Phone Not Charging? How to Fix a Faulty Charging Port

A loose or dirty charging port is one of the most common “won't charge” complaints. Start with safe cleaning, then decide if a port replacement is needed.

01Rule out the cable and charger

Try a known-good cable and wall adapter before opening the phone.

02Clean lint carefully

Use a non-metal tool (plastic pick or wooden toothpick) — never a metal pin that can short the port.
