Help Page for NetSentry
The two main screens:
The Interface List:
This screen lists all active network interfaces. An interface is considered "active" if data has been transmitted over it. Therefore, your device might actually have even more network interfaces than listed in that view, but they're inactive.
The Interface Details Screen:
Selecting an entry from the list gives you detailed information about how much data has been transferred over that particular interface. In addition to that you can reset the data counters, specify a transmission limit for the interface, or schedule automatic resets for the data counters.
Miscellaneous information:
Updates:
When you open NetSentry all data counters will be updated. Automatic updates are scheduled on a regular basis. You can set the update interval using the preferences.
Notifications:
Notifications will pop up only during automatic updates. All notifications will be cleared as soon as you open NetSentry.
NetSentry? says instead of 3G/2G network just pdp0. Maybe that is the standard interface on the Samsung Galaxy but I don't know. One more question, when I started NetSentry? the first time, it already showed me traffic. Is this the traffic since boot?
how do you make it run in such a super duper background mode?
It sounds like a mechanism I could use at

Thanks! jim
Are you willing to add the same functions netsentry currently provides for data, also for sms and phone calls? I think it would be really great if you could have all theses things in one app. I could send you some code which shows how to read sent and received sms and the call log. Just contact me :-)
To benefit from your source code. Thanks!

Very useful app. It would be nice to have access to the last periods of counting. Today I have to remember the traffic on the last day of a month, which may be forgotten (for comparing with the bill).
Thank you! Thomas
Um im new to internet on phones. I got your netsentry and i was wondering what is wlan. Is it my wifi usage cause it also says pdp0 and thats lower. Does wlan0 use data?
P.S. I did look for definitions but they just gave me the basis
