I am using ubunutu, It was fine till previous day but the next day when i plug laptop charger and turn laptop on for a while orange light(which indicate device is charging) get on for while then goes off. After that i try reseting battery using a pin. It didnt work either. Again i replug and turn on this time it got turned but still the battery charging indicator get on for while then again indecator goes off, but laptop keeps working when i plug in charge even if indicator is off, then goes off as soon as i plug out charge .Not sure what went wrong. Even power/battery option in settings shows nothing

    Wow amazing , within just a single year battery was damaged. All i did was nothing mostly just used vscode and browsers also always kept laptop on power saver mode. still such issue. I have found some other issues similar like mine. It worked after removing old battry and replacing with new.
