Yeah, I hard-wired N9's battery to my old Nokia C5, no problem with charging at all 
But not everyone has either courage or tools to disassemble the N9. Messing with flasher is simply easier and also kind of safer. You're risking your data, not whole phone/battery.

This looks risky, even you have skills/knowledge. Just a little 'oops' and ...
Using flasher is not risky at all, using:
which should start the battery charging (just leave USB connected).

Code:

"sudo flasher -i" just reads and displays the device version, it does not start charging the device.
You need to inject the APE kernel to the device to make it start charging, and the easiest way to do that is to push it to the device by "sudo flasher -F main.bin -f" command...
There are alternatives, actually it would not be necessary to initiate flashing, just to push APE in and make it happy to keep up the connection, which by default means the flasher program stays active on the computer.
I actually made a special bootkernel that does the same thing without requiring the aid of flasher by ripping the rootFS out of APE and beating it into the right form
(my intention here is to integrate ithe BME charging logic into ubiboot, but unfortunately I have not had time to complete that yet...)

How about flasher -r ? Does that work? I think I've read somewhere that it should.

What about the CTRL-c thing then?

However, in this case it is not so, to get the device in charging mode you just have to feed APE to it, there's no other way. And just infoking "flasher -i" does not do that. (and neither does "flasher -b", it has to be a command that starts the actual flashing scheme...)

I am skilled enough to play with electronics and to deny safety warnings (as a hobbyist you can deny such warnings ), but this seems quite dangerous to try. A short circuit is easily made and you will wreck your beloved phone easy.
The flasher method seems to be the safest. But it's always nice to see some courage like this.
(woops, didnt read the entire topic..)

You need a lithium ion charger, I had Nitecore i2 for 18650 type batteries and multimeter cables. Just attach cables to charger and hold measuring tips on battery terminals for 10-15 minutes carefully avoiding short circuiting and reverse polarity. I had battery attached on the phone while doing this, take it out if you like to have lower failure risk.
