how long you have left it for charging ? While charging, did you use it, such as games, WiFi turn ON, 3G turn ON ?

recommended to turn off WiFi, 3G if you are not in use (default is ON)

Or maybe you have completed the 300th charge cycle?

what do u mean ? errr..?

this will be my last post before i hop over to bed. possible explanation:

1. the gauge seen in the pictures above is not the original apple's and a possible mis-calibration has occurred. perhaps restoring to a brand new phone? (proceed with care) since this phone is new to you anyway and won't harm to have a fresh start.

2. perform a battery memory reset. drain the battery completely until you see an electrical plug icon. proceed to give a complete charge (of perhaps 8 hours?) with the phone turned on. once completed, turn off the iphone and leave it untouched for a couple of hours.

3. a faulty battery; replace it with a brand new one.

You have fully charged your phone (100%) and use till it dries out (0%). Then you fully charge it again and repeat the same thing for 300-400 times. Your battery has reached the charge cycle limit, so you might get lower battery life and you might have to replace your battery.

He's using 2G iPhone lah bro

Try changing the Aqwoah Battery Theme to the default one .. ??

use default battery gauge la.

I got a feeling it is just the battery icon that is giving the problem. Even a non-full capacity battery will still indicate the battery is fully charged. The only difference is the battery will drain faster.

Anymore suggestion on this kind of situation?

have you tried any of the suggested alternatives above, to begin with?

@SixtyNine

Like nokia said, what have you done so far? Do reply/feedback fast if you can.

my seller said he left the battery empty for quite a long time.. coz didn't use the phone..probably for few month
then after that mar like tis lor..

Ok..given that he told you what he did, have you deleted the theme or the battery pictures from you phone and use the default battery pictures as suggested by many here?

Again, do you know how to delete the theme or battery pictures?

TS, just uninstall the Aqwoah Battery Theme in the Installer and it will revert back to the default battery gauge. Check the battery gauge by charging again as I suspect the theme have something to do with the problem.

My seller has uninstall it to default mode.. but it's stil the same..
Now waiting for the battery drain out.. coz now i stil can on the iphone and showing plug+charging (screen there)
wanna wait till it's fully run out..
Then charge it back~ haiz..

from wut i know 1st gen iphone had their battery soldered onto the pcb set.

changing it would be tricky.....

whereelse 2nd gen iphone battery r not soldered.

Question-
How much does it cost and where i can replace it? Whose over here change your Battery before?

Answer-
18. iPhone hardware problems and iPhone Accesories/Casings
*crack screen, replacement parts, batteries etc and selling FM Transmitter, Casings, iPhone Opening Tools, Battery Pack etc.
