2) I got really annoyed with my phone, whose battery was drained after only about 4 hours. I had an aux charger with me, but the phone's not that old

I googled how to recondition a battery, and tried it - this trick *really* worked. After I finished the third cycle this morning, it's still at 90% after 4 hours.
Cell Phone
Cell phone batteries are not cheap and with daily use you may find your phone battery just doesn't work as well as it used to. You can recondition that battery easily without any special tools needed.
Let your cell phone battery run down until it shuts off the phone. Don't recharge it but instead wait 30 minutes, turn the phone back on and let it run down and turn itself off a second time.
At this point the battery will be fully discharged. Then charge the battery and leave it on the charger for 30-60 minutes after it indicated the charging is complete.
Use your phone as usual and let the battery run down again until it shuts off the phone. Repeat the process above and then do the same a third time.
The reconditioning will take a few days but after three cycles you will have a cell phone battery that is working much more efficiently. This method will work only if the battery is so depleted it won't hold a charge.
After you have gone through the cycles to strengthen the battery, recharge it only after it runs down each time. If you charge more often, you may need to repeat the reconditioning steps every 3-4 months.
