Hi,
I need program like spb wireless monitor on my htc hd2 running android, i tried netcounter but i'm not satisfied because it only shows total MB usage it doesn't show what program use what amount of data like spb wireless monitor do... so my question is, is there any program like spb for android???
thanks for your help and offeres...
P.S it doesn't matter if it is not free program ... just urgently i need it...
hey,
been looking for the same thing since switching to android, the closest you're going to get is 'traffic counter pro' or '3g watchdog pro'
both offer free & paid, tho the data per application feature is wildly inaccurate on both apps.

also i have found trafficstats lite... so there is hope that one day we will have something accurate like spb wireless monitor maybe spb itelf will create ...
Since a few days (Weeks?) there is a SPB wireless monitor for Android!
Just check the market and search for SPB.

Traffic counter free version works well. It has log of each app's data connection.

yeh, i bought it a few days ago, app data is a lot more accurate that other apps, but still not as close as it was in wm6.5, all it needs now is a smaller theme-able widget

i agree, its a good app, still use it as a general counter but the sum of the app data (mb), is never equal to the total, not even close. often say an app has use xxxkb when i know its used xxmb

Can anybody recommend an app to monitor my data connection ?
Similar to SPB Wireless on WM.
Any help really appreciated.

I got a widget off the market called data counter, simple front end that sits on my home screen with lots of stats and options in the background, works good for me

NetCounter is also a good one, free on the market.

Doesn't work for Wifi on mine, and the cell counter is WELL out as well. I've been downloading quite a bit via 3G over the last week, and it reckons I've only downloaded 1.24MB...
+1 for 3G watchdog - does what it says on the tin. Very pleased with it...
I just tried the "3G Watchdog", but I cannot see any option to "disable" it.
Once I activated by setting it, I saw the icon ets ... but I cannot de-activate / disable / turn it OFF.

Only way I know of to do it is to close it under running services and then open the app again next time you are going to use mobile data.
I just keep it on as I keep my phone on mobile data unless I need to browse the web at home as the wifi is crap for notifications, they hardly seem to work when the screens locked on wifi.
3G watchdog is great!

Hi
Is there any app that can be used as monitoring the data usage of each application?
On example how many kb using mail app, google talk, google maps etc...
So, per application data usage
Thank you
There was a thread asking the same question a while back and it seems the answer is no
I'd post a link but I'm still a newbie
I would like such a app myself - but as a workaround you can dial *#*#4636#*#* , click "battery protocol" (or something like that, my phone is in german...), in the first dropdown "network usage" and then click on the apps and it will tell you how many bytes the program sent/received.
Nice one, that let me see what it was that was using up so much data.
i have an ap called 1013 in this list, but when I click it, I get an error..
does anybody know what this could be?
because its bar is completely filled!!
there's also a bar for media, thats quite high, any ideas what this could be?
because I haven't used any music photo or movie app since I've stopped charging..
3G Watchdog can help
i have been use it for a month... so far so good

Or use the Spare Parts app which essentially does this but in a more user friendly way
I've been using software called Network Statistics. It does exactly what your asking but with a few quirks. It doesn't differentiate WiFi from mobile data so I had to reset the counter when switching from one to the other. The only way I've found to reset the counter is to pull out the battery.
That said, it helped me pinpoint fairly quickly what background app was ripping through my data allowance (foursquare).
It seems the author no longer supports it, but it's still available for 50p. http://www.appstorehq.com/networkstatistics-android-174793/app/buy

This seems to be able to monitor battery and CPU by app but not network use by app? Or am I missing that somewhere?

I just discovered : TrafficStats
http: androidapplications.com/105333-network-trafficstats-lite
It does the trick for me,
/barfly...
I've been searching for similar apps as well (light weight)
Found another option...
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.ir.apptrafficfree
Seems to use built in data monitored by the os, for ver 2.2 onwards only though.
Cheers

You need root for: eNETraffic
For what I can tell it only records 3G traffic
And it has the option to block internet access per application only on 3G (when on WiFi everyone allowed, on 3G some blocked)
Dan.
I use 'My Data Manager', it shows usaage by app and also by 3g and Wifi and has several months of data backed up.
There's a free version with ads and a paid one without.
See:
http://bit.ly/s86P3V
Or just falsh one of ICS roms. They've built in data usage monitor with limits, monitoring for each app and other cool stuff.
eNETraffic has new update that includes wifi. Works great. Do need root.

I use an app called Onavo, its really easy to set up and use!
Find it on Android Market, I tried posting a link but keep getting denied. =/

Here is the link.
Onavo is a good app indeed. Clean look and feel and very useful!
Can someone point me in the direction of an app that will tell me how many minutes and messages I use in a given month? Ideally one that works like 3G Watchdog with a small widget giving me the information at a glance. Thanks in advance.

Call Meter NG? No widget.
Cheers, I'll have a look. A widget would be really useful though.

Droidstats is good
Hi,
try Droidstats, really nice UI, it calibrates after the first months bill. 99% Accurate, i checked today and it was 1 min and 1 text out
if youre on orange why dont you just install the your orange app from the market it works great for me even allows you to change magic numbers and gives data usage aswell

Freewidget. Works for me

Yeah, great UI! Thanks for sharing. I was using Call Meter NG which has no widget...
I use a widget called Tariff Watcher Widget - you can set what your free minutes/texts are each month and when the billing cycle starts and it shows a usage bar and number
I also use Data Watcher Widget to watch Data/Wifi and Roaming data usage - tapping it brings up some little icons that can be used to turn Wi-Fi on/off, get to Wireless and networks settings and seettings for the app
Unfortunately being a new user I can't post the app brain links :S
I use "phonalyzr" try it
I know there are threads on tasker, but i have to say, this is one sick app.
all you have to do is send sms with secret word from any phone and Tasker will enable wifi, gps, and send back a link to google maps with phone location.
That is amazing, but...
Pity the GPS, Compass and Google Maps implementation is completely ****ing broken!
I would definitely love to use this when (or if) the locational services ever do function. Thanks for the heads up -- I had no idea this existed.
There are multiple apps like "Where's my droid" that do this as well.

Maybe, but tasker does thousand other things. For me gps works fine, but there is a problem with compass

And doesn't 'where is my droid' only rings the phone if u send sms ?
If its not too long, would you mind posting your contexts and tasks to achieve just that exact same you just described? I'm trying to get better with the program although at a very slow pace
Thanks a lot mate!

Yeah i was interested in how you did it as well. I am just learning this tasker app and it doesnt seem that you can import and export tasks easily.

you can find it here: http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index
the guy is using GPS only, but its pretty straight forward to include WIFI in this as well (WIFI is for better location without GPS). The time to wait for GPS to get a lock is up to you, I have 1 min.
and as you can see there is a profile there if you wish to lock you phone with SMS and/or play sound. (havent tried that)
For now I have these tasks: 1. If power ON, screen timeout is set to 45 sec (from 15), and lockguard is disabled 2. from 7:30pm to 8am screen brightness set to min and to AUTO other times. 3 Created a widget for "Vibrate" and "Bluetooth" since Vibrant is missing easy access to those functions (in a nice menu widget to save space). 4. I have several tasks killed at boot since they are useless anyway. (for this need to insert WAIT command with whatever time needed since some tasks start after the phone boots)
Thanks a lot for that link! Was able to create my own widget too now!

Read that Lookout drains battery, one of the features of Tasker is to actually save battery.

Hey,
I was wondering if theres an APP or default setting that allows me to view the internet usage used. E.g. How many MB used in total.
Post the name or setting of the APP. Thanks.
yes, droid stats, does your minutes texts and data useage
or Call Meter NG (free with adds on market)
3G Watchdog is the most famous.
+1 for this one, i only watch your 3G usage. I'm still looking for a decent Call and Messaging monitoring app.

And that's the FREE version too
