Your Android phone won't charge

It's almost never the phone's fault — it's either lint in the port, a broken cable, or a dead adapter. Try a different cable first, then clean the port with a toothpick.

When your phone won't charge, the problem is almost always simple: a pocket full of lint packed into the charging port, a cable that's gone bad, or an adapter that died. The phone's actual charging hardware is rarely broken. You can diagnose which one in under 5 minutes by testing a different cable.
