What's your battery life like?

I still have ~45-50% battery life after a whole day of moderate to heavy usage

Loved your list and installed a couple #
I'm enjoying my iphone just that more thanks to you #

No problem!

Do you find that it makes you scan your thumb/finger three times every time? Is that by design or a bug? It'd be perfect if not for that.

I have not encountered such issue, might be a setting or a tweak causing this, or try removing your fingerprints and adding in new fresh fingerprints.

Would you happen to know the difference between StatusVol & StatusVol 2. The developer doesn't seem to put many screenshots.

For me both looks the same.

statusvol seemed to have more theming capabilities, never tried it myself though

-----------------

Here's some new tweaks I have added to my list which have greatly improved my battery life

NoLiveClock
NoMotion
NoTracking+

I purchased Spin after the reviews on this thread. I used it for about 2 weeks and liked it a lot. Mainly because it brought the back / play&pause / forward music controls to the bottom of the screen. This helps me when I'm driving and want to change song easier versus stretching my thumb to the top of the screen.

Anyway, after a few weeks of use, I noticed that my phone crashed a lot. A lot of random reboots. A lot of rebooting also while using Spin (skipping to the next song / back, etc.). I uninstalled the app yesterday and my phone is back seems to be back to normal without crashes.

I'm running 8.1. Anyone else experience the same problems as me?

I'm running 8.1.2 and I noticed some random springboard restarts as well. No full reboots, but disabling Spin cured it for me. Not sure if it is Spin itself or something else that is conflicting with it (other music related tweaks I have are ScrubRadio and using Activator for changing tracks).

I have Spin installed and I am not having those issues at all. I'm on 8.1. Must be a tweak conflict

No Spin crashes here either. Actually, a ton fewer crashes overall on 8.1.2/Taig than I had on 8.1/Pangu.

Yeah I figured it was two tweaks colliding. I do use BDaySpotify, which allows premium access. Maybe that was it. In any event, unfortunately, I still have Spin uninstalled due to wanting the Spotify crack more :)
