Go Here: If an 'Accessory may not be Supported Alert' Appears on your Apple device - Apple Support

As it Reads: "This alert might appear when your accessory is damaged, isn't Apple-certified or supported by your device, or your device has a damaged or dirty port. Learn what to do next."

Time for a New Battery or a New iPhone:

The battery is apparently damaged. So, seek out a new battery or a new iPhone. Being so old of a device, I recommend you look into getting a new iPhone, rather than just purchasing a new battery.
