I ended up heating up the battery with a hair dryer for a good 5 minutes, then putting it back into the phone, with the cable already plugged in. I let it sit there for a good 20 minutes. Works fine.
You have to get the battery pretty hot for this to work, but don't go crazy. I think it may explode if you go to far lol

Woah... I've heard of cooling down hard drives to potentially recover lost data, but heating up batteries to make them charge again? That's a new one on me.
