ok someone brought this up to me and i have no idea as to if they are right or wrong and sprints customer service didn't really help. so i turned to the great xda community in the hope of finding an answer.
so im going on a road trip relatively soon and someone sayed that if you are using 3g while out of your "home area" if you will. that there is not a data cap for 4g but there is one for 3g even when not roaming. so what i would like to know is if the 3g cap is true or not and if so how big is it "5gb, 2gb, etc." because i plan on tethering my evo to my laptop and since 4g is pretty much nowhere i will probably be using 3g and don't want to have to pay some outrageous "you use the internet to much" charge on my bill.
p.s. i have a 1500 shared unlimited plan
come on someone has to have some kind of answer to this
Don't qoute me but I'm pretty sure that if there is a cap (2gb?) Its just a soft cap. IF they believe its being abused, the most they will do is throttle your data speeds. But really they will only notice if you're a long time offender. Even then, I've read many posts on xda from people saying they hit 5gb+ every month with no problem.

blah sadly today tmobile capped by data, because i went over the`5gb limit. is there a way to uncap it, or at least does anyone have an idea?
It took me just a week to get my data capped. Its because id rather use my phone and get 8mbps instead of my home Internet which is sadly 0.4mbps. I don't think its possible to get the cap removed. Your going to have to wait till your next cycle.
I thought they just throttle it and not cap it?

GEEZ, what are on do you guys do to stream so much data? I've never hit close to that in a month
Lol i practically use my phone as a computer. I download things from games to music
I thought that for Unlimited Data they just drop you down to 3G after you've used 5GB on 4G.
It is my understanding that they throttle you pretty hard at 5 GB, to GPRS or EDGE speeds.
If you haven't deleted it, My Account will show your usage. I use 3G Watchdog which will straight-line predict your end-of-month usage as well.
For people not used to the speeds available, it isn't hard to chew up 5 GB in a month. For example, if you stream 128 kbps radio for an hour in the morning and an hour on the way home, that is about 3.3 GB of payload, so probably 3.5-4 GB of data transfer a month.
Thankfully TuneIn FCs a lot
Yea man they bone you pretty hard after you go past 5gb. I went from 4g to edge smh, I am aboit to calk and complain. I am pretty sure there was a way to get passed it on the vibrant, after things get settled for the galaxy s 4g I'm sure we will be able to do the same.
I thought it was 10gb?

Yeah I thought it was 10gb too but once I passed 5gb they sent me a message and throttled my speed to edge speeds.

Thats not worth it. Every carrier has a cap even if they advertise that they don't. I've read on the internet that on sprint people get throttled and maybe even get their accounts canceled going over a certain limit. I think tmobile's is the best option right now.

Thats wrong, Sprint is the only carrier with true unlimited. Although there data speeds are the worst of the big four. I barely got 1mbs on 3G and around 4mbs on 4G. When i could get a signal, witch sucks cause i live in KC. Sprints headquaters is here, I could no longer take the slow speeds and went back to tmo where i have 4G everywhere I go. Usually around 8mbs and i have 3G around 5mbs.

The war of words and facts continues with sprint preparing a new TV ad -- more of a campaign -- where CEO Dan Hesse goes on camera and defines the word "unlimited" and what concepts it is not compatible with.
These incompatible terms are "metering, overage, or throttling, which is code for slowing you down", Hesse says while Bill Morgan, sprint senior vice president-Corporate Marketing agrees that some of Sprint's competitors are creating confusion in their customer's minds by referencing "unlimited" plans which are not unlimited in reality.

Your prices are locked in as long as you stay with them. The prices may get even better now that together that will be bigger than Verizon and start trying to beat eachothers prices. Not to mention with any luck better service area. Still not that excited to see them merge.

When throttled there is an obvious note on the account on their end that the phone has been throttled.
What department did you speak with, and what is your current data usage
4.2 gb of data used and i spoke to data support. Cycle ends on the 20th.
My speed using the new apn. Its not a big deal because im not in a LTE area yet but its just the principle of it.
Same thing is happening to me right now. Only used 1.8gb of data and I'm getting 0.05-0.1 speed. I called AT&T and they told me that I'm not throttled, my cycle ends on the 18th. I don't know wtf is wrong with AT&T but I'm sick and tired of the crap they're pulling. I won't be surprised if they start throttling unlimited data users around 1-2GB. I guess I'll be using my monthly 4G T-Mobile sim for now.
So your saying they credited you the price of the data plan for getting throttled?
Now I'm seriously tempted to go try this, even though I'm not throttled, because I really love screwing AT&T.
They credited me for $36 to be exact. They're the ones who stated that i shouldn't be throttled, so why should i pay for service that isn't working. Everytime they screw up, they should credit your account. People who let them slide are crazy.

When you get throttled on AT&T 3G, it's like the same speeds as Sprint's WiMax.

The exact same thing happened to me. I called and they said I wasn't throttled but I was getting .18 d/l but 1.10mb u/l. I changed the apn to get my speeds back and the last day of my billing cycle I changed it back to the pta apn. I never got a 5% warning but got some weird message about my account but it never warned me about my data.

I usually just use the skyrocket to do a quick login and do what I need to do. Since AT&T is throttling for no reason now, i'm gonna tether my laptop for work off my skyrocket. I usually would never do that but they clearly are throttling me and not admitting it.
Same here. I called ATT cs and actually got to tier 3 support they said I was not Throttled. But admitted that there had been several reports. They suggested I use an Alternate APN (that was a suprise). I was already using the "phone" APN hack that is discussed in another thread. It is hard to tell the BS from the truth with them. They said they would get back to me, but I am not holding my breath. Hope my alternate APN keeps working. BTW I am not in a LTE market.

They already are. I hit 2,000 MB smack dab on, and throttled instantly.
AT&T offered to exchange my phone - without admitting that i was throttled.
the only way i could confirm i was throttled was:
1) my speeds (lol)
2) if i log into www.att.com/wireless and look at recent data usage, my "2041 mb of unlimited" is in RED - and normally its in green
im at 40gb now after 3 days of being throttled (few tricks, hspa, phone apn, then lots of netflix etc)
wonder if i can push 100gb this month
Very interesting indeed. They claimed yesterday that there has been no change in policy. Users will continue to be notified and unless the user is speaking to the wrong person, there is no reason one would be told they are not throttled when they are.

First off: !!!!
OK, there has GOT to be some sort of way around this, or at least a way to delay this from happening to one's self for a bit....
A) What about going out now and purchasing a new LTE device at full retail ahead of your upgrade date (mine is this November)? Will that grant me an extra 2 yrs of unlimited data before I am forced off?
B) And what's this I hear about buying phones directly thru the Play Store and going month-to-month with Vzw? I was hearing you will soon be able to do this and retain unlimited data this way?
There's gotta be a way....I will NOT go to shi**y At&t or Sprint or TMobile......
How many people really use 4 gigs a month? Thats what i have cox hispeed at home for. I know between cox, vzw, and sirius for car and phone, its expensive, but i have everything i need whenever and wherever i need. I know this sucks for those who abuse it, but shouldnt all around network quality be better if it is limited? Ive been unlimited since the alltel days, im not happy, but the only time i tether is once a week when at my hotel, just to have a secure connection. I can shop around next time, but as much as i travel and work in the sticks, verizon is my best option.

Some of us like myself don't have the luxury of high speed internet at home. I use a lot data because my phone is my internet connection. I don't use most of my data on 4G though because I only get it at my house and I disable it when I'm working because I'm at locations that dont have it so it eats my battery up. They won't keep it like this forever anyway. I remember when 3g came out and they charged people for data pretty much until the whole network was 3g and then by allowed it to be unlimited. Anyhow I don't really see Verizon keeping this up forever. I bet they will lose a lot of customers over this move. If they won't renew my unlimited plan I'm gone.

But the phone as the internet connection is the problem. Thats not what it was meant for. People playing ps3 or xbox, streaming netflix, torrent downloads. Everyone who is abusing it is why its making them go this route. There is free wifi almost everywhere. People can sign up for home internet service. If your a college student, the activity center will have wifi. I hate paying $54 a month for internet at my home, but i also get up to 50 meg dl, i run all laptops, printers, and all cell phones connect as soon as its in range. If people want to leave for a more crappy network to abuse, let them. The tethering is a big reason phones are getting harder to unlock. The only unlimited in our area is sprint, but they suck outside of big cities. If forcing limits on everyone makes the network better, ill adjust to it, as i always have.

Well, seeing as how there's nothing groundbreaking that any of the new phones can do that the Thunderbolt can't already do, I'll be using my Thunderbolt until rubber bands and epoxy can't hold it together anymore. I got mine on launch day, and other than the kickstand losing a bit of its finish, the rest of the phone is in perfect condition.
Wife is bummed about not being able to get an iphone5 once it comes out, but maybe after this fails badly for Verizon, and/or there's a big class action lawsuit, and they finally kick in the auxillary retro thrusters, I'll consider getting a new phone then. Sprint LTE is still going to suck because they're still using 1900mhz that doesn't do good building penetration, thats the reason Wimax failed.
I left sprint where I had 25% off monthly for big red.

I only tether mine when my wife needs to do something for work which is maybe twice a month. Even without tethering I still use 5 gb on a low month. Lots of Pandora and with a 2 year old netflix is a must for long trips, or even when waiting at the doctor or when waiting at a restraunt. If they kill unlimited for me I will either change carriers or go to a feature phone. I love my bolt, but I can move vids to my tablet for my kid and bring my zune back out for music. I'm old enough to remember life before the internet much less mobile anything, and smart enough to not get raped by big red because they want more money. Unfortunately some people are so attached to being connected 24/7 they will pay whatever to keep that data going.

Question: looking at leaving ATT to cut down on expenses. Straight talk and T- mobile both have deals where you can being your own phone and just switch Sims. Since I'm running Scott's CM 10 (12/29), figuring their requirement to have the phone unlocked is not an issue. I noticed that T- mobile has a limit then it's throttled. Straight talk doesn't seem to have a cap or throttle point. Anyone out there can give me their experience with straight talk? Thank you for any advice/wisdom/warnings.

When throttled, I know that downloading a new ROM may take forever, but would I still be able to do any radio streaming? Even low quality?

Yes Straight Talk will throttle you. When I first got straight talk I used 5+ gigs in first month without being throttled, but 2 weeks into the second month and about 2 gigs used I got a friendly call from them and was throttled. Severely throttled as close to no data as possible. To use that much data I was setting up computers at a friends house that did not have internet.
I have had straight talk over a year now, and that is the only time I have bee throttled. I have went over 2 gigs in some of those months. ,

I use the att sim from St and have for about 4 months now. Last month I was downloading Rom updates at work which add up quick but stayed under 1.5 Gb total for the month and my speed was slowed to 0.23mbs where I was getting around 5-7mbs. I never got a call or text about it but when my next month stated again it seemed speed was back to normal. I do like the Service tho as it is the same as att and half the price

So, from what I've heard so far, straight talk uses ATT towers, so reception should be the same. Data usage should not be a problem, as long as I don't tether. The throttling does go down to a crawl, but some people don't see a definable amount that it starts at. At least one person noted that they called and got speed back up. Overall, not to bad I take it.

I've been using Straight Talk since October and love it but I'm not a huge user of data on my phone or my tablet. I did use my phone as a hotspot over Christmas while at my grandmothers house in the backwoods of Kentucky and not only had service but internet for my laptop and Toshiba Thrive tablet. I must say I was impressed! :victory:
LOL I wouldn't abuse it to much they cut me off completely within 10 days lol funny when I'm home I'm on WiFi anyways I'm switching after this month getting a new phone I'm over the throttle and complete shut off.I will keep the infuse though its a bad a$$ phone for sure.
