It does look like a diode to me but shouldn't it be connected the other way round with the resistor? I though that BSI needs 100K resistor from GND and on the picture it looks like the resistor is connected to GND...

Your "minus-cable" and gnd will be the same. I'm not sure though can you feed 5V straight in from the charger. Remember that the battery is rated at 3.7V but you can see voltage ranges from 3.2V to 4.2V... Can anyone confirm if there's any sort of voltage regulator in the phone and it's safe to feed 5V straight to battery pins?
