I tried this trick on my Nokia 1110i and a Nokia 3200 also and it worked for me. Hopefully it'll help you out too in some situation. Note that this will only work if you have one bar of charge or more showing on the charge display.
All you have to do is follow these steps :-
- Switch off your phone and take out the battery.
- Now insulate the MIDDLE terminal temporarily. You can do this by using a thin (but not too thin) piece of plastic paper. Fold it so it's just broad enough to cover only the middle terminal but not any of the others.
- Hold that plastic paper firmly and put in the battery so the middle terminal is insulated and then keep it there. DO NOT remove it.
- Now, with the phone in this state, switch it on and voila!!! You should be seeing the charge bar full.
However the battery isn't actually fully charged, even if it shows such. But the phone will serve you for some more time, depending on the kind of phone it is and the number of features in it. I get about 2-3 hours more talktime on my Nokia 1110i after this trick.
NOTE : Be warned though. This isnt something that you actually should be doing. So use it only in case of an emergency, because, once again depending on the phone, there may be adverse effects. But don't worry, a few times done rarely won't hurt.
The credit for this trick goes to a friend of mine, a future electrical engineer, Arin Samajhdar.
