Latest firmware is the best. It has less bugs and more reliability when using the phone... And about charging, I always charge the phone during the night. Never got any problems with overcharging or whatever.

I think you have a fake battery.

Fake, old and long time no used batteries may result in having short running time. Try charging the battery fully (to 100%) and draining it to 0% then. Repeat that process 3 or 4 times and see what happens.

that method doesn't really apply to lithium batteries. It sounds like the battery needs replacing.
