so i have a galaxy s2, and it was working fine not too long ago.
within the past month, i noticed every now and then, when i'd yank the phone off the charger, it'd go from 100% to some other %. initially, those first few times, it was only a drop of 10-20% then just a few days ago, it started dropping 60-70%. plugging the phone back in once the drop occurred, seemed to fix it after some charging time.
yesterday, it has ceased to charge in any kind of a logical fashion. it seems that sometimes a little power trickles into it as i can keep it kind of hovering around 3-10% charge with enough unplugging and fiddling with it.
this has been happening both with phone on, off, in airplane mode, with data connections, with and without a battery monitoring/charging app, with three different wall sockets on two different circuits, one hard wired charger, two usb plug chargers, two usb cables, three batteries, and two car chargers.
currently, any attempt at prolonged charging with the phone on or off yields only a steady drain with an intermittent increase of a single percent or two despite the fact that the battery indicator will switch to showing 100% after a few moments.
most recently, i have tried swapping a fully charged battery from my mother's galaxy s2 into my phone in the hopes it would be able to keep that charge, but no luck. as soon as i unplugged it after a few minutes, it dropped right to ~70%
all three batteries have charged fine and hold their charge fine in my mother's phone.
any suggestions and etc?
