Hi,
I hope you all doing well , I have a big problem with my Nokia 5 , Days ago he started pausing charge randomly , I thought it was a virus that ruined the soft so i did hard reset but it didn't get solved , so i i searched the internet about the problem and found an article talking about dust and oxidation that can interfere with the charging process , so i cleaned it well the micro USB port with alcohol and a needle and it worked and he charged to 43 % from 12% but unfortunately he came back to the same problem and every time i have to put some alcohol and clean it so it can charge . I know it's weird but any one has any solutions ?
Thanks a lot for your time and i appreciate any help .
Had the same experience, problem with mine was replacing the charging port board.
Can be ordered online though AliExpress and it's very cheap

I got my elfin for about 3 years now and today it stopped charging. It won't charge at all with any usbcable nor the wall-charger. The led doesn't turn on. I think the usb jack is broken, but all the pins seem fine. Does anyone have any idea what to do?
If you say the USB jack is gone? did you try conn ur elfin to the computer? is it getting detected?
remove the battery, wait for few minutes, put it back (DO NOT TURN ON ELFIN) and put on charge.
If the USB jack is really broken then you can use a universal battery charger and transfer your files and activesync via bluetooth (only slower)

That didn't work. The computer doesn't detect it at all, I've tried several USB cables.

Well yes, that is the only thing I could think of, but I have none of those. They are fairly expensive to try if you're not even sure.
May be that light is not working properly.
Jus chk whether u see "Charging" in Power settings available in settings -> system.
If it says charging then ur light might have a problem.

I can't check anything, the battery is empty. That's why I think the USB is the cause and not the battery being dead, because it was already near empty when I saw it 'alive' for the last time.
I have the same problem.
Is the battery broken or the phone?
tried another battery
same result
now i'm waiting a tattoo
omg...currently my elfin behave the same way...unfortunately i don't have any other battery to try on
is it possible that your elfin one day just completely stop working? no life whatsoever???
i just can't charge my elfin at all...and yes the battery completely gone
what to do...what to do... *sigh
My Elfin did this last year. The problem for me is the contact pin used for charging in the mini USB jack on the bottom of the phone was squished.
If you look at the bottom edge of the phone with the screen facing the ground then you should see 5 contact pins along the top edge of the mini USB connector. The contact pin on the far left is the charging pin. The contact pins are springy. To fix mine, all I did was use the point of a small pin and gently pried up on the charging pin so it was more exposed.
Hope this helps,

Same problem on my side
In actual fact, when I got my fist elf, it only worked for a month then the screen stopped working. A quick stop at the distributor and a new unit was supplied. The new unit lasted 3 days and would not charge. After spending many hours swapping cables and trying other chargers and batteries, i came to the conclusion that the charging circuit had been damaged. I had the device replaced with another brand new elf and lo and behold, 3 days later, it wouldn't charge again. I took all I had back to the distributor and had everything replaced with new ones, from cables to charger to phone. I got home, flattened the battery with video playback then charged the phone again. To my dismay, it refused to charge. The broken device was returned again The distributor got so sick of seeing me for the same issues, they took my kit, and replaced it with a new elfin which has been working perfectly till today.
My guess is that the HTC devices have a very low tolerance to electric fault or spiking through the USB which causes the charging circuit to malfunction. All in all, my elf was repaired twice and replaced 6 times with new units in the first year alone. My elfin on the other hand may not be the most feature rich phone on the market but has certainly been my favorite.
Hi all,
same problem here. The power-pin just broke off. I'll try to mend it and report here.
Hey all,
I have a Galaxy Nexus which recently started to act up on his USB port saying it's constantly connecting /disconnecting to the charger with no cable present.
Device: Samsung Galaxy Nexus
Edition: Maguro GSM
OS: CM10.2 nightly + CM11 Alfa
Chargers: OEM, generic, battery & laptop
Cables: OEM & generic
Reproduceable: sometimes
This week I noticed my phone did not react immediately when I plugged it into the charger. Mostly after some fiddling (bending the cable away from the screen) it would start charging. After pulling the cable or removing the charger from the wall, it would generally take 5 to 10 sec for the phone to realize I pulled it- this used to be instantly.
Strangely, when the phone said it cannot charge it can be connected to a computer as Media Device without any problem. Charging only happens after the fiddling again.
Looking into BBS, it cannot give any stats because it says the device is connected constantly to a charger. Android original battery monitor stats are also a mess but it does not say I am connected always.
Every now and again the phone also starts making notifications as if he was constantly connecting and disconnecting - leading to frustrated looks of the people on my train...
Cleaned out the port - no success
Hit it on the train table - no success
Reset, battery pull, flash, different OS - no success
After this all I think it will be a hardware issue. Nothing seems bent and no pins seem to be sticking out. Removing the back and checking the mother board showed everything still intact and all connectors still in place.
I'm guessing now the micro USB connector of the phone has somewhere some corrosion or a pin out of place but not visible to the untrained eye.
Can someone shed some light please?
2 screenshots to show you what I mean.
No, I am not up for 9 hours and lost only 10%... Battery life has become horrible since this issue. It just thinks it's constantly hooked up to a power source and I think it's no longer power efficient because of this. I already disabled charge connection sound because it was driving me crazy ...
Please help if you know even half a solution. I can also post a photo of the connector but the problem is that there's not much to see there...
I think you have problem with charging circuit >>if you have solid knowledge in electronics you can simply replace it
replacing this port in attached pic will solve your problem .... otherwise you can fix your own port because I think one of your USB port pin are touching the ground chase of your motherbord
Thanks for the reply. Somewhat saw it coming I would have to replace something...
I already looked on some sites like ifixit to see what I could do but I thought to have seen that the Motherboard was in one big piece.
Could you please give me the website where you found this or the name /article code of this component?
Thank you

the phone works but sometimes after moves it shutdown..how can i fix this? its because it has bad connection or what?
Does anyone know where to find this battery to buy new?
also can i replace the battery connector with battery connector from another phone with 3 pins?
Thanks in advance
Well find alternatives on ebay or use that battery. Use hot glue to secure battery temporarily if loose connection occur. Remove useless app and less frequent charging will prolong its life or contact any eletronic/mobile shop. Hope this helps.
Dude it happened to me. I got a symbian phone whose battery was 7 yrs old but still it worked briliantly. Although i find a battery but its size was small and i used hot glue to firmly held it. It worked well. But last year it got stolen. I miss that unique phone. It was preloaded with band &oulsfeng amplifier. Checkout samsung SGH-i450 on internet.
Had my phone for 2months almost . Normal charging atleast once every two days or sometimes twice a day . Been very careful with my phone and cables but today i found out my phone has been charging very slow. Was at 60% with 2 hours 30mins left which was weird because it takes 45 mins normally to finish that. So i unplugged it and saw that one of the pins are missing/broken! Going to invest in a magnetic adapter braided cable just wondering if anyone have used these with their s7's. If yes then can you recommend me one ? Thanks.
I bought a Oneplus 6T a year ago. With 1 month of use, I noticed that his dash charge stopped working (charge only at normal speed).
As I have another oneplus at home (OP5) I tested the OP5 charger to know if this was the problem, but it didn't work.
So I tested both chargers on OP5, and both work the dash charge, so the problem is not on the charger nor cable.
I also tried to clean the phone connectors, tried factory reset, but it didnt work...
As my country did not have brand support, they could not help me.
What I want to know, it is there's anything else I can try to do to solve my problem.
If I could figure out that the problem is in the charger coonnector flat, I would import a replacement charge flat. But I'm worried that the problem is not in this piece, how can I find out?
PS: I never dropped my device, and there was never any contact with water or any accident. I don't know why the problem happened
In attach, the scrren of the charge test of the factorymode (original cable and charger)
Thank You!
