IPhone 5 battery gauge not working?

My iPhone 5 was purchased in April 2013. The battery gauge worked until about June 2013. It either says it is at 100% or at 1%. There's usually no in between. If the phone dies when the battery gauge says 1% I have to wait three hours for it to turn on when plugged in. I went to watch a movie when my phone said 100% and it charged for two hours. The gauge changed to 1% while plugged in! What should I do?

You could be having problems with the battery or something else. If you can take it to an Apple Store, they can diagnose the problem. The batteries don't last forever. They can only be recharged a certain number of times. You may need a new battery.

  • Why battery percentage indicator in iphone is not showing accurate battery? Let its being charged, let it reached 97 percent, it will still showing charging, but if i off/on it, it will show 100 percent, and it shuts off when it reaches 4 percent, please tell what's problem? and as above i said, if i go to "usage" it will show time charged last time:0 mins standby:0mins but at top right its 99percent and is showing charging?

  • IPhone not fully charging and home button not working? My iPhone 4 only charges to 10% and stops. After it turns off it charges back to 10% and stops so it doesn't even get passed that. How do I fix this? Also home button doesn't work I have to turn my phone off to get out of an app
  • Iphone Do Not Disturb Not working? I downloaded the new IOS for my Iphone 4s and set the Do Not Disturb function up to come on at 9 pm and go off at 7:30 am. I see the moon symbol on the screen so it shows the DND is on, and I have set 3 numbers as favorites, but the favorites are still not ringing through. I missed a call the other night from a favorite, didn't ring, didn't light up the screen, nothing. Am I missing something?
