I took the battery out of my Z30 but in the process of doing that (since there is SO much tape/glue) it bent a bit. I'd say on the bottom 1/3 part of it, it bent about 20degrees.

I flattened it back out ... but is this still ok/safe to use? There are no rips/tears in the cover of the battery. It's just a bit wrinkly now where the bend was.

50/50 shot. No one here can say for sure.

Well specifically I mean like is this something that could be dangerous? Or, is it a case where it's either going to work fine or not at all ?

Learn from Samsung. Don't play around with batteries lol. Don't use it. Get a proper new one.

It could be--I would not take a chance with it.

Yes there's lots on Ebay or Amazon. I bought mine from Ebay and it was in brand new condition.

And thanks for all of the input everyone. I did try it on an older phone (for fun) and it still worked fine.. but the other battery I took out of the newer phone I bent so bad that sparks started flying out of it. LMAO. Yeah I won't be reusing that one.
