Battery icon stuck at 100%

My battery indicator is stuck at 100%. It will stay there until it dies. I have tried resetting by holding home and power keys. I have also tried connecting to iTunes and doing a restore. It is still stuck at 100%. Any ideas on how to fix it? It is pretty annoying not knowing how much battery life is left.

If restoring as a new iPhone (not from a backup) doesn't fix it, there may be a hardware problem. In that case, make an appointment with an Apple Store Genius Bar for warranty service.

Battery reading stuck at 100% (iPad3)

My battery display on my new iPad (3rd gen.) is stuck at 100% even after using it for a couple of hours. It happened last week and I was able to fix it by turning off the percentage display under settings and turining it back on. Now that I've recharged, the problem has come back. I've also tried to reboot by holding down sleep and home but that doesn't work. I've read that other people have had this problem with the iPad2, but most of them blamed it on an iOS update. Just wondered if anybody has experienced this with the iPad3, and if so, can you offer a solution?
Thanks

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

IPad 1 battery indicator stuck at 100%

Since yesterday my iPad's battery indicator has been stuck at 100%. I've used it for a few hours since charging it, so I know the indicator is incorrect. Has anyone else encountered this?
I've tried powering it off and on again, but it still reads 100%.

Apple Wireless Keyboard (2011) Battery Level Stuck At 100%?

I got a new iMac, the one that was released by apple in late November, and I went to system preferences > keyboard, noticing that the keyboard battery level is stuck at 100% every time I check now and then... Anyone else having this issue? Fixes? Help?

Hello:
I suggest you install a widget (mighty monitor) that gives more accurate readings.

Iphone 5 battery is stuck on 100%

is there any way of resetting the %?
I changed the battery due to it running out at 20-36% most days, since putting the new battery in it has been stuck on 100%, I even tried the original battery and another new battery but still get the same, it doesn't change.
Also when when the phone is switched off for any reason, once switched back and is used for what ever or put straight on charge it seems to crash and reset after around 3/4 mins, all 3 batteries do the same thing. I've found that if I plug it in to switch it on then remove charger for about 5 mins or I dont touch anything for 5 mins then when I go back to it it can be used/charged as normal.
I can deal with it but it's just annoying more than anything, does any one have any ideas as to why this has happened and can I sort it?
Changing IOS didn't help
Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, by changing the battery yourself, you could have damaged something in the phone. Your problem is beyond the scope of this forum as the iPhone is not user serviceable. I suggest you try some of the self fix it sites on the web. They might be able to solve the problem or at least point you in the right direction.
Hope you can solve the problem.

IPhone 5 battery getting stuck at 100%

I recently got an iPhone 5 16GB as a gift, and I love it. I have only charged it 5 times and the lowest I've let the battery get so far is 14%. However the one problem i've been having is that two of the five total times i've charged it, the battery percentage will be stuck at 100% for about 2-3 hours even after moderate to heavy use before it starts to show that it's going down. The only conclusion I have for this is that the lowest I've let the battery get is 14% and not completely drained yet. Would charging the phone to 100% then letting it get so low that it turns itself off fix this issue?

Depending upon what you consider to be "moderate to heavy use" what you are seeing might be normal. I charge my iPhone 5 every night, many mornings, it goes 1-1.5 hours before it drops form 100%. I don't use my iPhone all the time, but I do tend to use it to look at emails in teh morning beofer I get to the office. In the 1.5 hours after I unplug it, it may have 10-15 minutes of "screen on time" before the battery meter shows it dropping from 100%. I suspect that there is nothing wrong with your iPhone or battery, it is just that you might not be sued to the battery efficiency the iPhone 5 has in comparison to older iPhone models.

HT4993 Battery indicator stuck at 100% since update to iOS 6

Since I have update my IPhone 4S to the iOS 6 operating system my battery indicator is stuck at 100%. I know that I should have used battery life since it has been over 24 hours since it has been plugged in. Has this happened to anyone else and how can I fix it? I have trued resetting the phone and also tried resetting it when plugged in.

It HAS to be hardware..
I made the appointment, thank you.
I consistently close all apps, keep my brightness down, keep wifi off when not in use, and location services. Reset my phone and still the battery drains so fast!
It appears to be messaging, and Facebook apps, and safari that are the leading cause..
If I send maybe 10 texts, I'll easily lose 4-8 % battery. I literally watch it drain in front of my eyes.
Roughly a minute of Facebook, safari, or mail consumes 1-2%.
That is faulty hardware, or software..
Either way it's apples fault. My phone is mint! Never been out of this otter box except to wipe dust off and when I charge it..
I charge regularly. Let it die down before charging, and let it almost completely die then fully charge it once a month too.
I hope apple repairs my battery, or software

IPhone5 battery icon stuck at 10%

After recharging my iPhone5 for 30 minutes, the battery icon stays at 10%. I have to restart my device in order for the icon to move.
Also, when I am in the car using the USB cable, the phone continually turns off on its own and restarts a number of times.

Have you ever calibrated your battery? I.e. deplete the battery, then when it goes to sleep mode, leave it overnight without mains to really drain it.
Try that and then next morning, connect to mains and restart.

Battery meter stuck at 100% Power Source: Power Adapter even when unplugged

For the past few days my Macbook Pro has been saying it's plugged in even when it is not. The battery meter stays at 100% even though the battery is draining. The other day it died while I was using it and gave no warning that the battery was low. The battery meter on the side seems to show the correct battery level, however.
Is there any way that I can reset whatever runs the battery meter?

Reset the System Management Controller:

If that doesn't correct it and you still have waranty coverage, take the machine in for service.

Battery meter stuck at 100% on Ipad 4

I tried resetting and it worked the first day. Second day it didn't work, downloading a battery app fixed the problem that day. Third day nothing works and is really annoying.
What could I do? Is this a software problem?
Thanks a lot in advance.

This has happened to me a couple of times and rebooting or restarting the iPad eventually cures it for me.
Try a combination of things like plug it into the wall socket to recharge for a few minutes and then uplug it. Reboot the iPad again and see if the indicator starts working again.
Power the iPad down for about 10 minutes or so, restart it and see if that helps.
Just start experimenting with things like to see if you can trip the gauge back into working properly.
Of course you could try resetting all settings as well. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. If you do that you will have to set all of the preferences again in the settings app.

Battery % is stuck, No permanent icons on bottom of screen

Hi. My iphone 4 is 5 months old. I plugged it into my laptop to charge up and since then my battery percentage on the phone is stuck on 4% but the phone is charged. Also when the phone is charging the big battery icon in the middle of the screen stays in the red and doesnt move to green at all. And at the same time the 4 permenent icons that stay down the bottom when you swipe from one screen to the next have disappeared. There is no permanent icons anymore. To access these, especially the phone, i had to push the home button twice and then swipe to find the phone which is a pain. Thanks for any help. And this all happened when i charged the phone from my laptop, which was plugged into power at the same time
Net

thanks both i've managed to do it now. although the icon looks different now. before it was an actual folder with applications written on it. now it's an icon the same as the address book icon. it does the trick though which is the main thing.

IPhone 4s battery stuck at 100 percent. How do I get it back to normal?

iPhone 4s battery stuck at 100 percent. How do I get it back to normal?
Ever since the update, I am having issues with the battery. Phone shuts down while it still shows 100 percent battery life. Normally not a big deal because I don't use it all the time but lately an issue when I'm working in Manhattan and it shuts down while in the middle of conversation or emailing.
I can't go around charging it every hour wondering what my battery life really is.
Please help!

My phone now is not working at all. It only works for a few minutes while it is plugged into the wall and then it shuts down and pops right back up showing it has 75% battery. It has been doing this since yesteday afternoon.
I tried the reset and it is still acting up. Dreading having to take this to the Apple store since it is past the initial 90 days and I will probably get charged for it. :( Dont want to shell out money for a new one since I just got this one in October.
Thanks for your help.

STUCK on white screen with battery icon in the middle with RED LIGHT

I have BB curve 8900 and my BB shutdown by itself yesterday and it wont start on again !
so i charged it the red LED start to show and white screen with battery icon in the middle it looks like empty battery, and stuck on it and sometimes it keeps spinning over and over again until it bcome black screen then it starts the same begining !
I tried the hard boot by taking the battery out for sometime and reinstalled it but it didn't work. I even try putting a different battery (friends battery) but still no joy..
and the main catch is if i try taking out the battery and plug the charger or connects it to the laptop it does the same thing without even any battery in it.
So is it really a Battery problem or the OS problem.?? (If its a OS problem, can u install it myself at home.?
Waiting for the reply
Thanks

Well, you need to do as suggested first.
Then, if not: If your BlackBerry stays powered off with a black screen, follow the instructions below. The only indication of life might be the blinking red LED light in the top corner. Nothing seems to wake it up and Desktop Manager doesn't recognize any device is connected.
1) Make sure you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/desktop/
2) On your PC, go to Start > Run and copy and paste the following line exactly (meaning with the quotation marks):
"c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader\loader.exe" /nojvm
3) The Application Loader Wizard will appear -- click "Next."
4) In the "Connection:" drop-down menu, you should see "USB-PIN: UNKNOWN". Click the "Next" button.
5) You should then see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Hit Next and Finish and you are well on your way to getting your Blackberry back to life. Congrats! Just don't disconnect anything and let the lengthy process finish completely.
NOTE: If you do not see a list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead see the message "The Blackberry Desktop Software does not have Blackberry Device Software for the device that you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator," then you must download Blackberry's Operating System for your carrier and device.
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
Just select the appropriate carrier and network type, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the above steps again and you should be on the right path.
