Even with the iPhone 5 on the market, the previous iPhone 4 still remains one of the most popular smartphones around. After all, by this point phone carriers are offering the older model at incredible discounts so your able to get a pretty strong tech item for cheap these days. However despite the fact that it's a great phone battery life has always been one of the device's most glaring issues. Want to increase that juice by 100 percent? This tweak might allow you to do that.

If you've got any sort of gadget running iOS, chances are you've probably already heard about the various software mechanisms that can be used to squeeze a little more life from your battery. Still what happens after you've disabled all of your push notifications, alarms, and shut off your wifi? There's only so much you can do before you've just got to put up with the drain. This is especially true when you've got a jailbreak in the mix that adds mobile substrate  to the already full platter that is iOS.

 

That's where akAuto3G comes in. We all know that data connection can be one of the biggest culprits to battery loss, and you've probably already been known to turn it off during your busiest days. This little tweak just offers you a solution that you might call just a bit more automatic. Instead of having to manage things yourself, this will disable your 3G connection automatically when your device is locked. After all, you aren't using it anyway in this case so why does it matter? Once you rewake the device the 3G will automatically come back on too!

 

As far as tweaks go, this one won't come cheap at $2.99 but as long as you have firmware 4.3.3 or 5.1.1 and the supported iPhone 4 or 4S device it's supposedly functional enough to give your battery a 100% boost. If that sounds good to you, you can find akAuto3G in the BigBoss repo.

I've never used a smartphone because I feel like battery is still an issue for so many models. Still I've heard a lot of talk about the new iPhones being exceptionally terrible. True, or false?

If you are referring to LTE models then it depends on how much you talk on the phone. I talk very little and my phone holds a charge for 2 days easy. Or if I do wind up talking on the phone all day then it'll only last that day. Either way it gets plugged in every night so....

I've used droids that only last a day no matter how much you use them.

My phone's battery is pretty mellow, but I'm picking up a One X and am a bit concerned about the potential change.

We'll see.
