Elm Charger port help

Had this mobile sitting in its box new and unused as the charger port was knackered and didnt have insurarance, so sent it to shop and they took the port out and sent it back unfixed, so my question is cant i simply get new port put in it? so i can charge the battery up and use i ?

Well, I'm amazed they sent it back without the charging port! In any case, having had a look, there doesn't seem to be any spare charging ports for sale for your phone, probably because it's quite a new model.I can only suggest that you get it repaired by a SE-approved service centre.Since the phone is unused and presumably fairly new, you should be able to fix it under the warranty, although I don't understand what the water damage claim is based on.

Iphone charger port help needed

So, i tried to plug my phone into the cable becuase it was about to die. when i plugged it into the cable it wasnt charger. i did everything possibel, switched outlets,changed chargers nothing is working. i think the little connector on the inside is messed up and im not sure what to do. Is this covered in the warinty or not? i need help asap. any help or leads would be very appreciated. Thanks

Dmulrine,
Yikes no iPhone is no fun, so lets get this fixed! If it is in fact the charger port on your device that has gone out, provided there is no physical or liquid damage, your phone can be replaced under the year manufacture warranty. Since you have already tried using a different charger and outlet the last thing you may want to try is soft reset. A soft reset can be preformed on your device by holding down the power and home button at the same time until you see the Apple symbol. Your device will then reset and you can try the charger again. If the issue still persist please feel free to contact us so we can set your device to be replaced.
Thank you,

Dropped my phone in my cereal bowl and took it out immediately. I let it sit in rice and it's still working. I noticed i could not charge the phone. The charged wuld not go in the charging port of the cell phone. What do I do? Please help me!

Placed it in a bowl of rice. Cannot connect charger to charging port. Pleae give advise on what to do. Thank you

Thank you for your advise! I didn't even think about a grain of rice blocking the entrance to the port. I just assumed it was Apple's way of blocking any form of liquid to get in the system. You are right, there was one grain that was blocking the port. I finally was able to remove it and now I can charge my phone again. Have a good day!

HELP!!! Charger port has came out.

Removing lint from charging port - PLEASE HELP!

Hey guys,
I really need to charge my 3G iPhone, but when I went to plug it in, I noticed the plug wouldn't go in all the way. So, I removed it and inspected the charging port, and discovered that I have a piece of lint from my jeans pocket stuck between the board and the side of the case... It appears to be lodged, and I'm not sure how to remove this... any thoughts?
Jeff

I had a similar issue..
I used a sewing needle and canned air.
Be warned that if there is any damage to the device in doing so, it may void your warranty.

Verizon Galaxy Nexus - Defective Charging Port

Bought my Galaxy Nexus in April of 2012, along with insurance on the phone. Love the phone and the pure Android experience. However, back in February, I woke up one morning and noticed that even though my phone was plugged in, the battery was not charging. I tried using different cords and my spare battery, neither fixed the issue, which meant that the charging port on the phone was defective. I brought it to a VZW store, and since the issue occurred within a year of purchasing the phone, they sent me a certified pre-owned galaxy nexus as a replacement (They had to send me three replacement phones total because the first two would not boot properly, but that's a different story.)
So here I am, 5 months later, and I woke up one morning and discover the same issue. Phone is plugged in (using the original charger that come with the original phone by the way), but it is not charging. Won't charge with a different cord, won't charge with a different battery, which means that the port is defective. I take the phone to the Verizon store, and am informed that A) my year-long warranty has run out, so if I want to replace the phone I will have to pay full retail price for it, and B) The default insurance plan on these phones only covers cracked screens or lost devices. The VZW support rep actually suggested that I damage the screen on the phone before sending it to the insurance company, because otherwise they would send it back and refuse to replace it.
So to recap, Verizon sold me a defective device, replaced it with another defective device, and now in order to fulfill the remaining nine months of my contract with them, I will have to purchase another device at full retail value. That's $600-$700 I'm expected to pay just to continue adhering to the terms of my contract. For now, I went on amazon and bought an external battery charger which I now have to carry with me at all times, which is an unacceptable solution for the next nine months. Surely there has to be a better option?

This is the same problem I had in the past and Samsung fixed the phone
under warranty. Since a warranty is only 1 year and not the length of the
contract it doesn't help anymore. I do not have insurance and the phone
has never been wet. I have to wiggle the port or reset something on the
connect to have it charge properly. Verizon was unwilling to help me the
last time I had this issue since I purchased the phone new from Amazon. I
would appreciate it if you could help.

Can't get battery to charge - please help before I pull my hair out

My daughter and I both have the Curve 8530, first, her battery didn't seem to hold a charge very long, then her charging port stopped working. So we started swapping the batteries. When hers was low, I would give her mine with more charge and charge up the other one, using it until the first one needed a charge. That started getting more and more frequent, now, all of the sudden I can't get either one to charge in my phone. Figured out that hers doesn't charge because it is broken. We can see a piece of metal that should be on the little tab in the port, laying at the bottom of the port. Mine is a little loose after 2 years, so I sometimes have to wiggle the connection or make sure I set it down and don't move it when it is charging. However, this is making me crazy. It was plugged into my computer usb to charge all night and was completely dead this morning. Which, is not a big suprise as the usb port on my computer doesn't always like to charge the BB. Gives me an error saying not enough power. So I plugged in the wall charger and let it sit. It gets far enough that it will start the OS, but then sat there for hours and never changed from red and didn't get even 1 bar of charge. Usually it only take a short time. I read another post about an internal circular battery under the sticker with all the identification numbers on it, but I don't see any battery resembling that and am not comfortable taking my BB apart like that. So any suggestions as to what the problem might be? Or how to fix it? My daughter's, though she doesn't think so, is not near as important as having at least one battery for mine due to work, etc. Thanks for reading and any help.

I would suggest trashing the .itl and .xml files to make sure you start clean (quit iTunes before you trash the files, of course). Then use the Add Folder To Library command and select your iTunes Music folder. That should get everything back into iTunes, though you won't get any playlists back unless you made a backup of them.

My iphone 5 will not charge? i noticed it was taking a few attempts to charge since i installed ios7,but recently it stopped working all together i though it may be the charging port so i have had that replaced but that still hasn't worked

my iphone 5 wont charge? I started to have difficulties charging it when I downloaded ios7 and over time it started to become more and more of a problem, then yesterday I thought it might have been the charging port so I got that replaced but it is still not charging. even with both of my chargers and a friends charger it didn't charge, does anyone have any idea what might be the problem? if its ios7 or the hardware? and what should I do i am still within warranty but I'm not sure if that still counts since it has had a part replaced, or would the apple store be able to help me out?

Replacing the charging port (which is NOT user serviceable) has voided your warranty with Apple, and forfeited your abiltity to receive any further support on that phone, including from this forum.
You'll need to look elsewhere for assistance.

Found a dead spider in my charging port (iphone 4) this morning. Now phone wont charge at all... What can I do? It's now all totally cleared of lint and legs :/

This morning my phone wouldnt charge, I tried three different charging cables. They are lighting up to show they are working, but the phone does not charge or show a symbol or connect to the computer.
So i cleaned out the lint from inside the charging port. and inside all the chargers, some of them were new off the shelf so would not be the problem.
I found a dead spider inside the port. Have blown into it, thoroughly cleaned with a needle any debris and fluff and spider legs etc...
It still wont charge. I have ten percent battery... it's off for now. It is not covered for a chat with apple at all, unless i pay $40 which is crazy expensive.
Any ideas of what to do to save this phone? Obviously i cant back it up because it wont plug in to anything.
For now it is not on charge, just trying to let it dry out.
Probably i squashed this spider when plugging it in. therefore there could be spider guts all ruining the inside? I don't know how the ports are made. Up until not charging
there were no issues at all.

Hi lisellemono1,
I'm sorry to hear you are having charging issues with your iPhone; I know how frustrating that can be. Based on your description and the possibility that there may be other debris or residue still in the charging port, you may need to have your iPhone evaluated or serviced.

Broken Charger Port on Satellite L500-1XD

Hi my laptop L500-1XD fell about 6 inches onto the carpet, it was charging at the time and the charger port seems to be cracked meaning that the charger will not stay in and it will not charge.
Can you tell me please whether it is possible to replace the charger port, and if so where I would get it done (and how much it is likely to cost)
Thank you

As far as I know this port is soldered on the mainboard. You can try to search it on the net or on eBay (I saw some there) but in my opinion this problem should be solved on professional way so maybe best solution for you is to contact nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.
They can disassemble your notebook, check the damage and repair it.
I think nobody here can say how much it will cost. Ask provider directly.

Broken Charging Port

Hi,
I am with Bell. Last year i had boughten my first bb in April, a blackberry Style.
Four months later the charging port broke. First it started off that I needed to have the cable on a certain angle to charge then it stopped working altogether.
I sent my phone away to be repaired and it was returned "un repairable" and "damage was caused due to dropping" which was absolutely not true being that I am incredibly careful with my devices and I kept a hard case on it that I went to the states specifically for and also only had it for 4 months!
Needless to say I was furious with this answer, especially since Blackberry or Bell did notthing but tell me I needed to buy a new one because it was not covered in my warranty.
After my contract is up with Bell I will be switching to Rogers and possibly switching to Team IPhone (unfortunately) if i cannot find a good blackberry or a solution to my broken BB Style.
Someone help me.

Our BB Style had this same problem. We went to the store and were told it was probably corrosion in the battery terminal but because it was a BB it couldn't even be looked at in store and had to be sent out and would cost at least $100 to fix (even thought we pay Sprint $8/month for insurance).
They were so interested in discouraging us to get it fixed and telling us that if it were water or something we would have to pay the full replacement value ($600) for the phone. He kept trying to sell us a new iPhone and their were no other BB phones to even demo in the store.
We went to a Radio Shack and wound up getting a lower price iPhone but are upset that BB wasn't represented in almost any store and were told our insurance was worthless.
Is this the type of relationship BB wants with its field sales force?
Hi and Welcome to the Community!
It does sound like whoever you spoke to was very poorly trained. But do be advised that the shop you went to was not a RIM store...it was a Sprint store, and they are a separate entity from RIM. They contract to sell BBs and BB services, but they are not RIM. So, it sounds like, if you wish to pursue a complaint path, that path would be with Sprint, would it not?
But, perhaps you wish for RIM to notice this issue...if that's your goal, I hope it's attained here. Just be aware that these forums are a user-to-user community, not a user-to/from-RIM formal communication channel.
Good luck!
