I think Bitesms is still not stable for IOS 6. Yes, I agreed tweaks does drained your battery faster. Or could make your phone unstable. Try to minimize your tweaks. I had zephyr, Auxo, swipe selection, tetherme, Adblocker, Nitrous and zeppline and bitesms. All legit bought from cydia. After remove bitesms, the phone running better. Still drain battery faster than stock IOS.

I don't think it's the app from cydia. I have all kinds of tweak running and battery doesn't drop over night. Try restoring your phone.

it's an awesome app, but i have a feeling it's draining a bit of my battery. i only have a few tweaks installed. Zephyr BiteSMS SBSettings Activator SpringFlash SwipeSelection and my battery life is a lot less than when i wasn't jailbroken. i wish all these Cydia app developers spent some more time on making their apps as efficient as possible, but unfortunately as the jailbreak scene has a very limited market that could possibly be quickly damaged with an Apple iOS update, i guess most developers are all about making a quick buck instead of providing top quality software and longevity.
