[Q] broken battery topic

hello everyone haven't been in this forum for a long time but I hope to change that. I bought a new photon on Craigslist super cheap from a Guy that tried pulling the battery out and broke it. is there a way I can use a battery from another phone to make sure the phone still works before I spend money on a battery only to find out its bricked.

also what size screwdriver does the battery take?
