Well, I remember how it happened in the last summer: my old Jolla got in a boot-loop and completely drained the battery. Wouldn't charge after that.

I have also rescued one battery from that as it somehow miraculously started charging after-boot-loop drain (had to plug and unplug the charger several times however before it accepted current). The battery worked fine after that and that battery still works.

Do you think the time it has spent completely drained makes the battery dangerous to use?

EDIT: I also observed today that when you put a completely drained battery in a Jolla phone and it won't charge (led blinks red), next time you put a battery in that it agrees to charge the phone always boots into SFOS. It doesn't stay in the charging screen. Don't know if this plays any part in this.
