Root the phone and install droidwall. If you get a phone with kitkat then it is in the phone setting to turn off background data usage.

Try Onavo count, dats d best, nd make sure you force stop some irrelevant apps

hmmm... battery vampire

turn off data roaming and location/map services in settings. turn off auto update and also, make sure u force close all ur apps that connect to internet when not in use eg playstore. forget the warning, it doesn't damage the app.

with all these, u don't need a special app, just browse normally, u can even leave ur internet on 24/7

people need to know that they can drastically reduce their data consumption. Opera Max is a must for everyone since all these network are giving us limited data.
