How to know if the battery is about to die - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
When I switch off the cell and the battery symbol is shown, it is shown with a yellow triangle and a thermometer. Does that mean that my battery is about to die?
Thanks,
Vishal

Never seen this before can you post a screenshot?

Attaching here.

Also, this is when the charger is not plugged in. And there is no clean way for me to restart my phone. I have to plug in the charger and then only I can switch on the phone.
I am on 2.3.5 and this was fine till a couple of days back, and now the phone has become a big mess. Tried reflashing, but with no success
Will appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Vishal

Very odd, does your phone feel hot?

No, not at all.
Thanks,

2.1 roms have a battery leak, and android has a bug with the battery when booting while charging. turn off gps, turn off your phone, wait till it is fully charged, then unplug the charger and turn it on again. then check if it is still that bad. also flashing other radio versions might help, the 08.29 radio is said to work better with the 2.1 kernel.

Battery with 5 dots underneath

Hello I just got my phone back from Samsung after I had to send it in because it wouldn't turn on or charge so I sent the phone to get repaired and today I got it back but now I'm having a problem it doesn't seem to be charging but it is just on if you know what I mean. I'm getting a battery icon with 5 dots underneath like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is this normal? If not what should I do?
(Sorry for the bad image I have no way of taking a picture of my phone apart from using the webcam on my laptop.
and you've probably noticed they blink...
it's charging....
that's all....

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thought so it is me just worrying.
Sorry you may delete or close mods

Anyone else notice the powered off Charging screen?

I knew the GPE had one of these but i never experienced it on 4.1.2 but now that we all got the 4.3 OTA i just plugged my phone in this morning and noticed this little thing popped up.
Those Brown and black marks are soldering iron burns i took these pictures on my workbench.

And it animates aswell.
After a few moments it turns the screen off but dosnt seem you can wake it up again to see the current charge percentage without powering the device on.
Real question is. Can you customize it?
I had not noticed this. On my device, a short tap on the power button will bring up the display again. I didn't leave it in long enough to see the percentage.

Huawei s7-301u - not charging

Hi,
I've tried few different chargers with no effect. So I have decided to open back panel and I've noticed that when I attempt to charge device battery stays completely cold but area right under sim card slot getting really hot.
Is that mean battery need to be replaced or is it something else.
Thanks for any help.

Try unplugging the battery and plugging it in. If it gets hot still, it is likely a short. If it doesn't, it is likely the battery.

V60 battery drain

Hey guys...
Haven't had any problems with this phone till now...
Drained during the night to 1%
Took a while to go back to fast charging....
Now even with power saver, it drains abnormally... Battery usage info seems inaccurate too but nothing strange as far as apps... I'm on Android 11.
Any advice what to do? Thank you!
Here's a screenshot of the battery usage... Went from 60 to 10% during the night. I really hope a factory reset fixes this...
