Battery connections

[dave52355]

I can't afford to replace my phone that I use with my wheelchair to control wifi enabled equipment plus texting and talking. Looking at the battery connection I see that 3 of the contacts are bent down and not making contact with the battery. Does anyone know what the 3 contacts on the left are for. I'm not sure this is contributing to my phones slow demise but I suspect bending them up could not hurt unless they snap off or something.

Thanks

nah they are actually movable...they tend to move when ur replace or take out the battery...so put them back into place n see if u see a difference
