Well that's great. All I did was install it again I was down to 76% with 1hr 20mi. Of usage. I always get to 90% with that usage. Plus my phone was hot.
Perhaps something is conflicting.

That's Zeppelin. I have Netatalk installed on my i5 so my Macs can connect via Appletalk to my iPhone. I went in to the carrier packages that Zeppelin uses, duplicated and renamed the Sprint one. Then I opened all of the graphics in Photoshop and removed the "Sprint" name, leaving just the Nextel logo part (this part is the only thing I like about Nextel). Saved them all, fixed the permissions (using iFile) and then told Zeppelin to use my new set.

That tweak never works right in my iPhone. I have quite a few email threads with the developer. It will update, then I unlock the phone, lock the phone and the update is gone. It shows the previous update.

Hmmm I've never had that problem.Of course we have different tweaks. Ah well. It was tongue-in-cheek anyway. Wish it worked for you though.
The problem i have with subtlelock is the massive cpu usage and slowdown i get after a few hours.

Thanks, I like it. Hated that Sprint just chose to use the word "Sprint" for their carrier logo so was happy to see the graphic included with Zeppelin.
That's because SubtleLock currently has a leak that manifests in increased springboard CPU usage with every unlock.
I really wish the developer would just post a rolled-back (stable) version. His recent changes are great, and I look forward to using them minus the leaks, but it is mildly frustrating that I can't use the tweak without suffering battery consequences as I really love the look it provides.
🙁
It's a subtle (heh heh) leak. You'll only notice it if you don't respring/reboot for a long time and you unlock your phone often.
I have my phone reboot and respring every 6 hours, that's probably why I don't have these issues...
