If your battery is not charging well, will not immediately imagine the worst. Often, the problem is simpler than it seems. Your phone or tablet does not load, or evil? Here are some tips to try before considering replacement.
Why does a phone does support more?
There are two levels of severity when addressing this problem. Either your phone does any more load when plugged or it loads slowly (almost as fast as it discharges). In most cases, the defective element is none other than the cable. It also happens that the micro USB port or USB Type-C is put in question.
Think about the dust
By dint of being in your pocket, the exposed ports on your phone gradually accumulate dust. Dust will be crushed and compressed every time you put your smartphone in charge. After a time, this dirt pile will eventually form a layer that will prevent your device from loading properly.
To face this situation, get yourself a toothpick. Turn off your phone and remove the battery (if possible). Finally, attempt to clean the inside of your micro USB port. If you do not succeed, you can always try to remove the pile using a can of compressed air.
Repair the USB port or even
Often the fastest and most efficient solution is to make a small adjustment to the USB port. Most of the time, expense problems occur due to a small movement of the metal part located inside the port. Thus, this deformation results in a poor connection between the cable and the phone.
As to settle the dust problem, a toothpick will do. Switch off your device and, with the greatest delicacy, pry straighten the metal part. It'll just turn on your phone and see if the problem is resolved.
Exchange cable, mains or battery
A faulty cable, it happens, as well as the failed power supply. Try your charger on other devices, and if you have one, try connecting your device to another feeder. Degradation often occurs when the charger is connected without being used, or when the cable is damaged.
Last solution that thinking, pure and simple battery replacement. If the battery is accessible by removing the dorsal part of the device, and you just order a new one to reset your mobile to nine. High-end mobile are however often unibody, which does not mean it is impossible to open them. Appointments for example iFixit or on specialized forums to find guides and tips specific to your phone.
Use Ampere to identify the problem
Ampere is a free application for identifying a faulty cable. Download it from the link below and connect your device to the suspect cable. Once the application is launched, a green text saying "calculation" should appear. If the text is orange, it means that the current does not flow in your phone.
If Ampere can detect the current flowing, various statistics will be provided. Among them: the current tension, maximum and minimum (milliamperes). It is through this information you can determine what hardware is most useful for your device. In addition, it will show whether the current sent to your device too or not powerful enough.
Finally, if none of this works for you, or you do not feel like doing this kind of manipulation, please go see professional or even play your warranty. If the repairs are not covered by your insurance, it is indeed necessary to remember that quotes will be given and you will estimate if repairs must be performed or not.
