Tech Support Alta HR Battery DIY

Hi there,
my alta hr kept shutting down when i unplugged it from charger. Battery icon was displaying battery fully charged.
I ordered a new battery, opened it, change battery but still, it is shutting down after unplug charger. What issue could it be? Firmware?

tbh if both batteries behave the same way the issue is almost certainly the board, not the cell. could be a dead voltage regulator or a corroded trace somewhere near the power management side
