I am fairly sure that the cable from Amazon was the culprit. I believe that it was consistently overheating the battery which caused it to swell, which in turn caused the issues mentioned above. I say this because the battery draining issue began three days after I started using that cable. I'm sticking to ape charges now, even though they're very short for my tastes.
