Hello,
My s4 no longer charges correctly. I think the end part of my cable is bent as I have to push the cable up for the phone to charge or turn it around. My cable has been doing this for a couple a days now since I dropped my bag on it. I have tried using other old cobbled and they work except they charge extremely slowly. I have tried bending it back and this works for a while and then just bends back to the not normal position. Please let me know you know how to fix this problem.
Thank you.

Just bought an A500 and I noticed that I can wiggle the charging plug back and forth a little. Anyone else have this issue, or did I buy a defective tablet?
mine is also loose.
two loose charger plugs
I'm on my second a500 and both have had loose charger ports.
Does it interrupt charging when you wiggle it?

no loss because it is loose

It does not affect charging. It is just a little "wiggley".
I'm not sure I would be concerned, not all plugs are designed to fit tight.

Agreed. A little wiggle isn't necessarily a bad thing. As long as it's not loose to the point of intermittent connectivity or just plain'ol falling out then it's fine.
Okay im really thinking the stock chord sucks sometimes itll charge and sometimes it won't like it would stay on the same percent for a while or even go down n when it does start charging it take a while anybody else with me on this? I tried another chord and it charged fine but i lost that chord but i know my phone isnt the issue

Mine charges faster with the cord that comes with the phone then with a universal cord tbh. Maybe its is somehowe defective.
I had that happen to an older phone that I had, cord just got wore out or something. But I haven't had any problems with the one on my nexus 4, I am sure that you can pick up a very cheap one almost anywhere though, even gas stations have them I think

My cord was working well until the phone slid off my table and landed on the connector lol. (Yeah that glass back is slippery as heck.) Got a bumper and a wireless charger now so no more of those problems.

Hello,
I have my phone S4 since launch and today I have noticed my USB cable (retail) turning to a bit yellow black at the tips of the usb.
I show on the red part where the USB cable is going to be yellow/dark
It is possibly of burning or dirty?
What i should do thanks.

I don't know if it is my monitor my eyes or i simply can't see anything wrong because there isn't ...
I can see it (off colour)
Its dirty
Saftey devices will trip long before this usb cable burns.
No need to worry just clean it.

More photos here for you can see it more clearly. It's on the both tips of the usb charger side and phone side for usb.
I tried to clean also he won't go

I wouldn't worry about it.
It is common for some white cables to turn to a yellow colour

Okay thanks mate but my friend have a s4 her usb isn't yellow like mine
I'm more afraid any day I will see my s4 burned by this and if this happen the warranty will work?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk
Anyone to know if i can trade the USB/Charger back to the warranty?
this does not look good, that to me looks for sure like the cable is burning.
Have you tried touching cable while charging? Is it getting hot?
Another thing to check is, is the area of discolourasion either really soft or really hard in comparison the the "normal" part of the cable or a new cable?
If so then I'd strongly suggest getting a new cable and never using the cable again, cause if it is faulty, there is a chance of fire.
All Assuming of course it actually is faulty.

When he charging the part of the cable aren't getting so hot. Just the charger himself is hot and the phone. After to charge to 100%, he cut the charge and he isn't hot.
Well I touch while cable when charging. He is not so hot. Just normal.
I'll buy a new charger and new cable for my device so thanks for your advice mate.

Edit: Contacted Samsung / Center repair. Apprently it's just dirty from them.
Hi guys
i don't know if it was the case since day 1 but i realized that when i plug the x pure to the charger included, once the tip is plugged in the phone i can slightly move it left and right (not a lot) . On the other phone i had before wasn't the case.
Do you have the same or no?
Thats pretty normal.
As long as it plugs in and charges the phone, and doesn't slip out easily, then it's fine. I wouldn't worry about it.
Many times they start tight and loosen up.
