As some have mentioned earlier a way to auto reset a certan date would be usefull. Also a log function wolg be good. Now to the big downside, the counter gets crasy after 2,somthing gigs and starts to count backwords. This is not good! I use 2-5gigs GPRS data every month.
A good app, it can be alot better with some improvment.
As already mentionned: great app, very usefull. Would love to have the automated reset each x day of the month at 00:00 and a history of past traffic.
hi all... to reset the counter: Settings => Phone => Data Counter => Click "Clear". Thx to the author for the nice app.
Very good and also important app. I'd like to find a similar app for counting the number of messages sent and the minutes of outcome calls.
Good idea, great app for those of us with restrictive dataplans. To echo others' requests - a scheduled reset would make it 5 stars.
Great app! Configurable automatic reset would would add one more star :)
Really handy app. Along with everyone else I would love to see the following if at all possible please? :- * Reset on the desktop settings for the widget. * Auto reset so you can synch the reset to your service providers data plan or another user selectable interval (daily/weekly/monthly @ a time of day) * Accessible log file / usage history.
Thanks very much for creating it.

i like the app but like its been said before it could do with automatic monthly reset.
cheers, joe
Really great APP.
What would be great :
To reset the counter :
Launch "Settings". Tap "Phone". Scroll down to "Data counter". Tap "Data counter". Tap "Reset".
Found the reset in the telephone settings. Good app. Pse add automatic reset every month, week or so...
I really need an automatic reset feature, with selectable reset time (e.g every day at midnight, or every week on Monday)
I second that.
Good widget, but the download counter overflows to negative after 2^31 bytes (2 gigs).

great application - can't find Reset despite comments on here that it's in the control panel. also on my wish list is an auto-reset on xx day of the month (user sets this date) and adds to a history log.

One of the most useful desktop widget available currently.
Works wonderfully, would also just like to see reset ability from the widget, and perhaps also save a history of past usage in between each reset might be useful.
A real useful widget, especially since my mobile phone company does not offer a way to see how much data you've spent unless you call the service center or check the bill at the end of the month.
How do you Reset the counter? There's nothing inside settings for the widget... Would be great if it could reset on the 1st of the month to 0.
Nice and usefull app, but I found a little bug. When your data volume exceeds 2GB you get an overflow and suddenly have a negative Number. Cheers
This information is available somewhere deep inside the control panel. It's really convenient to have it on the desktop.
Note: it took me a while to realize that some of these applets have a "settings" dialog. This one has two display modes (full/compact) and the "Reset" command. Slick.
Perfect app for being sure that you'll not pay 10€ for the pressing of a wrong button! It works nicely for me!
What I can say, it does well exactly what it promises while looking good.
exactly what i need, i have 1GB limitation on my contract. now i can easy see on my desktop how many bytes i have left. great, thank you :D
whow, i was thinking about writing an app to do this. 100/10
Ido: 1) that is a bug in the current firmware. I believe it has been filed and addressed, so hopefully it will be fixed soon in firmware available to us.
2) Currently you need to reset through the control panel. I plan on adding an option to either a) reset it through P-D-M or b) open the appropriate dialog through P-D-M
Thanks
Love the application.
Two comments though; (1) Sometimes values seem to spontaneously reset without changing: Last Reset. So how guaranteed are we of valid results in the widget ? (2) Last Reset date is shown, but there seems to be no way of actually resetting it.
Noodled down 1.3 GB, so far. Works nicely. No complaints.
You must be logged in to make comments.
just filed a bug https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9875 or let's say a feature request to implement a user selectable offset.
could be useful you travel abroad and you have to change the SIM or for any other reason why the counter could get out of sync with the real traffic. home it was the right place to place the request.
