Will i get charged for having the weather displayed on the main screen?

The weather updates so it will use your data connection.

Ok thanks, And could the HTC Wildfire use data without you knowing?

you can disable it, and update the weather data when you get wifi connection.

 

[Juddanator]

Ok thanks, and also can you disable your phone from connecting to the internet by itself, and only connect when you want it to??

You have 2 options: go to settings>accounts and sync and untick the background data and auto-sync boxes or hold down the power button and turn off internet entirely.

So with the first option can i still use the browser?

 

[Zaichik]

Yes.

With option 1, you need to bear in mind that some aps (like mail and the market) have their own autosync options, which will need to be turned off manually.

And if i did that i shouldn't expect to get charged for any data?
