iPhone battery won't even last me half a day

[petrucci666]

I used to worry about my battery percentage when I got my new phone. Now that I don't, i feel my battery life has increased up to 3 times.

just stop looking at the bar or the %, and it will last longer.

The thing is, I never have the battery percentage on. I hate how it takes up too much space up there in the corner (probably my OCD).


I updated to 4.3.3. and jailbroke it - just to see if the redsn0w fix will fix the battery drain problem. If nothing happens even then, then I'll restore it to normal and test it out.

Tested it out yesterday - the redsn0w fix does not fix the battery drain.

I got 5 hours and 9 minutes of usage yesterday.

I'll go ahead and unjailbreak it and see how long it lasts me.

before: 100%->10% battery in 24 hours (no usage)
now: 100%->40% battery in 48 hours (3h usage, 48h standby)

Try these:

1. Always keep your brightness around 50-60%.
2. Always close any windows in browsers, many sites refresh/reload and drain your battery.
3. If you have apps in the multitasking bar you don't use often remove them.

Often times when the iPhone's battery is an issue it's due to some service/app that's draining it.
