hi there,

I also see a lot of battery drain after mms patch BUT i dont have status notifyer installed

[Lord Reaper]

same here.. I thought it was push after I installed IM 3.1, then I turned off push, drain got slow but still, I used to use it for 2.5 days, now it decreased to 1 frekin' day! I even uninstalled IM...

after my initial upgrade to os3, i didn't notice any substantial increase in battery life. after installing mms patch and subsequent ipcc file to allow fro different apn's, i could sit and watch the battery count down. opening an app would use 1%, switching screens on springboard would use 1%, accessing the internet would cost 2-5%. leaving the phone alone in standby i was losing 15-20% every 2 hours or so.

i've restored and rejailbroken. i have only installed ireal, winterboard, sbsettings and swirlyMMS. i charged my iphone all night and so far this morning the battery seems to be back to normal. i'm going to use it like this today and then restore and install the same apps but use the activatemms2g patch instead of swirly and retest the battery. will update after trying this.

My battery was draining but after I uninstall winterboard the battery life is going back to normal. I think it is the bug in winterboard.

My battery drains 5% every 2 hours or so in standby mode. I am positive it's the MMS patch based on a process of elimination. I can't figure out what would be running. I'm gonna try out swirly and see if I have same drain issue. Maybe the 2g can't handle the it, that's why Apple won't offically enable it.

**UPDATE **

This is going to sound crazy! , I flash my phone with this FW "link"
is already jailbroken and unlocked. ( no need to use redsnow )just connect the phone to itune$ and update+ shift and find the custom FW.

set up the phone as new , installed all my apps and all my info . Uploaded the carrier bundle for tmo.

on IPHONE : open cydia i added this repo : cydia.szifon.com , looked for 2GMMS/tether/CFW patch installed and rebooted.

tested the phone all day long ( from 7am to 5pm )
With redsnow , no custom FW
@7am : 100%
@9am : 65% few mms, and sms
@11am : 50% few sms
@2pm : 35% few mms ,sms , cydia browse
@4pm : 20% no mms , no sms
@5pm : 10% few calls, and ipod use.

With custom FW , no redsnow
@7am : 100%
@9am : 95% few mms, and sms
@11am : 80% few sms
@2pm : 75% few mms ,sms , cydia browse
@4pm : 60% no mms , no sms
@5pm : 50% few calls, and ipod use.

yeay im happy! i get to keep my mms

also did this to my wifes phone and she is getting better results , she doesnt use the phone as much as i do thats why! she came home at 5 and her phone showed 75%! and she is the one i send the MMS to


i hope this helps someone .. Thank you! and your welcome!

That is still bad battery life IMO...

iPhone should last at least 2 days with few calls and minor usage (Wifi, SMS, Safari and iPod).

The only way to know if you are achieving good results with MMS is to compare battery life with it enabled and battery life without it.

Anybody else lost their "Missed Call Notification" (Lockscreen) after Jailbreaking/Unlocking 3.0 with Redsn0w?

Just in case anybody else is looking for the answer to this "MIssed Call Notification" on the lockscreen issue. There is new option in iBlacklist which turns this off for privacy. I spent WAY too much time trying to figure out why my 3.0 install was breaking my Missed Call Notifications.

I wish developers wouldn't change default phone settings like this without really making it known. I also wish Cydia required a good Change Log right in the Cydia app. But those aren't topics here.

i got the mms to work on my 2g using the sinfuliphone app from his site.

but the battery drainage is horrible, in 5 mins of radio streaming i went down about 6 % its crazy, i used to go at least 6 hours of listening to the radio on the phone before it even hit 30%

i have unistalled the program for now til a fix can be found
