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.

    The icons at bottom of the screen won't work. I can slide them, but they won't tap for use.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Since upgrade I can no longer see tray icons on bottom of screen - how do I uncover them?

    Since the latest upgrade, Firefox now covers my entire screen. I can get used to the disappearing tabs & such on the top, but for my job I need to switch back & forth between browser and email a lot, and need quick control of the volume bar. The entire bottom tray of icons is covered by Firefox now, and it doesn't have any quick way to make it go away. How do I uncover these?

    The options in that menu now are aside of the home page icon, just click on the menu icon

  • Lost my document icon on bottom of screen.

    I lost the document icon on the bottom of my screen. How can I get it back?

    Click on the house icon in the Finder's sidebar and drag it back from there. In recent Mac OS X versions, you can also drag it back directly from the sidebar.

  • Can icons on bottom of screen be changed

    Wondering whether the 4 icons at the bottom of the screen can be changed.  For example, I would prefer to remove the Music one and replace it with Messenger.  Thanks!!

    You have the ability to move icons around on the phone and arrange in any way you see fit. Just hold down on the icon until it starts to wiggle and then using your finger move to whatever location you want. After you finish moving then tap the home button.

  • Help-lost all my icons at bottom of screen

    I hit something and I lost all my icons. I don't know if that is what they are called really. The little pictures at the bottom of your comp. when you turn it on. They help you get to itunes, iphoto, firefox, ect,. Does anyone have any idea how I get them back? I was trying to force quit when I lost them, if that helps. Thanks.

    Open the Dock pane of System Preferences and turn off the option to show or hide the Dock automatically; one of the other settings affects where the Dock appears, which should be set to the bottom. If the issue cannot be fixed from System Preferences, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, enter /System/Library/CoreServices/ as the folder's location, and double-click the item named Dock there.

  • No burn cd icon at bottom of screen

    Hi, I made a playlist to burn a cd like the help instructions said to do. It said to click on the Burn CD icon on the bottom right hand corner of the screen. However, there is no icon there. I downloaded 8.2 last week, so I'm updated and everything. Anyone know what my issue could be?

    If the problem is that the bottom of the iTunes window is not visible, go to Control Panel > Settings and increase your screen resolution, perhaps to 1024 x 768 or higher.

  • Download icon on bottom of screen

    I was deleting documents from my download into trash and mistakenly deleted the entire "download" function.  I'm not able to download.  Help!

    I think you are referring to the Download item located on the Dock. It's just an alias to your real Downloads folder locate in your /Home/ folder. Select the folder's icon and drag it to the right side of the Dock next to the Trashcan.
    Usually, you download files through your browser, not through the Dock.

  • I lost start icon at bottom of screen

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My z10 battery still stucked at 95% . Need help ASAP .

    Hi everyone, I'm facing a very frustrated moment in my Z10, my battery do stucked at 95% when ever it's charging. I've did the method by Jsanders ( remove battery while charging ) I've did that method roundly 2hours since yesterday, only sometimes it can be charged till 100% , but when I check About> hardware .. It's showing 98% and its not same, hmmm please please please help me out feeling so sad do I need to downgrade my OS maybe? Pleas please help me. Your time is much appreciated

    Vincci, there is no need to start an entire new thread on the very same issue.
    Your other thread:  http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Z10/MY-Z10-BATTERY-WONT-FULLY-CHARGED-STOPPED-AT-8...
    Remember what I posted in the other thread:
    "Remember, those charge percentages are basically on an estimation of the software's interpretation of the charge level in the battery. That percentage is calculated from a number of items such as charge history, current power level of the battery and other things beyond me. What shows as a 90% charge could actually be 95%, or thereabouts."
    The device OS will rememeber the battery ID of the battery and doing the process I outlined can and will reset the on-device battery meter. Just try it again in a day or so, and then again later.
    But, the bottom line is that 95-98% is basically 100%. You're talking about battery charge estimations, not concrete amounts. This is not like filling a five gallon water bucket and only getting 4.5 gallons in.

  • The sync icon is constantly on-screen and battery is draining really quickly.

    The sync icon is constantly on-screen and my battery is draining really quickly. I can stop it by re-starting the iPhone, but is this a known problem? The sync and iCloud seem to be working properly, but I can see the battery drop by about 1% every minute.
    Sync is taking place over wireless, but even if I sync using the cable, the icon remains on-screen even when iTunes tells me that the sync is complete.

    Yes, iOS4, latest and a 3GS.
    So, with the home button double-tap, those two apps aren't showing in the recents list?
    Nope, not showing: http://d.pr/CQnR

    Did you reset like this?... press the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Did that as well, still the problem remains.
    I don't know if I should really bother but I just find it weird and I think it has a slight impact on the battery time.
