Hello guys im new here and this seems to be a good place to get help. My problem is that im having major battery drain! It was at 100% at 23.00 when i went to sleep and when i woke up at 07.00 the battery was dead. Ive been recharching it twice a day and it just drains crazy much battery when on standby. Yes it is jailbroken and overall everything ive got installed is

Zephyr
Installous
SBsettings for NC
DimmedNCBackground
Barrel
Activator
Favorite contact in NC
(NC=notification center)

But I dont really think they would drain it that much cuz ive been the only one with that much of a problem when i googled it. I woul love if I could try and restore it but without updating to 5.1.1 i wanna keep it 5.0.1 and jailbroken/rejailbroken after the restoration. If you have ANY suggestions on what I could do it would help really much.

btw i got 3G turned off, low brightness, location servises off, almost nothing on the notification side on setting (like a red dot called ''notiser'' in swedish dunno in english) overall i got 13 apps on my phone from the app store. got 116 songs and 900 pictures got 10.3 gb availible. running on modemfrimware 1.0.13

any suggestions are welcome Thank you!

Yes actually there is...
Just do the steps that i'll give you, and you should notice a difference.

Go to Settings > General > About > Diagnositcs & Usage.
Now just choose Don't Send.
Go back to Settings then do the followings:
- Disable Location Services
- Notifications ( Disable OR modify the settings to manual and disable the apps that you don't want to be notified with)
- Brightness (Adjust the brightness to less than %50, and enable Auto-Brightness )
- iCloud (This is the major issue, Just delete the account)

That should make a difference.

Let me updated. ;)

I guess the problem from your cydia apps,
cuz they'll be running all day,
so try to delete them and see.
Also, updating your iphone to 5.1.1 might solve the problem.
Honestly, I was having troubles with battery by loosing %1 each 10 min!
(my iPhone not jailbroken)
and I updated my iPhone to 5.1.1 then did the steps that I provided, and my problem almost solved. at least I can go 2 days on standby without charging!

Leave it on standby for about an hour

an hour on standby normally won't take more than %1 from your battery.
if you noticed any loosing in the battery more than %2, then the problem not solved yet. :p
