How we do it

How we carry out charging port repair

Many cases are fixed by a professional port clean. If the port is damaged, we replace the charging sub-board or charging flex; on phones where the port is soldered to the main board, we replace it under the microscope. If the charging IC or nearby components have failed, we repair them at board level.

Pricing

What affects the cost of charging port repair?

Prices depend on your exact model and the part you choose. We give you a clear quotation after diagnosis, before any work starts.

  • Whether cleaning is enough
  • Sub-board or flex replacement versus soldering a port on the main board
  • Whether the charging IC or other board components need replacing
  • Liquid damage around the port
Brand differences

How it differs by brand

  • Samsung

    Most Galaxy A and M models have the USB-C port on a replaceable sub-board, which often also carries the main microphone.

  • Apple iPhone

    iPhone 15 and later use USB-C; earlier models use Lightning. The port is on a flex cable.

  • Oppo

    VOOC fast charging only works with a compatible charger and cable, so we rule those out first.

Your choice of parts

Which replacement part is right for your phone?

For many repairs, especially screens and batteries, more than one type of part is available. We tell you which options exist for your exact model, how they differ, and the warranty on each, so you choose with full information.

Original / manufacturer parts

Made by or for the phone’s manufacturer. Usually the closest match to how the phone left the factory, and usually the most expensive. Availability varies by model.

High-quality compatible parts

Made by other suppliers to fit your model. A good-value choice for many repairs. Quality varies between suppliers, so we only fit parts we have tested.

Some differences can show after a repair, for example screen brightness and colour, or a "non-genuine part" notice on some phones. We explain these before you decide.

How it works
FAQ

Charging port repair questions

My phone charges only at an angle. Is it the port?

Usually the port or its connection is worn or blocked. Continued wiggling makes it worse, so have it checked soon.

Can you repair the charging IC?

Yes. When the port and board connection are fine but the phone still won't charge, we diagnose and replace failed charging components at board level.

Can a cheap charger damage my phone?

Poor chargers can deliver unstable power and damage the charging circuit over time. Use a good charger rated for your phone.
