Sudden battery issues

Phone hasn't been dropped. Battery's the Seidio 3200MaH battery and it's only about six months old.

The battery's held strong at 73% since I posted, but something's definitely not right that it won't fill up after a full night's charge.

try deep cycling the battery twice, maybe the phone is just reading the charge wrong and needs to learn how that battery functions again.

I don't believe that twice is needed, especially given the risk to the health of the battery. Shouldn't one deep cycle do it?
