Data counter

What's the best data monitor out there?

I'm using onavo at the mo but I'm not sure how accurate it is.

How does it compare to 3gwatchdog?

3G Watchdog is pretty accurate, when comparing my usage with that against what my carrier says at the end of the month, it's only a couple of MB out.

I might try that.

My monitor says I've used 4mb and I haven't touched Facebook or browser yet

Your Android might be polling or syncing. It would be normal for it to use up somewhere between 3-10mb on a normal day if you don't touch it. More if its new and is just about to sync the data.

My phone is literally brand new. 2 days old.

So it using a few mb a day in idle is normal?
