offers to display both percentage and Time. http://bjango.com/mac/istatmenus/
When running SL, you could get the old free version. However, it does not contain the battery menulet: http://mac.brothersoft.com/istat-menus-2.0.html
To recalibrate your iPhones battery, you should:
- Use the iPhone until it shuts off due to low battery.
- Charge it, without interruptions, to full charge (100%).
- Reset the iPhone by Holding Home and the Power buttons at the same time. Ignore the Slide to Power off, and let the iPhone restart itself.
And for the notifications, as far as I know, no such thing can be achieved without jailbreaking. Cydia's app LowPowerBanner, for instance, should do the trick, though.

Best Answer
iOS 4 and later natively provide a setting to toggle display of remaining battery percentage in the status bar of iPhone/iPad/iPod touch.
Apple Knowledge base article Show the battery percentage on your iPhone or iPad.
iPhone X cannot display the same in the status bar due to presence of the notch. To view remaining battery percentage on iPhone X, simply swipe-down from top-right corner of the device to open Control Centre to view the reading on-screen. A brief video with the action can be viewed in the CNET article iPhone X: How to view your battery percentage.
