Blackberry 10 owners how do you cope with excess data drain in your phone.Data you can normally use for one week on a good old symbian phone can easily be wiped out in few minutes in a blackberry 10 device.I sold my blackberry 10 phone because of this even though I like the phone a lot.

It all boils down to management of your data.

Dude, Droids are worse. Plus the op shouldn't compare a Symbian fone with a BlackBerry OS10 fone; they are world's apart.

Sorry I'm late but how do you manage data on that device.Can you give us practical illustration e.g in android you have to switch off auto sync,auto backup,background apps etc.

for example in my android device Tecno L 3, I use mobiwol to restrict background app, I use opera mini and most times I don't allow images to be displayed except when it is absolutely necessary. Use the mobiwol, I allow which application that can use the network for example whatsapp and opera mini during the day because charging rate on data especially airtel bis is expensive and other application during the night e.g facebook apk(wen necessary cos I use opera for facebook). For a rooted phone, I use droid wall. Bear in mind that android operating system doesn't compress data like blackberry O.S below 7.subscribe to glo bis costing N1000 for your Q5 n above since the data cap is higher.

Vodacom thanks for the head up but I understand that Mobiwol you mentioned can restrict android apps but I don't think it can restrict the data hungry blackberry 10 Operating System and its corresponding apps which are the main culprits.Glo is a frustration in my area so its a waste of time to subscribe to their BIS.
