When I originally activated my phone, the billing cycle was the 16th of the month to the 15th of the next month. I've since changed accounts and now my cycle is the 26th to 25th.
How can I change the range used?
Hey not exactly sure if you mean this but go to settings>data usage>data usage cycle.
Hope it is what you want to know
Tap the dates in 'Data usage' next to 'Data usage cycle'.
Set it to the first date of your cycle.

Just in case others get here from googling as I did. The way to fix the change date issue is making sure you have data enabled and WiFi off. At least that how I finally had access to change the cycle.
So go into settings make sure WiFi is off and then go to data usage and select data cycle dates and it should drop down under the dates and with a change data cycle.

hey guys,
I got some issues with data usage, cycle, and graphs. i was wondering if anyone knows the answers to these questions of course without using another app or rom's data usage.
1) I was wondering if we can set the white lines to show the billing cycle (1 month) by default instead of the last 7 days only? I have to scroll back everytime to check.
2) my data usage reset on me a couple of times without me doing anything. Im not sure whats causing that, but i do have a theory that there is a "lag" of when you set your cycle and when the resets happen.
So if you initially have set on the 15th, then you change to the 1st.
And if its the 13th today. I think there is a reset on the 15th, then it goes to your new billing cycle.
This is just a theory, im not 100% sure. Can someone verify this?
If this is true, how can i make it instant instead of the delay?
Ive always found the stock data counter unreliable. Plus flashing and messing around info gets lost. I found 3g watchdog worked the best, it saves all your info when you backup(titanium or whatever). If data counting is something you need, definitely get that. It can be complicated looking at first but once you figure it out, flawless. Plus out of all the apps I've tested, it was the most accurate.

I have created a Data Widget to keep track of my Data Usage over the course of my Billing Cycle. The icon will also change to green when WiFi is off (3G is On). Tapping on the progress bar will lead you to Settings/Data Usage and the 3g icon will bring up WiFi options.
I got the template from MartinatorX here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44295552
My billing cycle ends on the 4th and starts on the 5th.
For the progress bar Min/Max Values, I have:
Min: 0
Value:$((NTMTHM5#/2500)*100)$
Max: 100
For The Advanced Parameters, I have:
[cf]$((#NTMTHM5#/2500)*100)>90?#6eff3535:#6effffff$[/cf]
I figured since today is the 5th (first day of my billing cycle), the widget would reset to 0. Instead, I see what is pictured in the attached thumb. I'm not sure what I've left out..

I use #NTMTMM15# for the monthly data totals and it resets correctly on the 6th of every month.

My problem turned out to be b/c I was using #NTMTHM5# instead of #NTMTMM5#. Worked perfectly till today, then it reset again. Not sure why.
Edit: The reason why the Data reset to 0 was b/c I cleared Zooper's Cache. Luckily, I remembered how many MBs of Data I used before I cleared the cache (1147mb). So I changed
$((#NTMTMM5#/2500)*100)$
to
$(((#NTMTMM5#+1147)/2500)*100)$
and saved it as a different widget. I also set a reminder on the calender to change the widget back to the original on the 5th.
My plan starts on the 22nd each month, and I use this setting to track network data: #NTMTHM22#
Its been working properly for a long time but recently seems to show only the current days usage. I've tried other pre-built network codes in the widget and they all show the same value, except for "last week" which shows a different value. This seems to have started in the last couple of weeks although I can't think of a change that might have done this.
Any ideas?
Hi, I'm trying to create a widget/progress bar to show weekly cellular data usage. The built-in fields can give me my Monthly data usage just fine, by using #NTMTHM29# which resets on the 29th of each month. However, I'm going to be moving to a weekly data plan and I'd like to know how I could monitor my weekly data usage. I can see that there is an option to display "Cellular data usage current week" which I assume will reset every Monday, but if my data plan starts say, on a Thursday, how could I cover this?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Sorry - this is in the wrong section (and I can't move it!)

OK, I've managed to suss this out. As usual it's quite simple
For anyone who's interested, this is what I've done.....
7 rich text modules (one for each day of the week)
Let's say your weekly data allowance starts every Thursday....
Your 'Thursday' module would be:
$#DE#=Thu?#NTMTH1#$
This is saying "If today is Thursday, show me today's cellular data usage."
Your 'Friday' module would be:
$#DE#=Fri?#NTMTH2#$
Which says "If today is Friday, then show me the last 2 days' worth of data usage."
and so on, until you get to Wednesday which will show the last 7 days. Then the whole process starts again on Thursday and the data usage starts again.
There will only ever be one module that displays, as only one has met its' condition (i.e. the day of the week), all the others will show nothing. Works perfectly.
Dead easy to put into a progress bar too for a visual indicator.
