Cingular RAZR V3 (Blue) problems

My problems just started about a week ago on a phone I have had for nearly a year. I have usually gotten at least 2-3 days worth of full power out of a single charge, even more when I go a few days without heavy use. S

tarting recently though, the charge is much shorter, usually dropping to only two bars within a day to a day and a half of charging, regardless of how frequently I use the phone in that period.

In addition, whenever I try to access the camera, which has always worked just fine, the phone instantly freezes and I need to remove the battery in order to use the phone again.

I don't know what is causing this, there hasn't been any recent physical or liquid damage to the phone. Anyone have any ideas on how I could possibly fix this?

Batteries wear out. Sometimes you can renew some life by recycling a couple of times thru a full charge (phone off); then full discharge; cycle twice taking the battery out of the phone between charges for a few minutes. Here's some helps:
