i am using the n900 for 10 month now and there is a problem that i can not solve right now and i need any help that i can get from any one .

here is the thing . i live in egypt and u can not use more than 3MB on ur cell phone or u will have to pay for every 1 more mb u use 1 pound ... while the min cost 0.19 . it is not fair . and there is no wifi like in most of the country .
all i want is a way to see the facebook, and be able to chat with my msn contact with in the use of a 3mb/day .

Good luck. I had a similar problem in Moscow and for a while I was paying $100 a week for Internet access.

Maybe someone here has a way around this.

One solution is to install Personal Data Monitor. But this app doesn't limit your 2G/3G connection, it is just info widget.

Maybe such limit can be implemented in AutoDisconnect, contact its maintainer.

i already have Personal Data Monitor installed , and there is this option when u can have a warning be4 u hit the limit . that is not the problem the problem that is every thing that is usable on this device drain too much data for just checking the facebook

That's not the phone's fault. That's the website. Either way, your best bet is to install Opera Mobile and enable Opera Turbo in the settings pane. It compresses websites before sending them to the phone meaning less data used.

how about using facebrick? uses a lot less data as only downloads updates not full web pages.

or, try the mobile or touch sites.??

I use mobile sites when roaming off my carrier's data plan for this reason

Turn off all IM and VoIP, as well as MfE.

And remove widgets that update themselves.

Also very important to disable automatic updates check. It can use more than 3MB every day by itself.
