Lol anyone else just lost it as he said u might just be carrying a ticking bomb in ur pocket..

mine just started to swell 😭

This is actually a pretty good summary of the problem. Please have your phone checked people!

im pretty sure my old battery from 2018 got REALLY swollen because i kept it charging between 80-100%, then i changed it, however when it started to get swollen, my device wasnt overheating at all, it was like if it was just randomly getting swollen, but now im surely taking care of this battery from April

Well explained. I like your explaining very much.

I have seen three cases of swolen iPhone 3gs and 4 batteries. It always happened after trying to charge the phone which has been left in a drawer for months or years. It never exploded, just the gas is built slowly during charging but the battery is basically flat so it can't explode. This expansion can destroy the motherboard or LCD. Batteries can explode, though (it looks more like burning), if there is internal short circuit due to bad battery design, manufacturing defect or physical damage (like putting a nail in a fully charged battery) - there are videos of that on KZfaq. Bottom line, swolen battery after charging is the price to pay for just putting the phone in a drawer and not using it. :P

“My phone got fat”. geez dude phones have feelings too. 😞

Congrats,your phone is going to be a mother

100 % agree with you Why reckless do not worth doing

Thanks man for the good advice to not to use again that swollen battery!! I didn't thought of that and was planning to use it again after fixing it.

Hello.I have a battery swollen or it was, for wherever reason is not anymore.Is it ok if I try to use it?(and it was a bit swollen)

Thanks, dispose the old battery properly to protect our environment. Stay safe.

How much is the chance of my phone blasting? I mean my battery is a littĺe swollen. Im really scared now. Should i absolutely stop using it till i buy a new battery?

Not everything last forever, everything has it cycle. It's normal for your battery to swell up cause we didn't have advanced technology enough to store power. Best to replace the battery when you see a significant swelling and strange power off even when your phone haven't reach 0% yet.

We got a tablet last November, at first I didn't really used it then started to use it because of school. It was fine it really charges fast that's why i cant keep on track of it and its always hit a 100%. After few months I kinda noticed a bump at the back then my phone starts shutting down at different percents that's why I just returned it to its box to make it rest. Then I was gonna check it then it was bloated! Now I know! Thanks for this vid

I did this some time ago not know the consequences. I poke a hole in a swollen battery, released the gas and put some tape on the hole to isolate it back, the battery worked normally until one day it blew up and destroyed the phone's display. The motherboard survived but the display is the most expensive part of a phone and I was so angry this happened to me because if I knew I would have just replaced the battery. So do not poke holes in swollen batteries trying to fix them, they can't be fixed, just throw them to the garbage and buy a new one! This happened to me twice actually and this was the second time. The first time it was with a GPS and the poked battery didn't blow up BUT released some gas that partially damaged my GPS screen, it killed a few pixels here and there... I replaced the battery on my GPS with a Nintendo DS Lite battery which is Lithium POLYMER, MADE IN JAPAN, and that battery still works like new even today after many years. Lithium ION batteries are total garbage.

Swollen battery makes Battery Drains insanely Fast and Charge super slow? Mine charge 10% every 1 hour Rip

but If you have a battery in the back (the circular ones that can get taken out without dissasemblement, what does get swollen under the keyboard?)

remember when you can open the back of old phones like lenovo plastic phones i once dropped the betteri and it explode

my dad had a dead iphone 3gs, and he stored it on one of the shelves in the original box. I never really cared, until yesterday, where i noticed the box wasn’t fully closed. The battery has expanded so much that it had snapped the logic board.

Awesome vid man.

if your phone has swollen battery just wait and save up to buy a new one or change it,its more safe than carrying a ticking timebomb on your pocket

short and good answer: trying to fix it will kill you

Do you need to replace?? I cant

now i know thanks brother

I buyed my phone 2 or 3 years ago, it is a HUAWEI P Smart Pro, the battery got swallen sooo much that the case behind it that keeps the battery covered, got glued off, and is holding onto the phone only on one end while the other is completely off, i currently have no moeny to afford a new phone but i desperatelly need to keep in contact because of work, do you have any advice on how to keeo using it just for a little bit longer, or do you think its too dangerous and i have to stop using the phone?

my phone battery also started swelling. It didnt swell alot, but im still thinking to get a new battery

Mine got swollen and.. It is lock down and i cant buy new one

Me, watching this with a phone who has a swollen battery and can see the light shining through the side: *Interesting*

Should I replace it immediately even though it just starting to swell recently and the bulge not big?

I didn't notice the swell till I removed the case.

i did this a couple of minutes ago, i was startled at the hissing sound the gas makes as it escapes through the hole i made. the battery is from my pocket wifi and is extremely swollen. it's charging now after i cover the hole with some aluminum tape and im using it temporarily as a repeater. but after watching this video, i guess i have to be extra cautious about it

Is it safe to make some very small hole to my brand new battery? When it arrives at me its kinda swollen not too much but I can't close my cover also it has no charge so my phone won't recognize it at the first charge......

I am I think that’s a little bit too late for me I left my HTC one discharge for six months it’s on bulging It not look like this last time I saw it

Umm.. what do you mean so can i still use my swollen phone after i change my battery if it's possible?

Very informative, thank you

Used a heatsink or fans to cool your phone while charging especially at those new high watts chargers i have a rog 5 and it charges at 65w hyper charge it gets really hot while charging but no longer because i use the game fan to keep it cool and it helps protect the battery

Is it safe to use...my original battery got replace after 3month its not charging full n dying out before 30%...my screen bazzel is also popping out

There's a big bump on the back of my phone I bought a battery last year and it started dying at 70%🙁

Guys dont do that.. You can kill your phone. the battery can probably leak and corrode the internals

I had three known cases of swollen batteries only, and God knows I own an obscene number of cell phones because there is no used Market for them, in Western Europe at least: the original one in my Samsung J5 16, which swell after 6 years of use, kept working wonderfully but was replaced nevertheless, if only because it was pressing out the battery cover and could break its hooks; and both original batteries from both my Blackberry Q10s after nine years of use. They were immediately removed and new batteries ordered but I'm not sure if I will return these devices to service as they offer so little nowadays. One of these batteries was incredibly swollen, it had made a bump in the battery lid that was hidden by the case back. Fortunately the batteries were removable, otherwise woe of me and my Q10s!

what do i need to do for the time being because i'm running out of budget rn so i have to wait for next monthhh

Hey man wtf should I do, I just found my psp battery having a bulge that's been in my drawer for years sitting... My perants are away and it's raining outside (no car, can't take it anywhere), also don't have a fire extinguisher for an emergency. What should I do??

I'm locked up dude I'm trying this. This is all I got.

If your battery is swelling get rid of it immediately.

Is it ok to make hole the battery to fix it?

I just discovered My old iPod touch had a swollen battery, and it damaged the whole thing. Should I throw the whole thing away?

Will the phone still work thought right after a swollen battery? (I think my phone started getting fater ,it still works thought and l want to know if l it's just my imagination or the battery actually started getting swollen)

Is this rare? or this is common? I have a iPhone5 that has this I do not use it anymore and I can’t go to the repair shop. Is it ok to leave it be,?

Had this happen recently to an old iPhone, my problem is finding someone who recycles them so I can properly dispose of it. :/ No one wants to take a swollen battery

I don’t know if mine is but it feel different

This is my third time my phones battery is swollen

Liudas Butkus, What do you think? I tried the following method, used needle, electrical tape and superglue. Make sure to put on safety goggles and rubber gloves, do the following in open space: 1. Puncture battery bulge with needle, a tiny hole 2. hand press out the gas inside 3. seal the needle hole with electrical tape and superglue. Functions as good as new!

My phone is Samsung j2(2018) Is started swallow Is battery life over please reply sir

Im terrified of my phone now

I have a question. This is making me nervous because my phone is a little swollen, but I noticed today that it was gone! The back of my phone is flat again, what does that mean?

my old blackberry playbook was sitting in a cupboard untouched for 5 months and then I decided I wanted to finish this need for speed undercover level I hadn’t managed to beat. I looked through my basement frantically thinking I had lost it, and then I open the cupboard and it’s sitting on an angle and I’m like, “ok uh,, ok” I pick it up, the case is sticking out and the whole back has popped off and the battery is literally a circular tube.. lol (I had to throw it out :’( ) edit: this thing is ancient and has not been charged in a while… I have 5 other blackberry playbooks that I will be keeping an eye on… lol ) another edit: I got the absurd amount of blackberries from my father as he works at a university and the university did not want the blackberries anymore… )

I have an ipad but the battery charges normally and the percentage lasts forma long time. The screen is popping out from the upper right corner and a bit to the center.

so if i keep the battery off to long or to much it will swell

it makes a nice pillow JK, DO NOT USE SWOLLEN BATTERIES AS A PILLOW!!!

i didn’t use my power bank for months bc of covid and it started saying 80 then drop to 14. And etc. then i just hid it away for a few months and i went back to it now and it got so fat it broke the power bank..

Apple's popularity has made fast charging a necessity. Virtually all makers have made the battery non removable. Fast charging will degrade the battery substantially. You'll need to charge only to 80% and no lower than 40%. Tedious and time consuming, yes. Change the USB charger to a much lower current version. Example, the charger is rated at 2A (2000mA), change to a charger that is around 0.4A (400mA). Charge time will greatly increase. Standalone battery chargers for products with removal batteries, the procedure is the same. Having no charge percentage indicator, remove/stop the charge when charge is finished, do not keep charging. The lower charge rate will help prevent over charging.

I have a tablet and its side corner case is bit opened i tried to close it but its not, my brother said its battery is inflated

Is it considered normal for any battery to swell when it reaches the end of its expected life?

This happened to my old phone tho They said it was over used

wow this is very accurate

Mine doing the same thing I dont see how you fix this

i think i should get a new battery cuz I'll be still using this phone for at least 6 months probably, it's a huawei, you can't take the back off to replace something (i mean ofc you can open it up with screws, just like iphones), and because of corona i don't think i can get it fixed, i mean i can probably order a new battery, but i don't know if I'm actually capable of replacing it myself lol

I accidentally poked a hole in my phone battery with a small screwdriver. Some smoke came out and nothing more . I taped with electric tape tight and charged the phone. It seems to keep the temperature steady. But I am afraid it will swell soon

What happens when a battery is swollen? what does the chemicals of the battery chemicals expand or get bigger or what?

About the match your brand mobile use charger, keep it safe. Do not use other brand charger to your mobile.

is the gass dangerous

My phone just got inflated many months ago but now it's fixed

Mine was swollen twice, I believe the reason was that I played games while charging and the battery was always at 100%

Razer laptops are prone to battery bloating! On Reddit's Razer page there are a lot of users showing the battery bloating! Ridiculous as these laptops are very expensive!
