zerojay and niolajendel...thanks for the help

New version 0.6-3 in extras-devel

This version fixed the data counter problem introduced in PR1.2. There are now two data counters (home and roaming) that can be toggled between by pressing the applet. Or you can configure the applet to show the combined totals. It would be better if there was an indicator of which data counter you were currently veiwing - that will be an update for the next verison.

since i can post on in there even when i have registered

ill ask here
how do i set up alarmed to reset this every 30 days...?
is there a cmd i can use to reset the data usage

Does anyone know where I can find the dep file for this latest version I'm having problems refreshing my app manager.

Any help or links would be great, thanks
Chris

is there a similar program, but the downloaded data collected by the wireless network?

just a helpful post as i found it hard to find how to and alot of others do 2 maybe a post on the first post wuold b nice

-------
to set the counter to auto reset at a particular date use alarmed with its inbuilt feature
-------

and is there any chance auto reset getting built into the app?

i have free youtube, facebook, twitter, myspace on my plan could it be possible to add a "free section" where u could set certain addresses or predefined titles in the program to be set to the free area so it isn't tallied up in the main counter?
eg.
and the ability to change colour depending on your set limits eg green: is still lots left
yellow: getting close to limit
red: over limit

I've made a german translation for this needy app.
But why it doesn't work on the phone.

I used 'PoEdit' with your de.po file included in the source,
translated it and moved thecreated 'personal-gprs-mon.mo' to
/home/usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES
but the widget still remains in english language.

Any hint to get it translated properly not using some hexediting?

For some reason my widget keeps resetting when it gets to 4.25gigs of transfer. I am only at 8.68gig for the month according to counter in the Settings>Phone, but the widget only says 86MB after a second reset since the beginning of the month. Anyone know why it is resetting and how i can get it to stop?

To me that looks like a buffer overflow.
4 GB are a lot and it might be that the used variable is too small for that.


And here the question I have:
Is there a way to get a n alarm when I reach the limit of my data plan?
Lets say I have 250MB for free, and then it gets expensive.
It would be great to have a warning at 200 MB and an alarm at 240MB, of course it would have to be configurable.
I am not sure if it is possible with this widget, maybe it more should be a daemon which checks every minute. Or maybe it exists already but I could not find anything.

For those requesting an alarm or some notification to alert you when you are near your limit:

Go to Settings> Phone> Network> Home Network Data
and tick "Enable Transfer Warning". Here you can enter the MB's that you want a warning to be displayed for.
