Is there such a thing as a complete charge? My phone, put in the doc, never says it's got a complete charge. The green battery is present and I guess it looks fully charged (green all the way to the right) but that's the only indicator, ie, it doesn't "say" fully charged, or 100%, or anything.

Is this standard? If not, what's it supposed to do when fully charged?

When it is fully charged your battery icon will have a plug symbol instead of a lightning bolt and your big battery meter will be completly full and have a green glow to it.

Search the forums, there are many threads about this.

The battery indicator in the upper right hand corner should have a plug in it when fully charged. When it is charging it should be a lightning bolt.

EDIT: Dang few seconds too late....

I noticed that when my phone is fully charge, the battery meter does not have any glow at all, it looks as it was not charge fully, although, the battery icon show the plug in.

This is a common bug. I'm hoping Apple will fix this with an update. I've spoken to the Apple Geniuses as well, and they are advising to wait for the update, unless you've bought the phone in the past two weeks...then they said they'd exchange it.

I don't have a plug or glowing after it charges. I let it charge all night the battery looks full but still has the lightning bolt.
