Huge spike in data usage after moving to AOKP.

[Agathocacological]

In the past four days or so, I've gone from 2GB to 3GB of data usage and gone over my limit.
I have rarely left the house in the past four days, and I've been connected to wi-fi the entire time.

Data usage was left on, but doesn't the system prioritize wi-fi, anyways?

I've gone ahead and installed Onavo to find out what's going on once my data cycle restarts, but I'm wondering if anybody has any ideas as to what might've happened.

Check your wifi settings. Make sure "keep wifi on during sleep" is set to Always.

It's set to always.

Are you watching movies with your phone or something?

No. I streamed with Pandora, and might've accidentally left it running in the background because I'm not used to the AOKP interface yet, but my phone was on the wi-fi network the whole time.

Has nothing to do with the rom

I'd think so too. Better title would've been after performing factory reset.

May as well have blamed the Reagan administration as well... post hoc ergo propter hoc

I've not noticed any data spikes although I haven't been closely monitoring or testing with various roms. If you think it's related to the rom somehow you'll have to test it on your own.

Over the next couple days, when you go to sleep or are on wifi, keep a log of your data usage. First day keep wifi and data on. Next day keep only wifi on. Record the hours of which wifi was on and see if there is any significant data usage during those hours. If you have a backup with your previous rom then perform the same steps. Compare results.

After my plan resets, I'll go ahead and do that.

Just remember if yer wifi goes out and yer screens off you may not notice it switching to data.
