Using WiFi before 3G

[SusieQ228]

I currently have an unlimited data plan, but when it comes time to re-up, I'll be limited to 2GB per month.

When WiFi is enabled, will the phone and apps automatically use the WiFi or will some still use 3G? If the latter, any way I can change that setting, or, at least, find out which apps will default to 3G so that I can change them manually?

Thanks!

The apps will use whatever your phone is set too.

You can set your phone to use Wi-fi as preferred option when ever it is available.

How have you got your phone set-up now?

If WiFi is turned on and your phone is able to successfully authenticate to WiFi then it will use the wireless network. If WiFi is disabled on the phone or you are not able to authenticate to a WiFi network then it will use 3G.

Thank you, Martimus.

Clevo, I don't know. Whatever it is set to by default...

i have the charge with ep1w debloated firmware and can't get any wifi tether to work. I tried changing the channels, just about every configuration you can think of. Do you have a solution for this issue?
