Look here.

I would be very cautious about applying power directly to a Li-ion battery - explosions (with acid burns) and fire can result.

Soldering these devices is also challenging and requires special irons, solder with lots and lots of practice. (From your question I think you may already have learned this).

A charge adapter costs between 20 and 80$ US. Go the safe route and get a replacement.
