I jailbroke my phone last week and since then I my battery lasts much longer. I never had a problem with the battery, but now its unbelievable. I am running sbsettings, winterboard, backgrounder (haven't been using it), reflective dock, and status notifier. I used to burn 8-12% of my battery overnight or 1-1.5% an hour. Now I only burn 4-5%. Previously, when 90% of my battery was left I would typically have a usage time of 30 minutes max. Now I am getting 45-60minutes of usage before I get to 90%. While I haven't gone all the way through the battery this pattern is maintained even when my battery only has 40% left.
I was expecting worse battery usage, not better. Anyone else experiencing this.
