How to tell if iPhone is charging on 3rd Party Hardware?

I have a 3rd party audio dock at work that I have used to listen to my iPod on. The iPhone does not appear to be compatable with it for playing back music, but I was wondering if there is a way to tell if it is charging my iPhone if I plug it in there.

The screen I currently have is an almost dead battery with a small lightning bolt on the bottom of the screen. The phone has been sitting in the dock for about 20-30 minutes and I have not seen the battery level increase at all.

This screen I am looking at is rather vague and I am not sure what it is telling me. The only screen I am familiar with is the one that has the dock cable and the lightning bolt on the bottom.

Is the phone charging?

If you look at your battery icon, does it show a plug in it. If it has the plug, the the phone is on external power.
