    How to revive Li Ion battery which was not used for like a year?

    Hi guys.
    I have this old netbook Asus Transformer T100 which I was not using for probably more then a year.
    It really had great battery back last time it was used (lasted like
    cca 10 h of its complete usage)
    Tonight I wanted to turn it on but could not, battery was at 0% and to 100% charged pretty quickly and lasted only 15 minutes until complete discharge (back then I know it lasted like 10 hours).
    Please tell me there is hope.
    Now I am trying to discharge it again and charge just to try revive some cells in it if they are not complely dead.
    Now I know this is old laptop but I have like same old tablets which I do care about and last me few hours of battery screen on time.
    Is there a hope for this sweet boy?

    Okay so far I did drain and charge battery in 3 cycles, so far showing battery health of a 32 % and was 2 %.
    I will do few more charge7/discharge cycles, wish me luck...

      Dell E6400 PT434 type Battery Charging Stuck at 1%. Battery Pinouts?
      by Bowline
      My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?

      Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?

      My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
      The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.
      I have tried multiple different Dell power adapters. My Dell...

      Vostro 3400 (LA-K033P) won't charge battery, everything else ok
      by techfreak9356
      I bought a Vostro 3400 motherboard (LA-K033P) to upgrade over my damaged Inspiron 5593 (LA-J091P) board. Everything else is ok except for the battery. This battery I am using now is already a replacement one since I disposed of the bloated original one. Back in the Inspiron 5593 motherboard, the battery charges fine and is identified just fine. However, with the upgraded motherboard, suddenly the replacement battery is labeled as "Not a dell battery". When I borrow a similar battery from my colleague (which did not have replacements yet), it is identified and charges just fine.

      ISL88739AHRZ ISL88739 Laptop Battery Charger Datasheet
      by Document Archive
      The ISL88739 & ISL88739AHRZ are a highly versatile combo battery charger
      configurable for operating as either a Hybrid Power Boost (HPB)
      charger or a Narrow VDC (NVDC) charger, supporting 2-, 3-, or
      4-cell batteries. Both configurations allow the battery to work with
      the adapter together to supply the system load when it exceeds
      the adapter capability, referred to as system Turbo mode. HPB
      charger configuration reverse-boosts battery energy to the system
      bus to help the adapter provide the system power in Turbo mode.
      NVDC charger configuration...

      Strange battery present behaviour in Lenovo Legion 5-15ARH05 mb model nm-d041
      by ferah831208
      Hello guys, i need help with this problem, I have a NM-D041 mobo, it came with low impedance in 3v linear regulator rail, the cause was a damaged EC controller ITE8227e-192. I ordered a new one and replaced it. This laptop have a different chip for keyboard management and it8227e pins for programming ITE chips are not accesible through keyboard interface, I flashed it using i2c interface pins with vertyanov programmer because laptop was dead and SPI flash didn't have power (only 3v EC) so it couldn't access firmware stored in SPI memory. I read SPI and extracted it8227 firmware from original BIOS...
