I found a perferct and simple solution:

Here was my solution. I looked at the battery which is 3.7volts and decided to charge it direct

1) Remove the battery from the phone!
2) Take 3 fresh AAA batteries in series (total 3 x 1.5V = 4.5V)
3) Connected the (+) wire to (+) on the battery
4) Connected the (-) wire to (-) on the battery
5) Hold this in place for 60 seconds.
6) Put the battery in your phone
7) Switch on phone and start charging (via USB)


This solution worked on my BL-5C Nokia battery unused for almost one year. I used 3 AA batteries fo 120 seconds.
