Charging port problems like slow charging or not charging at all are commonly seen in cellphones after frequent use. When your device experiences charging problems, first thing you should do is to check whether the charger is an original or not. Using a non-original charger you risk causing damage to your device and yourself.

Having dust or lint in your phone’s charging port can also prevent charging. In this event, what you’ll need to do is to clean the USB port with some household tools like: a needle, a toothpick, a bobby pin or a Q-tip. Rubbing alcohol can also help it evaporates quickly, and is always good for cleaning electronic equipment.
