Method and apparatus for displaying battery fault notifications on wireless devices
First Claim
1. A mobile device, comprising:
- a display;
a battery cell or battery pack; and
a memory having stored thereon identifying information for identifying the battery cell or battery pack; and
a processor, operatively connected to the memory, configured to;
receive a notification sent from a server to the mobile device, comprising a fault parameter specifying at least one battery cell or battery pack affected by a fault; and
compare the fault parameter in the notification with the identifying information stored in the memory to determine if the identifying information is within the fault parameter, and if so, display a fault notification on the display of the mobile device indicating that the battery cell or the battery pack is affected by the fault.

Abstract
A battery pack for a mobile device, a method for processing fault notifications for a mobile device, and a mobile device for processing fault notifications are described. The battery pack comprises a housing, at least one battery cell within the housing, and a memory accessible by an application of the mobile device, the memory having stored thereon identifying information for identifying at least one of the battery pack and battery cell. Notifications are sent to mobile device including fault parameters for identifying at least one battery pack and/or battery cell affected by a fault. If the identifying information is within the fault parameters, displaying a fault notification on the display of the mobile device.
