Thank you for those that have their in put!
I am truly sorry that I have writing and other disabilities, that are stopping me from explaining what I am trying to say !

It got to do with the battery technology and little to do with measuring electronics.One can never be sure when it is fully charged since the capacity declines ( although by a minuscule limit ) after every charge - discharge cycle.In older technology, it was much worse. I have a phone of 2005 vintage ( if any one remembers those days). Even if charge it for 24 hours, it does not go above 84 percent. It was the first phone that showed charge as percentage. Earlier to that, it was simple indicator, which showed full indicator, even if the battery could run only few hours after a full charge, as against 7 to 8 hours originally.
BestPKSWhat was that one symbol? Since the manual says there are only two, a lightening bolt or a plug.The "gauge" of the battery's charge has never been accurate, compared to say a calibrated Fluke meter. It was not intended to be that accurate. (I used to work in an industry where we sent several hundred Fluke meters in for calibration, each year, but I am not an electronics tech. Not even a Ham. I certified the heavy lifting equipment.) I have been told that the electronic in cellphones is the lowest quality level of electronics.And to be honest, I never noticed it say 100% in the past, when it did not have a plug icon, also. I just looked for the plug icon. I did notice it would say 100% for long periods after it was removed from charging, so obviously it is not accurate.I have had my iPhone 4S in a mophie juice pack, so it generally shows 100% and a lightening bolt, since it is topping off all day long. Only when the mophie depletes does the lightening bolt go away.If you look through Apples knowledge base, you will find that the battery charges to 80% rapidly and then charges slowly for the last 20%. You will also find articles on how to calibrate the indicator, but there is no documentation on how accurate it is.On Sep 26, 2013, at 1:40 PM, Daniel Engstrom wrote:
My point is that it would say 100% but not be fully charged till that one symbol would show up!Not it just shows 100%, and it may not actually be 100%
Sent from KE7UUM's iPhoneThe lightening bolt showed when it was charging, the plug showed when it was fully charged and still plugged in.It is now tells you when it is at 100% charge by showing 100%. It changed. So what?Do you have a different point to make?BrentOn Sep 26, 2013, at 6:27 AM, Daniel Engstrom wrote:
But it use to "only" be there "when fully charged"!
Sent from KE7UUM's iPhoneWhat I see is a little lightning-bolt symbol to the right of, not inside, the battery icon, to show that the charging cable is connected. Perhaps a little clearer?Overall, I'm a fan of the older, warmer interface. The new look is cartoon candy (maybe a tad Windows 8, Goddess forbid), and I find the keyboard/calendar font too slim. I'd placed the calendar icon in the upper left corner of my home screen, where I used to only have to glance at it, but now I find I have to really look at it to get the date. Unfortunately, the bold accessibility font settings don't affect that, or the keyboard. I'm not crazy about the idea that my phone should remind me I need new glasses.

The plug symbol had nothing to do with being fully charged, and they dropped it in iOS 7.BrentOn Sep 25, 2013, at 8:07 AM, Daniel Engstrom wrote:
Anyone else noticed the battery indicator?
