How easy or difficult has it been for you all to stay under the 5 gig cap? I have not yet exceeded it but I come within 100 megs almost every month by monitoring usage with 3g watchdog and just limiting myself. However, I do not feel like I am doing anything excessive. Its just web, youtube, music, and Pandora that is using most of the data. You know, the kinds of things one buys a $300 SGS II (with subsidy) for. I also tether to my Kindle to browse the web, for which I pay almost double my normal $20/month (I pay an extra $15/month just to have a built in feature re~enabled) without receiving any increase in my cap. All I'm doing is using the very features of my phone that tmobile advertises. Do you all have trouble staying under the cap? I feel like I have a ferrari that can do 200 mph (tmobiles 42 mbps network is fantastic in my area, delivering 10 to 30 mbps), but has a one gallon tank. Yes, I use wifi at home.
Finally, just how slow does the speed go if you do go over? Does the network connect to EDGE or stay on 4g and just slow down? How slow is it? I can't seem to get a straight answer. I know video and music wont work but can you still use the web like on EDGE or are we talking unusable GPRS like speed?
Thanks!
Unusable gprs speed. Even webpages time out.

I use wifi on my laptop... because its connected to my phone... via wifi hotspot
But yeah, I never turn on wifi and I have 0 use for wifi calling.
I don't know about you, but my Wifi at home is on a 110mbit cable modem. Beat that with your "4G" HSPA+
Wifi also uses less battery, and anything you do on wifi doesn't chew up your monthly Gigabyte allowance.

your wifi is slow not because of the fact that youre on wifi, but because your own ISP's provisioned line is slow - thus, you have a slow internet package with your provider, either that or your having intermitten speed issues with the line. and there is no "100%" unlimited data on 4g/hspa+, max is 5gbs then youre throttled to be on edge. but really, i have the 2gb on 4G package and i can barely use a gig on a monthly basis from usual web browsing. i guess i shall start streaming some movies on the phone..

Most of the time I'm at college and wifi is free so why not use it? Besides here the max down is 3mbs and wifi is 10. At home we don't have a dedicated internet connection so I tether to all my devices there.

My Wifi is faster than my data.
Wifi is faster than my data. I dont want to get throttled because of how much data i use. Data uses more vattery because its onstantly searching and switching from hspa+, gms ,etc.
Message relayed from the dark side.
My wifi is faster than 4g. Also, my block has terrible service (previously had Verizon, it was horrible, my neighbors have sprint, it sucks too), so I use wifi calling because my wifi signal strength acts as my signal, so I get all calls, texts & don't drop calls.

It's typically better to use WiFi whenever it's available at your leisure.
Because when i play modern combat 3 online it requires wifi

- wifi uses less battery
- its free.. doesnt use up my monthly 5gb so i dont get throttled
- ground level apartment doesnt get good service ..sometimes no service.. so wifi + wifi calling is almost necessary
- wifi is faster than 4g (unless you have crappy internet like OP must have)
- Having my phone on the same wifi network as my Samsung TV ( with built in wireless ) allows me to use my phone as a remote control for the TV and also i can send pictures , music, videos , whatever from my phone wirelessly to my tv
When did wifi become free? Am I missing something here? If your at home and your using a wireless router to use the wifi off, then is it really free. I can understand being out and using it but at home your paying your ISP and tmobile. I agree data speeds at home are usually faster but I get 12 and sometimes 16mb at home on tmobile. Currently tethering on my plan and it beat my ESP in downloads. Keep in mind my old plan with Comcast was 12mb and my most recent was only 1-1.5mb.

I use wifi when available. Doesn't count against my data plan and my home internet is much faster then my home 4g data connection.
Why would anyone use 4g when wifi and a fast internet connection is available?

Yes , it's free. I have a fast internet connection for my home network and it doesn't cost me any more to use wifi for my phone and tablet. I'm paying for the internet connection any way so why not take advantage?
i use wifi every chance i get! more stable and saves more energy.
Really OP? I get 20mb down at home and 15+ when at bdubs or starbucks or any similar place. It's 2012 man, who doesn't love free interwebs without eating at our data plans?

I'm usually at 6gig and I live on this thing.

I used to use about 1-2 GB on 3G, but then I got a wifi router for home.
Now I barely use 200 MB. Plus moving files between PC and phone w/o cables @3 MB/s is pretty nice.
My idiot friend said he used over 300gb one month because he was downloading ps3 games.... Idiots like that are the reason we won't have unlimited forever.... The odd thing is he said that he never got a warning or disruption in his service. I never even get close to you guys cuz I am on wifi virtually everywhere I go

Did you hit 11GB through phone usage or through tethering? My home internet provider in my building went out of business so I had to start tethering and I hit 18GB of 4G. From what I understand, Sprint doesn't care as long as you aren't roaming. Before tethering, I would go through about 3-4GB a month.

300GB? I think that would be a pretty good reason on their part. He's using 20-30X the amount of data the average data hog here uses (or admits to using). And that's 300X the amount of data the average user (people who live in the 21st century and have wifi at home) uses.
That's obnoxious even compared to other abusers!
Other than illegally downloading warez, I can' think of a single legitimate way a normal person could go through that much bandwidth. Even streaming Netflix... that's 300+ movies (from my experience watching data use on the phone). The hogs here who stream Pandora every day even stay in the low 2 digits of data use.
That idiot friend deserves to get booted!
I hit around 1.3GB last month on 4G (Usage reset yesterday). And I used around a Gig or so on 3G. Im typically always on Wifi though, so my data isnt as high as it would be if it werent for me using Wifi. I get AWESOME 4G coverage at my apartment too
used +8gbs of 4g on primary line this past month, streaming like crazy....bought nba league pass, only use google cloud music for music and heavy surfing. im not worried about overages, ive got a smarthphone to use not stare at.
as for that 300gb claim....id say youre friend is just a douche and didnt even come close to that. i doubt you could even pull 300 gigs of data in a month due to poor sprint coverage/service
The most I ever used was 6.5 gigs and that's because I was testing this torrentlt client on my phone. Lol I downloaded the entire Naruto series.

My highest has been 25GB on 4g and 2GB on 3g. I'm already at almost 5GB on 4g n not even at 1GB yet on 3g since I barely use that crap. I got 17 more days left in this cycle so i'm sure I'll be at about 20GB by the end of this cycle.

I think you're good...a lot of us have hit high numbers for one reason or another and if you actually have a good signal and utilize your phone for streaming music and uploading pics, etc its not hard to hit a higher number.
When I moved to a new place a few months ago I tethered my revue and two laptops for a couple of weeks until I had broadband hooked up and hit 48 gigs...no letters in the mail. I get great 4G at home and 3G for that matter and average around 10 gigs a month combined usage. Sprint is great if you're in a strong signal area.
I don't understand why a home ISP internet provider can give you all the data you want but cell companies decided to cap people and offer tiered plans. It is not like it cost them more if I use 2 gigs or 4 gigs of data.
Is is a real shame that mobile providers took this direction with data. Getting anything more then the 2 or 3 gig plan just makes your cell phone bill an outrages unaffordable price.
Sprint is great that they still offer unlimited data but when you are using 3G and getting 40kbs what is the point? How could Sprint have ever let there network get this bad. When I had the EVO 4G and I never needed to turn of 4G. Since it killed the battery within hours I was able to use 3G for anything I wanted to without a problem.
Now, if you are not in a 4G area, you phone is almost useless as far as data is concerened. Streaming anything is almost near impossible.
If Sprint actually fixes their network and has LTE 2 years from now I am sure they will not be unlimited either. If they were to tier now, why would anyone in their right mind stay with them? Like Sprint took everything else away from their customers, unlimited data will be next. They just need a network that they can pull that BS on...
Depends on who your ISP is.
ATT has a 100gb limit, and I get a lousy 2.5mbs for $38 month...
Comcast has a 250gb limit.

There may not be a direct monetary cost, but bandwidth being consumed by one user is bandwidth unavailable for other users to use; it is a rival resource. Users who use a large amount of data place a higher burden on the network than users who use a typical amount and cause data speeds for these users to be lower than they would be otherwise. This reduction in service quality experienced by other users could cause them to leave the network and cost the service provider.

DSL users are capped at 150GB, U-Verse has no cap since AT&T can't distinguish the TV usage from actual internet usage, so they don't cap that at all.

I was curious about differences between data plans. I'm grandfathered in to unlimited data and I've heard that they will throttle your data speed if your in the top nth% of bandwidth usage. Is there any way to get an idea of how many gb of data that actually is?
And are there any cases where at&t has taken unlimited data away for abusing it?
I was downloading 700mb ROM on LTE and it took like 60 second which is faster than wifi, but I sure as hell wouldn't do that if I was on a 3gb plan.

Every month that I hit 3GBs of data use, I get throttled. I have been told that people grandfathered into the Unlimited Data Plan and using an LTE phone get throttled at 5 GBs of data usage. This will be my first month on LTE, so I guess we will see! Until now I have been on a 3G plan, so I am hoping that it does change it to 5 GB or higher.
I got throttled @ 5GB on LTE about 5 days ago with 12 more days left on my billing cycle
It's actually not that bad being throttled...it's capped to only about 600Mbps. The thing is at network access starts fasts but quickly slows down to 600Mbps. Due to this web browsing, emailing, and messaging doesn't seem any slower as they usually require short/brief network access. What is noticeable is Youtube performance and updating/downloading apps via GooglePlay.

I've read that if you get throttled on the LTE plan @ 5GBs you can switch your APN over to the "4G" (e.g. ATT APN used on the SGH-I777) and you can get highers speeds (not LTE) until you hit 3GBs cap.
Haven't tried it out myself.

You are correct, that's what I do everytime I hit my 5GB limit., just switch to 'phone' APN and change you connection type to not look for LTE. works like a champ.
do a search for the 'phone' APN
I got throttled for the first time this month on the last day before my billing cycle ends (I got the text message a day earlier). I'm on a grandfathered unlimited plan and AT&T reports my data usage at 5.1Gb. The strange thing is that a few days ago, my data was reported to be ~8Gb by AT&T and by my phone. My phone still says ~8Gb, but AT&T now says 5.1Gb. My speed is now around 600Kbps down and 2Mbps up, where it used to be 16Mbps down and 6Mbps up. I haven't tried the APN switch, but I might try it if I get throttled earlier in the month.

You say "600 Mbps" but I really think you mean 600 Kbps. There's a big difference and 600 Kbps is actually painfully slow when you're coming from 8-25 Mbps depending on if you have HSPA, HSPA+ or LTE. My home internet connection is 889 Kbps and it's really slow for downloading large ROMs. So unfortunately I have been quite reluctant to download ROMs from my phone because I don't want to get throttle on my unlimited plan. It looks like I will continue to not go over my 5 Gb soft cap so I won't be throttled. I might as well not have unlimited
Think about this. Yes we get throttled at 5gb. But, we pay the same as a tiered 3gb plan. And even if we hit 5GB, we don't get charged an extra $10 for more data.
I do agree and I'm just nit picking. I consider myself lucky that still have an unlimited plan. My situation may be a bit different than others because my phone is by far the fastest data connection I have. Period. Way faster than my home or my job, so I have a tendency to use it for everything. I feel as though they could give people more data though. I realize that a 'small percentage' use over 5 gb, but I don't see a problem with doubling all the tiered plans including those with grandfathered unlimited plans soft cap. AT&T has a LOT of money.

I think i may be getting thorttled... what speeds are u guys getting?
They throttled me at the 2gb mark. Called them and *****es them out something fierce. They told me it was because it was I had gone over 2gb in one cycle. I asked them about the past where the website said I had used 17gb. Didn't get throttled then, why now?
Dude couldn't give me an answer. I think the system picked up on my because I sent the *3282# to see what my data usage was.
After I got off the phone with them, researched and forunf the other apn settings to use, no problems thus far. No throttling, no slowdowns. That was with my galaxy note i717.
Not I have a razr xt910, don't bother to check my data and, no throttling.

So I recently switched from Sprint to Tmo. And so far I can say the speeds are at least 3x faster if not more. Which is great! The only thing is I'm not used to a data limit so I'm scared to even use data if I can't find wifi. But I forced myself to use pandora and memedroid with some mild app downloading and before I started using my hotspot, I managed to hit 700mb with 1-2 weeks left in my cycle. So 2.5gb is pretty good imo data and price wise.
Then, as I was celebrating my birthday yesterday at my friends house, I decided to try out my hotspot (Stock rom) and watch some netflix. Watched ONE episode of south park and pushed my data to around 1.1gb. Figuring I was just about at the end of my cycle, and wanting to see how bad throttling could be, I decided to use it again and stream a comedy special and reached within about 45 minutes.
Dear god I had no idea throttling could be so terrible. I was figuring 3g speeds comparable to sprints network (Which is still somewhat terrible) but this 2g is HORRENDOUS! 15kb just makes me want to cry. I'm amazed we don't even get dial-up speeds. But at least they don't charge overages which is nice, so no real complaints.
Answer me this though, I've seen a few threads mentioning unrestricted hotspots and came across this thread which talks about evading the throttle. Is this still possible; and what exactly does it mean to unrestrict the hotspot? Say I upgrade to unlimited, I remember hearing it throttles after like 5-10gb even with unlimited, is this true?

I'm using jovy's Darthstalker ROM and the unrestricted hotspot is still working great. And if you have the truly unlimited data plan they do not throttle you at all, since switching to it back in September I have routinely hit 20-30 GB a month and not been slowed down.
I've used 7.1gb of my unlimited plan and no throttle, also I've used over 10gb and no throttle either.. As far as the hotspot, I think it still works but I've read people saying that no matter what you do they will eventually find out and block the hotspot access
