Dell Portable Battery LED flashes Orange 4 times then Green once

This LED flash pattern, Orange, Orange, Orange, Orange, Green (Repeats) indicates a internal failure of the Battery. Pressing the charge indicator button on the battery (If equipped) will give a 1 3 5 LED on indication which also indicates a failure in the battery.
The battery may still function, but at less than optimal performance and will have a progressively shorter functional life until it dies.
The only way to resolve the issue is to replace the battery.

battery light 4 times is red and one time green in all the time

the battery LED is indicating an internal battery failure. While the battery may still work, the LED indication will not change until you replace the failing battery. It can be an indication of a Failed Cell, low voltage etc. Something in the battery is no longer meeting specification and that triggers the LED indication.

ONLY RESOLVE, NEW BATTERY
