Hi,
We had this experience in Lesotho where we were rarely working directly
from the mains. However, if the firmware is not installed, the message
will appear on each subsequent boot. I am not sure that the battery
charge is an issue. The firmware installs when the laptop detects that
it is running from an AC adapter.

When reflashing to one of the newer builds; i.e., 12.1.0 or newer, be sure to
use a fully charged battery and a plugged in power adapter when reflashing. The
new builds will upgrade the firmware automatically if the battery is fully
charged. If it is not, during the end of the reflash process it will say
something like "cannot get new firmware" continuing to update with old
firmware. If you are not watching the screen you might not see this.
And, I always check the system date and reset it (from the root terminal per
instructions on the Fix ClockWiki page) before reflashing. That has solved the
"stuck on the grey dots" problem.
