Re: battery will not charge

Assuming that there is a working power supply at the wall socket, then one or more of the following is at fault: the plug from the charger into the wall socket; the charger; the USB lead; the USB port in the phone; the battery; or something deeper inside the phone. You'll have to eliminate them one at a time.

Evidently the calibration is off. Let the phone run until the phone tells you to plug in the charger. Turn the phone off, plug in the charger and let it charge overnight. Turn the phone oon and you should see a 100% charge level. If not, repeat once more. If that doesn't fix it, whether paying to get it fixed depends on 1) whether it bothers you (it should) and 2, what the phone is worth. It may cost more to fix it than to replace it.
