Public wifi(such in cafes & university campus) are free to use.

Perhaps your phone connected to 3G instead of WiFi?
Did you try asking for explanation from your service provider?

AFAIK N900 doesn't support USSD numbers...BUT there is a workaround of it...namely USSD widgets and dialer...try search around on talk.maemo.org and the repository

Hmm...what about email fetching?...Hve u set up it too? hmm.gif
The oni explaination that i can think of is something is downloading data in the background on ur N900
iIf im not mistaken there is a command that let u know recent data transmission on ur phone....sorry doesn't know the command as im not a pro in Linux...u hve to search around maemo forum for it though icon_rolleyes.gif

Did you really copy the image out from your N900 to your PC? Or you're editing the file which is still in your N900?

I don't have any problems? Maybe you can try other picture editing software like MS Paint, make an extra copy of the picture, open the picture in MS Paint and simply modify it and try to save?

2600 for ori????

which phone mag is that?

Gosh..it is so expensive... blink.gif

If it is above RM2500, i might give this phone a miss. After all, It was released in November 2008, and we're only getting it now. Almost 5 months (half a year later). And besides, Maemo 5 may become obsolete fast, with Intel and nokia merging to come out with the new OS Meego that will replace Maemo 5. Thne Maemo 5 will no longer have supports and updates? Coders will flock to Meego... blink.gif ....the First phone targeted by Nokia/ Intel to come out using Meego is in mid 2010,which is like only 3 months away...

Arghh...decisions decisions...i desperately need a phone now...and i had my eyes on the N900, but if the price is absurd... cry.gif should i wait again....

The N97 Mini ori price is about 2.4K anyway. It's either they plan to price it cheaper or more expensive...

How sure are you that your phone didn't automatically connect to 3G?

Go To Settings --> Internet Connections
Make sure the settings does not connect automatically for 3G Internet.

If there is automatic connection, you might not know when your phone updates automatically using 3G Internet.

If you install any widgets that have auto-update (default settings) and you didn't disable it, it will use the default connection. Even your email and so on does the same. Same goes for Nokia Maps.

Lastly, to check if your phone has used any Data Packets, go to:
Settings --> Phone --> Scroll Down to the end and choose "Data counter"
This will show you the total MB send and received.
Alternatively, you can also install the "Dataplan Monitor" widget.

Good Luck~

Sorry bro, didn't notice which message? Is it same as current you're asking?

If yes, bro kiawin has mentioned about the app "Petrovich" which allows you to send files via Bluetooth, Email, Service.

which means you have used data transfer of 85mb...
if you don't have unlimited data plan then multiply it with pay as you go charge per kb.

let say PAYU rate is 10 sen per 10kb, so 1mb= RM10...your total usage now is RM850 for data only laugh.gif
if you're on digi, they will capped for data charges once you reached RM149 amount of usage, after that it is free for the current month cycle.


Added on February 26, 2010, 12:11 pmfor me if you buy a smartphone like iphone, nexus one etc but do not subscribe to unlimited data plan it was like pointless buying the phone right??

those phones are designed as internet on the go type of phone...if you're on celcom or digi network...unlimited data plan is not that expensive..RM58/month for digi and rm68/month for celcom..

Yup, it's good news, more accessories and also support and parts from Nokia (for those who prefer to get from Ori store).

Now it's clear that your phone does indeed use data plan (e.g. 3G). Try to set your phone to not connect via 3G or data packets automatically. Even other N series like N81, N97, etc they have automatic connection to 3G or your network data usage, you have to disable it or choose "Always Ask" for these type of connection under the settings. That's why many people have "unknown" usage on the data.

When your wifi is not available or disconnected, and some apps/email/gps wants to update, it will automatically use the next available connection, which will be your network data (e.g. 3G) automatically unless you specify not to use it automatically.
Since your usage is so high, I suspect it's the email retrieval or downloading of apps. Or it can be some other things that is using your network data plan.

Tips:
1. Try connecting to WiFi and see the wifi connection icon beside the battery icon.
2. Try connecting to 3G and see the 3G connection icon beside the battery icon.
Both these are different icon, so it can somewhat help you identify which connection you're on.

If you're on Maxis, maybe you can consider subscribe to 500MB plan for 3G Internet which is RM58; or switch to DiGi for unlimited plan for the same price! woot!
For Maxis, just login to maxis.com.my, and you can activate immediately.

Lastly, to monitor you data plan easily, install the "Dataplan Monitor" widget and put in your desktop. You can see in real-time your data plan usage, and take action quickly if you suspect any changes. (find the culprit)
