Windows 10: Charging light blinks to red and then to white, then where battery shows percantage goes to...

I've been having this problem and it keeps popping up a blue screen saying "Your battery is running low" then the battery turns to 100% I tried to fix it but it's starting to get frustrating now, I don't know what to do about it.

Toshiba Sattellite Battery

It does sound the the "old" one may have a fault in its internal charging circuitry. Don't know what your exact model is, but it's probably similar to my old Toshiba Satellite L750. I have 6 LEDs, indicating:

1. DC IN: (white/amber) white=powered up, flashing amber=fault condition
2. Power: (white/amber) white=turned on, pulsing amber=sleep mode
3. Battery: (white/amber) white=charged, amber=charging, flashing amber=low battery warning.
4. (white) HDD activity
5. (white) SD card activity
6. (amber) WiFi on

Black Screen with battery icon and red bar with notification light blinking red??? WTH is going on!?!?!?!?!?

So today after coming back from playing basketball I went to my phone and it was working perfectly. Then, after like 10 minutes I came back and my phone was completely blank and it wouldn't turn on, so i took out the battery and then put it back in and
put it on charge. Then it turned on with the HTC sign and then the screen went black with a battery icon with a red bar in it and the notification light was blinking red. This happened like 3-4 times every time i turned the phone on and off. Then the screen
went white with a red, blue, and green bar that had code written on it. So i pulled out the battery and turned it back and then the black screen came back up and i put the phone on charge and after 5 minutes the phone started working again. I would like
to know why this happened so i can avoid this next time. By the way my phone was sitting outside in the sun while i was playing basketball, i think this my be the reason but im not sure so please help me out. I have a HTC Surround.
