'Sometimes' rotating the battery in the holder (to

you can get a new battery...

Rotating the battery doesn't create heat of any note, nor does it
charge the battery in any way; it acts to 'wipe' the metal surfaces
that contact, allowing better electron flow to/from the battery, and it
often does help since contacts that aren't gold plated will oxidize
with time, restricting current flow.
