So I took my phone out of my pocket and I noticed that it was off, so i thought that somehow I might of turned it off accidentally. I turn it on and at first it was kind of slow like slower than usual. So when it turned a little window thing pops up saying that i have really low battery and then my phone shut down. This is when I got confused because I charge my phone everyday before I go to sleep and when I woke up it had full battery. I didnt use my phone AT ALL since I woke up. But the strange thing is that when I plug in my phone it works normally and says that I have 99% battery. When I unplug it, it says that my phones battery is too low and shuts off. I dont know if I should reset my phone using the "factory reset" option or if there is something else i could do that is much simpler. If you could respond ASAP it would be really helpful becuase I have to go to school tomorrow and I need my phone.

Sounds like one of three things...
1. Battery has gone bad and not holding a charge
2. Wall charger possibly gone bad...
3. The charging internals in the phone itself/hardware has malfunctioned.

I had something similar happen to me with a spare battery. I got an invalid battery notification. I thought it was charging but it never did. I put in a spare and that worked great. Then after a few weeks i tried the original and its working fine now. Since i stopped using the first / problem battery i have done a few hard resets, rooted and done a couple of ROMS. So maybe that fixed what ever problem cropped up.
if you are rooted and have clockwork installed you can boot to clockwork and clear the battery memory. might help
or the charging cable came loose over night. (has happened to me). The stock cable never seems to fit very tight.
