    Default wtf iphone4

    k need to know if all iphone4s are pigs or just mine. Basically i checked a few forums and watched about 2 hours of youtube videos(really bored). and then my dad complains that someone downloaded 10 gbs of bandwidth.

    i was the only one on the internet. so wtf is my iphone a whore and kills my bandwidth or are all iphones like this? since i know for sure it wouldnt have been past 2gb if i was on a pc.


    edit: think i figured it out check post 19

    I couldnt have been your phone if you just did that. Since I got my 3G in '08, between usage and a bit of tethering, I've only used 10.1 GB...

    You sure you didn't leave a P2P client running or something?

    Unless you're downloading, purposely, tons of stuff...I can't see your phone doing that. That's a lot of bandwidth. Youtube everyday certainly won't add up to that amount.

    10gb is um excessive. even bittorrent on your phone probably cant do that easily
    60% of the time, it works every time.

    If you got the unlocked version since you are in canada then you can get a nice price on that.

    There is no way you used 10 gigs in two hours of forums and youtube on your iphone. Also a pc would not use anywhere close to 2 gigs in a two hour time span doing the same stuff.

    I am willing to bet you have gigabytes and megabytes mixed up with each other

    So this is your wifi or your cell data? If it is your home ISP then might wanna check to see if someone is stealing wifi from you.

    It's not your phone. That's no doubt. I say your computer is part of a botnet!

    i think it was my phone.

    i downloaded a sc2 video. it was 900mb 1080p and 450mb 720p.
    i watched a few of those games. but seriously 450mb for a 20min video..? there should be a choice if u want to watch in full hd or not. for all i know it could be playing in 1080p
