I am on iOS 8.1.2 jailbroken with taig and for some reason, I am not seeing any battery usage info. Please see attached screenshot.

Although it says 100% I have been using it for about 20 mins and haven't seen any change in battery info, it did populate when I first unplugged it from the wall?

Any ideas?

You're jailbroken so you've probably performed a respring. Battery usage appears that way after a respring.
 
A respring? Sorry, I'm new to this, whats a respring? And is there anyway I can stop it happening?

The main screen where all your icons are located is called a Springboard. When the springboard is reloaded (black screen white apple logo) that is a called a respring.

A lot of Cydia apps/tweaks require a respring when you install them or when you make changes. So chances are you will have to respring more often because you are jailbroken.

Ah OK, I thought it was something like that. So will I get battery stats when I fully charge again?

Cheers

Most likely but next time you restart your phone (respring) due to some change in a jailbreak tweak it's going to blank out again :)
 
Just wondering how OP could jailbreak and be unaware of what a respring is? I'm not JB and even I know what it is.
Because I have only had an iOS device for 3 days and I am still learning the terminology.

All jailbreaking took was running a windows program with my ipad plugged in. No need to know what a respring is?
