Re: White battery indicator on gp7 silver while plugged in and recording
[ New ]Hello, @vitalflash2712. Which firmware version is your HERO7 Silver on? The battery level indicator does not show up on the display screen when the camera is recording.

[ New ]@vitalflash2712. We are not getting a solid white icon for the battery indicator. Right after recording, we see a green battery icon that changes to a green battery icon with the lightning symbol almost immediately.
How are you charging the camera? Which power source is it plugged into? Also, are you using the original GoPro USB-C charging cable?

[ New ]Everything thing I'm connecting it to is legitimate. I'll try a different outlet.
Hmm?
Someone must know what a white battery icon with lightning / hourglass means? Lol

Re: White battery indicator on gp7 silver while plugged in and recording
[ New ]Thanks, @vitalflash2712. Yes, please try a different power source. I tried with both a power bank (the GoPro Power Pack) and through an adapter through a wall outlet and I am not getting the white battery indicator.
It is true that the camera does not show charging the moment the recording is stopped. There is a second or two gap from a solid green to a green with the flash/lightning icon.
@fishycomics. By any chance, would you have input on this? Is the white battery indicator something you have encountered before? Thanks!
