Battery level indicator?

Hmmm.... some people report that doing a reset fixes a lot of "quirky" issues. This is where you hold the home button and the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears on the screen and then letting it start up. If that doesn't fix it, then its time to call a genius!

Yeah, that's the first thing I tried. Still didn't change the charging dilemma.
