Your battery or your charger is bad.  The red battery with the line is your dead battery icon.  If you've had the battery a year, it could need replacing.  Check it on a car charger.  If it charges there then it's your charger. A good place to get a replacement for either is Cellphoneshop.net.  I have used them for over 5 years.  They are the cheapest you can find but they come from overseas and takes about a week for delivery.  But you can get 2-3 batteries for the price of one here and they are excellent batteries.  Chargers run about $5.  I've bought both there for my Storm.
