Yesterday I was using my phone while it was on low battery, all of a sudden it died.
I figured the battery died.. When I got home, and plugged it in it too got the red light of death. I let it charge all night, but the light stayed solid red.
When I got to work this morning, I searched the forums here, and tried removing the battery, then putting it back in. It seems to have worked! Now the light is lit orange, as if it's charging.
One thing I might suggest is a dab of DeoxIT on the battery connectors.
It really helps clean those contacts.
