This means that the phone cannot read the battery state, make sure that there are no bent pins!! if no bent pins battery sounds like its dead....

Sorry for digging up the old thread but I have the same problem. The only way that I can boot the phone up is to connect the phone to computer via cable and use "vol down + power" then release it right before it goes into fastboot mode. Once it boots up everything is fine except for the battery indicator with a question mark. Is there anyway to fix this problem? Is it software or hardware related issue?

Try to flash different rom then if problem persists may be its your hardware fault or your battery is dead. Try to contact nearest dell service then.
