Well here's an odd thing... Just yesterday, my little battery that used to show how much % (or time) I had left on the charge, and would show the plug when charging, no simply shows a little batter icon with an X. Whether it is plugged in or not. I replaced this battery (new) about a year ago. Any ideas why the icon won't show the life or charging status? Thanks!
