It does sound like a battery issue or a corrupted OS that a wipe will not totally correct.
some things that can cause your issues
defective battery
defective charger
corrupted OS
combination of battery, OS, lack of service from provider, corrupted OS or APP.
If you can borrow a battery to try that may help you decide.
JL Commander is a good fixer but you MUST read all the instruction to be very sure you understand and follow them.
Read the link on instruction for removing the OS and re-installing it.
