Seems like it won't affect people using a vpn, since it's all routed through 1 ip and it doesn't seem like they are determining this by how much, but if they detect you using torrent apps and things like that. Still alot of the changes T-Mobile are making lately seem to be anti consumer, ie Jump not being every 6 months anymore, trying to do away with corporate plans before the backlash, raising prices on plans, and now this. It's making me want to jump to prepaid honestly.
Tmobiles throttle is ridiculous too. Im talking slower then 1x. Ive been throttled 3 times now in the past year and the max download speed for all 3 times was .15mbps and yes you read that correctly and I typed it correctly. POINT ONE FIVE Mbps for download and thats on LTE and HSPA

well I called last month and they bumped me up for free as a courtesy. But 3gbs is not enuff especially when youre on the road and alot of free time :-/
And throttled again til September 3rd.
Went to xda.com took 3 minutes to load. But yet I run a speed test says 30s. So tmo obviously doesn't throttle some connections like speedtest. Which is shady as hell in my book.

Don't know where you got that info but it most definitely is unlimited, there is no 5GB cap.
There is no cap, and Sprint doesn't know about your tethering provided you're using a Market app.

i went well over 20gigs this month using 3g and my bill was still the same... no throttling either. your fine.
There is NO cap for 3g/4g on Sprints network at all. There are people using 11GB+ a month with no overage fees(I am not one of them). There is how ever a roaming cap of 300MB.
And one more thing since I'm on a family plan I got a call asking how I already used 1gb and that we now have a 5gb data cap its all over google.

nope, they did have a typo on sprint's website that said that but it was changed a long time ago. If they wanted to they could easily find out if you are tethering though.
The 5gb on 3g cap is for the data cards that you plug into a computer this does not apply to sprint phones now at&t & verizon....

as far as I can tell, its all unlimited, I had one month with almost 3gbs of roaming, no extra charge
There is no limit on 3G or WiMax data usage.
The sole limitations are as follows:
1) Your roaming data usage cannot be larger than your on-Sprint data usage, or else you will incur fees.
2) We will all smack you if you get ridiculous data usage, and Sprint then turns around and increases prices for unlimited data plans and/or eliminates unlimited data plans because of bandwidth hogs like you.
+1 There is ABSOLUTELY NO cap on phone data, only the broadband cards. I went through this last week with customer support then decided to ask our Sprint rep at Best Buy to confirm. The phone plan has absolutely no cap and if you use wifi tether they cant tell anything besides your phone is using data.
For anyone else wanting to argue this, hop on Live Chat with Sprint and verify
There may be a cap if he has a family plan. The $10 that every Evo owner used to moan about entitles us to no cap. However, Sprint has confirmed that any phone that doesn't pay this charge, including data cards, will be capped.
If his family is all on one plan, and only he has the Evo, they may be capping him somewhere.

Hahahaha! I was wondering the same thing! Trying to read what that guy wrote was almost impossible.
i recieved a phone call from my father not sprint saying i used 1gb of the 5gb cap and me him and my bro have a 4g phone. maybe it is cards only but i dont know why he would tell me that. i pay the 10 extra too
What's the most data you've used in a cycle, and has anyone heard a peep from Verizon? My cycle starts on the 26th and I just cross the 10GB mark. Just curious, and thanks for your response.
Thanks for the reply, I'm wondering if at some point high usage will raise an eyebrow from Verizon. I mean, I'll probably break 15GB this month.
I've never gone over 1GB lol. I'm almost always around Wi-Fi. Most its been was like maybe 600MB.

Far from my maximum, but I'd say it's about average. When I'm not downloading ROM's over 3G.

18 gigs? See, now that's what I'm talking about. I'll get close to that this month. Once we get internet set up I won't use so much, or maybe I'll just get an LTE phone and run everthing off that.
Wow I feel so much better now Thanks! Wifi at my house is so flaky I've started tethering my phone, but I stopped since I was worried about using too much data. I'm only at about 4 gb with a week and a half left on my billing cycle. Guess I don't have to worry
At school, I'm always on 3g, because the wifi is flaky. So I usually use 3 gbs. At home, I'll stay on wifi and use about a gig for when I'm out and about.

Verizon has openly stated that they (will/have already) cap the top 5% of data users. You *might* fall into that category or maybe will soon.
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2379296,00.asp
edit:
oops I mean throttle, not cap
Also it looks they will just be putting your data on lower priority. So if there's not too much 3G data demand in your area, you'll stream just as quickly.

I'm looking at 2.4GB and i'm only in day 3 of my cycle lol

The highest I believe I've gone is ~800-900MB. I think I average ~500MB per month. I'm around wifi a lot and I frequently turn my data off when I'm not using my phone.

I was around 16GB last month. I've only had a data plan for a few months now...the Dinc being my first smartphone. I'll be honest, I'm on a budget and I always get good 3G in my apartment (usually reach around 1Mbps, which is acceptable to me), so I dropped my $40/mo AT&T DSL in favor of using my phone as my main internet via tethering, and I haven't looked back. So glad I'm grandfathered with my unlimited data, but I'm totally prepared if my plans fall through and I have to go back to DSL...I figure it's just a matter of time.

Honestly, 5GB is a lot and if you are using your phones tethering to run your home internet well gotta put that one on you...haha. How many movies did you stream and were they in HD? =)
Throttling always stinks though...I am fairly new to TMO but is there a way to pay more to get it turned back on? Luckily I am on a huge business plan so we don't have throttling.

he wasnt asking for that. he wants to know how much data he has used for the month. thats the my account app. you mistaken it for benchmarking the network speed
i upgraded to the 10gb cap because I burn through data like no tomorrow.

i went over my 5gb data last month cause my internet went out and i tethered to my desktop. i did it for about 5 days (mostly nights when i am at the desktop) streaming youtubes and show series. my bill cycle was ending so i didnt care if i get capped but it really sucks because its god awfully slow..
I upgraded my line to the SGS3 yesterday and now I'm noticing that my usage says certain usage out of 4 GB. Not sure what's going on but it appears like Sprint may be removing the unlimited data feature soon? They've been changing a lot of things on their website lately.
Anyways, Overstew sent me this picture of his usage.

Very interesting. Can you hop on their support chat and ask why you're showing a 4GB data limit? Mine is still showing unlimited, but I have not made any account changes or upgrades since 9/2011.
Unlimited Data is practically the only thing keeping me on Sprint. Hell, even T-Mobile is better...

Maybe it's just a 4GB limit per day.
It might have been a bug with the 1 second Leap Second that happened at the end of last month. Just a guess since the billing cycle for the 4GB above is from 4/1 to 4/1.
For more information on it, click here:

a packet is a packet, doesn't matter if it comes from a phone, a computer, or a leap frog toy that your 2 year old son wiped his boogers on. anyone with a clue would know you can torrent on your phone too. did you also forget that some people have done away with cable and simply stream netflix and hulu via HDMI from their phones to their TVs? what about some of the new games that require hundreds of MB of additional data to be downloaded to your sdcard before you can even play it? should they get charged tethering fees for not tethering even though they're using the same amount of data as someone who is?

Cellular data was never meant to be a replacement for your home internet connection.
If you're going to stream Netflix or Hulu to your TV from your PHONE connection, then yes, I think you should get charged for that.
I finally got to it, I set my data plan to the new unlimited 4G and wow what a relief. I wasn't throttle for a few days but didn't have time to call tmobile.
I know this isn't new, but **** it. I'm excited haha, I included a ss of the difference of speeds.

Awesome dude. I got it too and surprisingly I've still only used about 4gb in the past like 20 days.
I finally had to switch from my 5GB "unlimited" to truly unlimited when I got throttled for the first time. Took all about 10 minutes for me to get mad enough to switch.
Come to find out I'm actually saving money when it's all said and done because I was on an old 3,000 minute plan that just wasn't as cost effective as the new plan.
Plus now I'm stoked no throttle worries because ever since I got my Nexus 7 I have been using quite a bit of data. I'm already at 2.7GB with twenty days left in the billing cycle lol
I couldn't take it either, what a pain it was. I'm saving money too. I was paying $35 a month for the 5GB 'unlimited' but now I pay 30.
Now I can use data without worry, it's definitely worth it.

Damn me too, got a text saying I hit my 5GB limit this morning, just got off from 611 switched my plan to the unlimited one, ten bucks extra but I think it's totally worth it.
Wait what do you guys mean unlimited off the prepaid plan... How?

Are you guys signing 2 year Contacts for the truly unlimited or is there something km missing

I think it's not exist for prepaid, $20 for value plan, or $30 for classic plan
I dont have unl 4G just unl 2G data, 100kb/s isn't to bad for me especially when I am always connected to a WiFi hotspot 90% of the time when I use my phone. Though when I am able to afford it I am probably going to switch to unl 4G because I mean who doesnt want unl 4G? lol
I had 2Gb and after a month switched to unlimited.
My WIFI is completely off, so far I used 4Gb in 10 days.:good:
Those speeds don't seem to fast I get around 20mbps !
Made the switch to T-mobile back in October and got my first smartphone along with it.
Went with the Value plan for myself along with two other phones.
Unlimited 4G was included and we pay roughly $134 monthly.
Love the fact that I never have to worry about data usage or caps.
However, I am pretty much the only one that uses the data connection on their phone. And I don't use too much.
The coverage in my area just isn't good. Tested a few different modems and found one that helped to increase the data to about 5-12 mbps at home and school.

Yeah, I get around 15mbps myself.
My first month with unlimited data i used 48gb of data without tethering last month i used 38gb of data. Its fast enough that i don't even worry about WiFi even at home. I'm really loving the t mobile right now

You're making me jealous of those speeds haha. My connection at home is just horrible. It goes from 4G to edge to ml data at all then to edge, etc. It's just a big hassle

I hate it when Philly dont get the love from Tmobile, from 160+ cities that got full HSPA speed, philly aint one of them.
Average I got around 4-6 Mbps, some area 9, my home tower is worse, not even 2 Mbps.
