What's wrong with my phone battery ?

I just had a brand new battery replacement back in January for some odd reason the screen looks like you this. I plugged it in almost every outlet in my room the only one it works well in is in my glow in the dark putty charger. If I plug it in any other outlet and be on it the battery chargers backwards. We lived in this trailer for 17 years maybe it's the outlets they're kind of old. Is there something wrong with my phone ? Why does the battery settings look like this and how can I fix this ?

    My wife had the same problem...get a new charger. Or smash your phone to smithereens. Welcome to the 'Pit of Sarcasm' Bwaahahahaha.

    You could have the poles reversed in your socket ring main or even a wiring fault in your consumer unit...
    Try another battery charger ,but dis'charge your battery fully before plunging it in...You could then try charging it in someone else's home.....or take it in to a shop for them to look at if you're not competent....

    My dad calls me Short Circuit as I was always blowing fuses when stripping became a chore...
    I had a lot to show for laying bare the ends and getting the rubber grommets in place.... ....:)D
