Only charged on certain angles?

Hi! so my note only seems to be charging on certain angles and wont at all if its not sitting the right way. The cord seems to fall out very easily, but there is nothing in the port like lint as Ive cleaned it. Any ideas or advice?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

If you have the same problem with a new cable, then the charge port is probably worn out from connection being pushed in/pulled out, often sideways.

It’s a USB C port so cleaning to remove build up fluff or small deposits is much harder than lighting port on iPhone.

So any built up obstruction can cause these symptoms, you need to be able to get between central tab and the walls of the port & down deeper without doing damage.

If it’s worn out and you don’t mind having a go yourself, you can get new charging ports cheap here :

But you’ll have to be patient after paying, it can take up to 20 days to get to you depending on what continent you’re on.

Hope this helps

Thank you so much. I ended up going to a shop because I cleaned it a few times and its been like this for over a year when I got it, and it turns out the pin in the middle was bent slightly so he was able to straighten it and now its charging like it should.
