U need to jailbreak and install SBSettings, then u go to "Process" and can see all the process running.
I personally think jailbreak have more or less effect battery life, if u play hard on your phone theme, but not a critical point of battery drain fast la.

i already install sbsetting, how to go "process"? coz not have icon for sbsetting

Are you using a 3Gs? It's well known that leaving it on will reduce the battery life by 10% an hour. If you're on 4.3.1, even connecting it to Wifi will reduce the battery life (this does not happen on 4.3.2 or 4.2.1)

My advice is for you to update to the latest iOS, and if you're not using 3G, switch it off.

i have get this problem too. just leaving my iphone3gs without do anythings, battery life will be reduce fast. i`m now using os version 4.1. i`m want update my ios, but i scared if my data will be lost like phone contact,

it will be auto backup n restore ? or need do manual? coz i`m still newbies on iphone.

I am on 4.3.3 for my 16GB iPhone 4, Jailbroken with tons of Cydia Apps and SBSettings will be the first Cydia apps I installed (Can't have my iPhone without SBSettings)

I have Wifi on ALL the time. I switch on Edge and 3G only when I need it (that's why I have SBSettings so that I can switch them off/on easily)

BT is OFF only when I am using Celeste which is rare.

Notifications is ON but not for FB etc .... I don't even know what's the use of these stuffs anyway

Location services is ON

I usually get 2 FULL days of battery and if I don't use it that much to surf the net, I get 2.5 days before the battery dies on me.

If I switch on 3G/EDGE, the battery depletes 2% every hour (without doing anything)

u wont lose data. plug in ur phone in itunes, press sync n itunes will create a backup of ur phone including ur contacts etc. it will ask u to download 4.3.3, so just download and install when it's done. after installing, itunes will restore ur data again. it's pretty much flawless.

yes u need to JB again

about ur contacts, u should have a backup anyway just in case u lost ur phone etc. i have all my contacts stored up in my gmail contacts, synced to my phone. lots of other alternatives around. u should look into it if u value ur contacts list

how to backup contact on gmail ? can tell me how to do that ?
yes i remember back, every time i connect my phone to laptop/pc, itunes will show msg about update 4.3.3 , it seem like my old blackbery when i update to new os.. itunes will backup automatic right?
what the best on new OS? battery not drain fast?
