Google+ ate up over a gig of data in the last day. I disabled the app, but you can see in the data usage pic that it used 1.63 (removed app). I rarely ever use G+ and I don't sync anything.
Any ideas why this happened. I got a data all alert yesterday saying 65% was used, and another this am saying 90% had been used which was all G+!!!

Maybe it was auto-uploading photos?

Actually had that on off also. That's the first thing I checked. When I use that feature I have Wi-Fi only since I pay for data

That to me looks most likely some setting and ROM issue. Make a backup flash another ROM try how it goes but am pretty sure Any other ROM shouldn't drain this much. Don't want to judge any ROM or anything just trying to help.
What battery model is it? Some of the extended batteries going around are just regular cells in a fat case with shims, especially the cheaper ones.

Google Store stalls on "Loading "

Hi people.
I am experiencing the following problems (screenshots below)
It starts like showing the "Loading" message for a lot of time:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then it Changes to something like this:
Obviously I can not connect...
I tried to delete the cache of every google app (gmail etc) but my credentials come again.....
In my other androids it works OK so I dont think it's Google servers.
Any ideas?

I even removed all google accounts and tried to log in again
It give a message:
"Can't establish a reliable connection to the server.
This could be a temporary problem or your android device may not be provisioned for data services."
Any ideas people?
I performed a factory reset and the problem still goes
I am wondering why
I suspect this is a Google problem and not mine.....
Even though so many have this problem, NOBODY in the internet manged to give a solution.......
It is so dark.....
I am pissed off because of the time I have spend on this **** .... one whole day and still on....
Look at this guys...

Can someone make sense of my data usage?

So I after a long time saw what apps were consuming data on my phone and its rather disturbing what I saw. This is one month's figures.

Why on earth is talkback using that much data when I dont even have the service enabled??
Next up is nova launcher prime. I did grant it permission to collect data but that much in just a month??
Next up is beautiful widgets, again why on earth does a weather app need to use that much data??
Next up is clean master, I dont even use it that much so how could it be using that much data?
The last one is actually the most shocking one "MultiTouch tester" app because I havent even opened that app in like months.
Is it really normal for apps that gather data to do it that much in a month? Not only does it seem a problem with privacy but also with battery life under wifi. Remember all of these apps have many downloads and great ratings on the play store so its not a case of them being shoddy apps.
What is your opinion on all this?

Wakelocks?

My battery life is pretty abysmal, are the numbers next to the app the number of times it woke the phone? If so why is play music waking it do much?

I think that means the time of running.. you can freeze it via titanium back up for good or unfreeze it when you wanna use it again
HTC ONE M8?
Looks pretty good too me. If you aren't using play music, then I'd freeze it. The amount of times it wakes the phone doesn't really matter. The time awake is what matters. Unlock with Wi-Fi woke your phone 892 times but that only equalled 12 seconds. My problem is nlp wakelocks which wakes my phone thousands of times totaling 30+ minutes sometimes. It's very annoying and has something to do with location services. No matter what I find that fixes it, Google updates play services and the hunt for a new fix behind. If you don't have Google services holding your phone awake, life is good lol

Mobile data always active

Hidden away, in Developer options, is an option to keep mobile data always active. Even when wifi is active, for fast network switching. I assume that we want this enabled? Just curious.

I've had it on for awhile now, on different phones and from I've noticed it's for fast Network switching. Never had an issue with it being on all the time. Orero and earlier had an option for wifi being aggressive in handing over to carrier data when wifi was poor. Don't see it in pie now. I would have that option as well as the option in for mobile data always active
