Are you surfing on cell data? Cos it won't change while you're on wifi. It only monitors gprs.

If you are, you might want to check how often it's updating. Open the homescreen settings (little cog top right) and your widgets and shortcuts all get little Xs so you can delete any of them on top right. On the top left of data monitor is a tiny spanner. Click that ans check the monitor settings. Mine updates every 5 seconds.

yeah am on wifi! Oops!

Wonder is it possible to get a app that tells you your data usage over wifi. Would be handy for someone like me who's thinking of changing over to bill pay with a data plan. would like to see my monthly usage on wifi.

gives the number of bytes transferred over wifi in each direction since last boot. An enhancement would be:
Code:
date >> wifi.dat
/sbin/ifconfig wlan0 | grep bytes >> wifi.dat
(In a terminal window, of course.) Running this from time to time will keep a record of your wifi usage.
>> means append, > means overwrite.

The above commands could be put in a file. This would constitute an app of sorts.

Is there any app that resets the data counter automatically, as @jozeph asked more than a year ago?
