How do I fix the charging input on my phone at home? Here it is necessary to understand well, then everything will turn out. Inaccurate use of a mobile device often ends in some kind of breakdown, which must be eliminated. Sometimes the breakage lies in the connector for connecting the power cable. In this case, you need to know how to fix it, and for this it is worth familiarizing yourself with the main causes of the defect.
The main reasons for the failure of the socket device:
- On the device you can shed some liquid or just drop it properly to disable this module.
- Constant mechanical influences deform the socket, which can make charging the gadget simply an impossible procedure - the plug will not go into the connector or will hang in it.
- Contact pads can also be bent, which completely cuts off access to electricity.
Let's talk about the worst - about moisture.
The contact of the mobile phone connector with moisture is the most dangerous damage. Corrosion will trigger a chain reaction and all adjacent components will oxidize. Such defects can damage the dynamics, which is most often located at the bottom of the device. Also, the speaker itself gives access to moisture to hit the loop or connector. Therefore, not even heavy rain can disable your phone.
The most important thing is to evaluate the complexity of the damage, since not all cases allow you to repair the house. The best option is to use the services of a qualified specialist from some service center. So you will not risk dolomit your device.
Can I repair the device at home?
Very rarely, restoration work can be carried out independently. It is best to find an alternative way of charging for a while until you decide for yourself whether to fix it yourself. While the required amount is being deferred for repair in the workshop, read the instructions for charging the phone with a broken socket:
- Insert the charger into your smartphone and plug into the network.
Important! This method is relevant only for devices that are affected by mechanical effects, and not from moisture.
- Gently stir the cord and device in different directions. You may be able to close the contact and charge the device.
- If the mobile phone still found the presence of a charger, then it is worthwhile to fix the found position. In the course can go books and other items that can install the phone so that the food continues.
- Before carrying out all these operations, it is necessary to make sure that the problem is in the socket, not in the battery. Long use of the phone leads to the fact that it stops holding the charge. For this case it is necessary to acquire a new accumulator, and not to struggle with "phantom" breakdown.
- If the case is still in the nest, then repairs can not be avoided.
Important! Remember that all these manipulations can further weaken the nest, so do not apply much force during the work.
