I really want to JB my ip4, but Ive read it drains way more battery. Im just wondering if some of you could let me know how much of a difference if any you have seen on your battery since JB. I really only want to run T-lert, SBS-settings, lock info, activator, & pdanet.

Also back on my 3g i purchased Lock Info, though Im not sure how I can transfer over my puchase to my ip4 without having to pay for it again, I believe i bought it from cyndia, but i really cant remember. I would rather not open ssh, so what should i do?

Thanks!
 
I've installed almost 40 packages since jailbreak and my battery is as good as day 1. Don't let battery fears keeo you from jailbreaking!

Just do it and if you dont like the outcome, restore...;)

eta: The best JB app, imo, is BITEsms fwiw.
 
There are tons of threads discussing Battery issues just search and you can read up on it. I don't have a problem myself I also don't feel the need to install every app in Cydia. I tend to be pretty selective. if I need it I have it if I don't need it then I don't pretty simple.
 
In regard to previously purchased apps:
I have found in all cases the software vendor
has a record of that purchase and does not charge again
