Battery - Charge Complete

When I charge my battery there is no way of telling when it is complete or not (my old phone use to say it on the screen when it was complete).

Has anyone else noticed this with the Dare or does yours say charge complete when it's done?

the battery flashes up the bars (1,2,3,4) when its charging. when its complete it will say "charging complete" real fast then it goes away, but the battery flashed all the bars together (one whole battery flash) to signal its complete, just like most of the other lg's....

hope this helps. any more questions feel free to ask

its under SOUND SETTINGS...SERVICE ALERTS....last option in that submenu (CHARGE COMPLETE -- ON/OFF)

I have it set to ON but it doesnt beep or make any sound when the charging is completed.

Yah... I found it right after my post...

NOW... Did some testing... You ain't gonna believe this...

1-Charge your phone fully...

2-Unplug charging cord...

3-Turn phone OFF...

4-Plug in Charging Cord (keep holding phone)

5-After 10-15 Seconds the phone will "beep" 3 times and put up a "Charging" graphic...

6-Place the back of the phone hear your ear...

7-Because the phone is already fully charged, within 30-60 seconds it will make a tiny chirp (but clearly audible with the back of the phone held near your ear) and will display the "Charge Complete" graphic...

This "Alert" is actually funny... (Do they REALLY test this stuff...???)

It will never say charge complete when powered on. Only when you charge when powered off will it say charge complete. I guess it's cause you can't charge something all the way if it's using power? You should charge when powered off when ever possable it charges in half the time

Not true. Mine does flash "charge complete" with the battery sign. It only flashes complete for a few seconds and then it goes away...you can then see its completed on the battery level located on the top right, it will keep flashing (when plugged in).

Mine also does this. It says charge complete very briefly, but it has never made the charge complete noise that it is supposed to . I have the option on but I have never heard anything. OH well, not a big deal. I know it's fuly charged when the all 4 battery bars are all on and flashing at the same time.

ok i got a pretty cool background image on the dare. its like a solar eclipse but with the large analog clock it makes it look like the clock is the eclipse, its cool. so i changed my charging screen to off. THEN went to bed. i woke up and looked at my phone and to my suprise there was a big a$$ logo on the screen that said "charge complete" it stayed there till i hit the screen...

hope this helps
