Hey guys I am new to this forum.
So I had my S3 mini for over a year now with no issues. Yesterday the phone just reboots by itself and the battery went from 60% to 14% in a second. Then the phone got stuck in a reboot loop, I had to take out the battery to make it stop rebooting every second. I tried charging the phone all night, for 8 hours, got 10 minutes of usage out of it before it started rebooting again and the battery jumped from 90% to 14% again! The phone is only usable when plugged to the AC, basically not a mobile phone anymore.
Did a factory reset, Thought it will help, it didn't.
Should I get a new battery? Will it help? I saw some batteries for 10$ on ebay, not a big deal, but are they really original? Seller says they are...
