Tablet computers tend to age quickly without their owners noticing. One of the biggest symptoms of an aging tablet is that it does not charge as well as it used to. Sometimes the device no longer charges at all, leaving the owner without the device until the problem can be fixed.
Troubleshooting a Charging Problem
Often users do not realise that there is a problem with their tablet until it does not turn on at all. Only when they try charging the obviously dead battery do they realise that the device is not charging properly. It helps if owners can pay attention to the device’s charging habits periodically.
It may be an indication that the charging port needs to be replaced when a tablet begins to take longer to charge. Another indication that there could be a problem is if the charging cable visibly moves when plugged into the device. The device may also chime repeatedly when the charging cable is plugged in.
Try a Different Charger
If the tablet is in a state where it is not charging at all, try a different charger. Most people tend to charge their devices in one particular way. If using a wall charger, try using a USB cable with a computer. In the event that the alternate charger does not work, the charging port itself likely needs replacing.
It is important to note that fixing a charging port is a very complex procedure requiring expert knowledge. Therefore, it is at your own risk when trying to repair without professional help.
