For anyone who has a jailbroken 3G iPhone and wants to scrobble from it, open Cydia > View Multimedia Apps > Scrobble / Scrobbled.

I use the latter and works perfectly, runs in the background and Ill check back with battery life in the next few days :)

Just thought Id post it here as quite a few people were after one a few weeks ago and not sure if everyone found it!
 
Unfortunately i've had problems with both of these apps. Althought they both use the old Mobile Scrobbler code, neither seems to work as well.

With Scrobble I had the problem that it frequently refuses to scrobble anything at all or will scrobble 1 track then miss then next 5 or something like that.

With Scrobbled the performance was a bit better with most tracks being scrobbled. But occasionally it completely stops working, and in the settings page it doesn't tell you the status (i.e. what's queued or not) it just permanently shows "scrobbler offline" even when it isn't.

Scrobbling is a major reason to jailbreak for me, as the PC Last.fm client frequently doesn't detect all my scrobbles (especially not automatically - I have to force it to scrobble from the Diagnostics tab) and often if your iPhone crashes or you reboot it - recent track plays seem to get lost.
