Discharged battery with flash light bulb. Problems, plzHelp

Well I read this BIG 5 page post on how the Universal shuts down at 30+-% and mine has just done that after owning it for about 8 months.. I read someone discharged the lith-ion battery with a flash light bulb. I did the same @3.6volts and the battery went to ZERO. Now when I plug it in the wall charger it resets over and over without completely booting up and self charging (at the imate welcome screen). Also If I plug it into the usb to charge it just flashes red light rapidly kinda like a 4way stop light but slightly faster. Did I screw up the battery? Did a hard reset with no luck too.

Well there are four connector plates on the battery and I only discharged two of the main plates. Forget the two little plates also have cells and needs discharging.. I crossed them somehow with paper clips and for some reason I got voltage again on all cells! So the unit is back to SUB normal (turning off at 40%-+, sucks!) Time to trial a new battery!

wow you almost killed your battery
first by discharging it to zero (you meant 0 volts?!?! don't allow it to go below 3 volts!)
then shorting it.. (if i interpreted your desc properly)
:shock:
