@danj hey thanks for the answer. If i still continue using the OEM cable, will it worsen the condition of my phone?

Yes, you could damage things more. Depending on how bad the connector is you could create a short within it. Basically, a pin could slide over and touch a different pin (If its cracked). If its corrosion or lint built-up less likely to be not so bad.

I wouldn't wait too long!
