Battery didn't charge?

Odd goings on. A few days ago I was using my Touch (Sprint) with the Seidio 2000mah battery and got a low battery warning. It was about 8am and I really hadn't done much on the phone since taking it off the charging cable. I looked at the meter and it showed 10%. Hmm, I soft reset it and checked again and it was at about 85%.

Same thing happened twice since then. Last night I was checking the weather at about 6pm and the battery showed 50%. Didn't do anything else before going to bed. When I went to plug it in, it was hung up. Screen was off, no lights, wouldn't come out of standby, nor power on. I plugged it in and the speaker light showed red. I waited a few seconds and held the power switch in. It turned on. I unplugged the power and it showed 40% power on the battery.

I powered it off then back on and plugged it back in and left it over night. This morning when I picked it up it was "dead" again. It wouldn't power on. I hit the soft reset and it came up with a low battery warning.

So right now it's off and plugged into my laptop appearing to charge. Left speaker LED is amber.

I've had the 2000mah battery for a few weeks now. Didn't have any problems power problems till this week.

Anyone else have a similar problem with their Touch (or other phone)? Bad battery, charger or phone?

Thanks.
