.
They have to say that to cover themselves just in case, but I guarantee they intended for it to be accurate. I'm sure they will make it more accurate in future updates.

Its odd to see so many people saying the bandwidth meter is inaccurate.. Mine has always been pretty much right on the money every month!
I do notice that there are some apps that don't get reported individually - for instance, WiFi Tether is never listed as an app that has consumed bandwidth in the list below the graph. But the total amount of bandwidth consumed always seems to be right. In other words, even though WiFi Tether is not listed with exactly how much bandwidth it used, that bandwidth is still being reported by the graph, and the cumulative total always seems to be in line with what Verizon reports I have used..
Guys the problem isn't that the statistics aren't accurate with what VZW says, its that its August 20th and the usage cycle has not updated since august 11th!

OH!!! Ok my bad..
I have no clue. Everytime I have weird **** like that start to happen, it usually means its time for a full wipe and start over.
I've started to notice that Android is a little like Windows used to be.... After awhile it just starts to bog down and weird **** starts to happen that doesn't make sense. Only solution I've found in these cases is to do a full wipe and start over.

So this week I've discovered a hidden feature on my Rezound: it doubles as a portable pocket burner. Not sure if that is too be expected (having read through the other battery threads, it seems that 120°F is typical eye-bulge territory), but if it happens again i'll probably start the replacement phone process.
This happened off charger, just playing a high quality graphics game for 20 minutes.
Just seems a bit high to me, but any further insight is welcome. (as a comparison i've read on the Galaxy Nexus forums that a few folks are getting ancy at around the 120°F mark as well).
Maybe the Rezound is just has a poor design in reference to heat dissipation? Maybe I have a defect? I can live with it, so long as I know its not that big of a deal. I'd like to avoid waking up next to a phone shaped melt hole on my night stand.
Did you try frying any bacon or eggs on the screen?

If I remember correctly, I was using the new Onlive app for the temp in my OP (but it gets north of 125°F commonly on normal games). If you (or anyone else reading this) have that app, would you mind running it for few minutes & reporting back? It wouldn't surprise me if it played a role in tipping the temp over the edge (Onlive is a magical service // magic = power).

^^ Nice. This is what we all need to know. Can you do something fancy / intensive w/ your replacement phone for a few minutes and see if you can get it into bacon mode again? (gaming or streaming w/ 4G enabled, etc).
If we can confirm that "hot phone" is somehow a hardware issue, its warranty time.

You don't need juice defender. It'll have a more negative effect on battery as its just another process running in the background.
I got the same message. There was a beta version of one that didn't have the same message. I ended up not using any of them but I am curious as to why we would get that message.
Anyone with any ideas?

+1. I love this app. If I leave mobile data running, battery life on this phone sucks. With it I run schedules with mobile data where I can still get emails, and use my phone for more than 6 hrs. Don't know about the installation issues, since I've had it for awhile, just wanted to defend the app for those who feel it's not necessary

Hi,
So as the title states i have 0 data [3G/LTE]..
Background:
This afternoon my rezound went dead and wouldn't charge.
So after 6 hours on the charger and no turning on my girlfriend came home with her rezound. i popped the battery in and it started right up except it wouldnt boot all of the way.
After a few tries i wiped and tried again. Still no go. So i wiped and went to flash a backup and sdcard wouldnt mount. After a few unsuccessful tries on device and computer i pressed reformat. That got the SD working.
I downloaded a few roms both ICS and GB wiped and installed. None will provide me mobile data. It sees wifi networks just fine.
My girlfriend has both LTE and 3G and i have full cell bars.
WTF!?

IM not trolling I had a no data issue leaving work and was going to mention it. The only way I fixed it was a full reboot. Also after I rebooted I was stuck in cdma prl. Changed it to cdma/lte and it started working. The weird thing was it said data was on but no 1x 3g or 4g. Toggled everything and nothing helped cept the reboot.
Also atleast HTC doesn't make you wait for over a year for a barely updated version of the same thing and make you feel like you need it (Apple)

Well, its in the terms, but from somebody else on three I hear that you can go to 50GB without getting throttled. They only have 400k users here in Ireland, of a population of over 4mil so contention is pretty low compared to other networks like o2 who have a majority share in the market with loads of business iphones chugging through bandwidth.
Im on three UK and regularly hit 40 gig a month.
