@Coda: Yeah..... I know I need to get a new battery (it's not the first time this has happened with this phone), we just don't have the money right now. My aunt's husband is supposed to be loaning me a phone until I can get a legitimate replacement. Thanks for the info, though. Didn't really think about batteries having useful charge cycles... And the most likely culprit IS overheating. It used to get really hot while it was charging, and while my grandmother (who I got it from) and I were talking on it.
