Method and apparatus for displaying battery fault notifications on wireless devices
First Claim
1. A battery pack for a mobile device, comprising:
- a battery cell; and
a memory accessible by an application of the mobile device, and having stored thereon identifying information identifying at least one of the battery pack and the battery cell;
wherein the mobile device is configured to;
receive a notification from a server, comprising fault parameters identifying at least one battery pack and/or battery cell affected by a fault; and
compare the fault parameters in the notification with the identifying information stored in the memory to determine if the identifying information is within the fault parameters, and if so, display a fault notification on a display of the mobile device.
