Email App using 1.8gb?!!

[TheMACHINE]

I was on the phone with Verizon for about 30 mins and they can't figure out what happened. in one day, my data went from 75% to 90% usage. I checked and it all came from "background data" using an EMAIL app. wth!!!!!!!!

Anyone know why it was us 1.71gb in 24 hours?!

[TheMACHINE]

gmail...in my data log...it showed something using 400mb at 8:26am. I was driving to work at that time. WTH!?!

[lefty]

I meant


Did you look it up on Google?

[TheMACHINE]

yes..cant find anything about something as drastic as 2gb!!!

trying to see if it has anything to do with SYNC.

[lefty]

yeah check the sync frequency


Also, It may be the attachments downloads (often set to automatic by default)

[ElNono]

do you get movies by email? :lol

[TheMACHINE]

Nope..all I get is fb notification emails...which I now disabled. ..

But it was never a problem before!

Possible glitch? Maybe reinstall email app?

Also..I checked the data log...one time it used 400mb 4 mins after I left home which was when it disconnected from my wifi.

I would try uninstalling the email app and going 3rd party like K9 or aquamail. See if the problem persists.

I checked wifi usage. Email app used 14gb from Aug 29 to Sept 5. lol

LOL.

Trying going to properties on app, clear cache, clear data.

(And root MFer)

[TheMACHINE]

Hmmm..maybe its time to root. Haha

[lefty]

Lol TheMachine is not a man yet.

Your wife needs me tbh; I'm gonna root her Galaxy S3 and show her how a REAL MAN roots !


You're gonna get rootcucked

[TheMACHINE]

Haha fcker

[TheMACHINE]

ok..removing the email account stopped the issue. I find it crazy that it can use that much data. Anyways...now I have to decide whether to try it again using the same app or try a third party email app.
