Any help with rooting? Been trying to do it with my Nexus S, but it's super complicated. It's especially annoying considering I wanted to mod Widgetlocker.

Hey guys, just picked up my Android device about a week ago and it came with a 3gb FUP.

I've been looking at my unbilled use on the My T-Mobile site and for some reason there seems to be random charges under "Mobile Data Usage". For most of the items there is a base cost, but then a billed cost of 0. But every once in a while the base cost doesn't seem to be "waived", so to say.

I haven't been out of the UK (or Scotland for that matter) since getting the phone.

Under mobile network settings I have already unchecked Data roaming. T-Mobile Internet is selected as my access point.

Where are these charges coming from and how can I stop them? :frown: It adds up to about 5 pounds now.. it's not too bad but it'll add up if I don't put a stop to this now :s-smilie:


Might want to ring them up about that.

Meh, not too bad I guess. I get marginally more on my iPhone, but I charge than when I get home every day anyway. How does it perform? Does Flash work well?


Performance -

-Very snappy
-Apps open very quickly, I can't remember the last time I had to wait to do anything.
-Have a huge numer of apps running at the same time due to the 800mb of RAM, I seem to always have 100mb+ available.
-Smooth scrolling across homescreens and across OS though not as buttery smooth as on window phone 7
-Doesn't lag in games at all due to adreno 205

Flash

-Great to be able to stream of sites, e.g I stream Bloomberg
-Sometime it can lag if you don't have a good connection, when on wifi it's great
-Normal websites with flash banners and everything it's still quick
-On youtube as long as you don't watch 1080p videos it doesn't lag

I guess so. A dual core phone would probably be worth waiting for.
