i tried hard restart and soft restart and still nothing .. will the board know what the battery has charged and shut off before anything goes wrong? i dont want to blow my battery up.

Let it charge up once fully and the meter will set itself or go to Device Monitor->Diagnostics->Set Charge Estimate to set the current charge level.

You're not in any danger.

Given that it's at 3.76V while charging, 25% sounds about right, honestly.
That said, the charging code does not read the battery meter. It looks at the cell voltages (and a few other things, such as the board temperature, USB current and voltage...).

The LiPo pack we tested gets 4.20V at 100% and 3.65V at 7.6% when not under load.
LiPo packs are better in this way than 18650s from what I've seen. A LiPo pack will hold its voltage quite well until it is nearly drained.
