    I haven't bought a WP8 yet since none is available here in the Philippines. (though eyeing an HTC 8S) I just wanna now if anyone has tried Data Sense on an unlocked version of the phone since most phones here are bought unlocked. I read that Data Sense should be supported by the carrier, I doubt the carriers here in the Philippines would spend resources on making that possible, but can I still use it as a stand alone data counter like the counter app by Nokia?

    Datasense doesn't seem to be implemented anywhere but Verizon in the US.

    The Nokia counters app isn't available on WP8 at present either, so we have no easy way of knowing how much data we are using.

    DataSense has a data tracker that does not rely on carrier information for usage. Maybe the DataSense application can be used without the data compression? Does anyone on a non Verizon phone have the DataSense application?

    Don't forget to thank and like anyone who deserves it!

    If I remember correctly DataSense is currently Verizon exclusive. Not sure for how long though.

    Thanks for the feedback. I guess I have to wait for the successor of the Lumia 710. The 920 and 820 would surely be really expensive here.

    Data Sense isn't available on unlocked phones...
    But theres a voting, perhaps it helps (please vote): Data Sense: Enable it for the unlocked phones
