OK, so what will be the best alternative here mates
Service Center? This will be the last recourse I guess.

its recomended to use always the last or latest fw, it does effect the batt standby and talktime aswell.

I read somewhere that even though these relatively newer lithium ion and lithium ion polymer batteries have a trigger that prevent users from further using the battery right before reaching the red zone, the battery still does discharge small trickles of its power even when not in use. I guess over time, it would eventually still run out below the red zone. Temperatures outside the recommended range also does damage to the battery, and so it's adviced that batteries which are not going to be used for some time be stored with a not lower than 40% charge, and one article even suggests storing it in a refrigerator (not freezer or chiller tho). Maybe the heat from the charging with something wrong in the phone's power/charging circuitry damaged the batteries as well. Another article/site also says that lithium batteries lifespans are not counted from the moment of first use or opening, but from the moment it comes out of the assembly line. Maybe the two batteries have similar manufacture dates, you could try the phone with a brand new battery before you have it opened up, i guess.

spot on johnpete.
However it is under-voltage while in use that damages the battery. When there is no current draw, the voltage is zero. Unless the battery is in use the under-voltage condition doesn't exist (quite different to zero voltage which means no electrical flow at all) . So as long as the very flat battery isn't used in it's last moments of charge (when the voltage drops drastically), then it will be okay, even if it loses further charge.
The reason batteries should be stored with 40% charge in a cool place is to help slow down the natural degradation of battery chemistry, this has nothing to do with the under voltage problem.
Well researched though...
Below is a good site for batt info:

oh, ok. so the trickle discharge when its off doesn't really affect it as long as it's not in use. thanks for the site, it even has info i didn't see before when i was looking for pointers on battery care.

never ever dry up your battery until flat @_@
Last time i was doing that but after i look at some article and they say u can charge the batter when it is 2/10 left .
It will destroy the batter when it is completed drained !!!!
Next time be more careful with batteries ^_^
and welcome to esato mates ^_^
