I have a p3700 3.7v 900mah battery oem, and I hooked it up to a small fan motor (I know it was stupid) and now it won't charge, and when I put it in my phone, it tries to start, gets to the touch diamond boot screen, then turns off and tries to turn on again. I don't know what to do... :( help anyone? Can I revive it?

1)Hard reset
2)Look at the image I made for you.I dont know how safe is it to use but,this method is used for old batteries in order to work again.
3)if you have guarantee,you may have to use it:(
Just dont tell them what really happened:p

Thanks, will try #2, hard reset doesn't make the battery charge.
Much cleaner than cutting usb cord and take red and black wire out.

Just buy a new battery. Li-ion batteries are cheap enough but have a limited lifetime and are easy to damage. ;)

The cheap 1$ batteries that arrive from hong kong and risk exploding while taking two - three weeks to get here? No thank you, on to option #2
