I once had a battery problem but it wasnt servere. Back in the golden days when the Nokia 3310 was still a heat. I rceieved a call on a hot and sunny day. The battery forced itself out of the phone.
Luckily it was still far from the ear. It burnt my sim an some of the components. :sad

It wasn't the mobile phone battery that killed the man:
Man charged with manslaughter in "exploding battery" case
In one of the more bizarre turns we've seen stories take, new information has come to light in the recent exploding battery death we reported on. It turns out that the LG battery which had initially been blamed for the "accident" wasn't the cause at all, rather, a co-worker of the victim has admitted to hitting the man with a 15-ton hydraulic rig while driving in reverse, and has been charged with manslaughter. Kwon Young-sup, who had originally reported that he had heard an explosion and discovered the man's body, has now told police that he invented the story as a cover-up for an accident. So, you can now return to placing calls on your LG without fear -- but watch your back on the job-site.

I think the odds of actually being killed by an exploding mobile phone battery under normal use are only a little shorter than spontaneous human combustion, which does actually happen but you don't see people carrying buckets of water around with them just in case. I'm still keeping my phone in my pocket. I'll take the risk of blowing my balls off.
