it was fine two days ago.. then.. started using it.. got down to 30%
and tried to recharge.. overnight.. still 30%.. couldn't believe it.
so i thought i should drain it fully.. hard reset device and told it
to ALWAYS stay on (using FPSUtil).. got it down to register 0% in
FPSUtil.. charged it.. max charge = 3%.. turn on device.. even with
device in cradle.. death..
