My ZTE will not charge at all and I know it has something to do with the charger port does anyone know how to fix this problem? Or does anyone know someone who can fix it for me? Also I live in the 559 area.
My ZTE phone is a month old and about a week ago everytime i would try to charge it , it would send me a message saying my charger was week along the lockscreen. Ive tried everything please help… Note my phone is not old brand new also my charger is brand new.
I happen to have my Z987 open now to replace the digitizer and LCD. The USB/charge port is soldered directly onto the motherboard. If your problem is due to damage to it, then I’m afraid you are out of luck unless you are very handy with a soldering iron. Here are some trouble shooting tips: Obvious damage to the charge portReplace the motherboardTake your chances with a soldering iron (if you can find the right part)Get professional helpGet a new phoneIf there is no obvious damage to the charge port, then you may have an easier problem to solve.The phone powers on when it is plugged in to a USB portThe problem could be a bad batteryThe battery cable may have disconnected from the motherboard.Otherwise, there may be non-obvious damage to the charge port, see recommendations for obvious damage to charge port. I hope this helps.
I have the same problem! It’s definitely not the charger it’s definitely the port in the phone! Does anyone know if this covered under warranty because my phone isn’t even that old and it’s already broken. The charger cord is no good anymore because the USB plug in got so hot one time and burned it out and it was plugged into my wall!!! I feel really ripped off for a $200. phone!
what happened to us is BS. WE TRUST OUR GOVERNMENT TO PROTECT US AS CONSUMERS. ACER LAPTOP CHARGE PORT, SAME THING, HOW WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUY A CAR AND AFTER A FEW YEARS YOU CAN KEEP THE CAR BUT YOU HAD TO GIVE UP THE MOTOR. THAT IS PRECISELY WHAT microsoft IS DOING. WE KNOW HARDWARE BREAKS , WE GO GET NEW STUFF. NOW THEY WONT PROVIDE DRIVERS. ITS LIKE TAKING THE STARTER, BRAKES, YOU GET MY POINT IS. WE PAY OUR GOVERNMENT WELL TO PROTECT US. PLEASE CONTACT THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION AND PITCH A FIT. 877-382-4357 stephanypaine I WAS A COOL PHONE, THATS WHY I HAVE ONE THAT WORKS AS A PAPER WEIGHT.
I would suggest that you find a local cell phone repair shop or some times many of the extremely good/excellent computer/laptop repair shops are more than skilled and capable fo repairing almost any Android cellphone currently being produced, microUSB charging port. IDK what these other shops might charge but if you are local to me (Terre Haute Indiana area) I charge flat rate of $150 to replace this port which includes a new micro USB port (the only delay is I have to order this part since I don’t maintain any inventory of parts which helps me maintain a lower cost of operations)(installed&tested) the microUSB charging port
I lost an iPhone 5s a month ago. LOVED that phone. Anyway…out of desperation, I pulled out my ZTE Grand Xmax Plus that has been dead for the better part of 2 years. I had the same issue with the charging port, but mine had actually broken off the piece it was mounted to on the logic board. I searched eBay, found a logic board for $35 and voila! I’m back in business. I’m anything but a pro at this stuff, but I figured it out. I’m glad to have this baby back! I feel like Roy Rogers being reunited with Trigger! Lol
Hey I was asking about the same thing.but I had a little different type of problem.its still consists of USB port.I had mine Grand Max 3 charging in my car with the right cord and an adapter plug to my lighter.well all of a sudden smoke started coming out of my phone USB port.i quickly unplug it held it up in front of the AC until cooled off the cord melted and the charger tab was black and toasty.i called 15 local phone repair places.not a one would even look at it for me .sorry some people are a_- holes.so I scraped off most of the black and I tried to charge it nothing.so I set a ashtray on top of the phone and let the Port end hang over the edge about 1inch.then }luged up the cord bent the cord attached a rubber band around the cord then stretched out the rubber band and hooked it to something below.it made the back of the cord where plugged in pull down make The inside connection force up and my phone charges now.it my not work for anyone else or u may have to be a crafty redneck to get it to work.jus playing I have done 2 ZTE these way it’s cheap matieral .
yes and my phone will not charge at all
hi my phone wont expect a charge its the adaptor part on my phone how can i fix it
My cellphone when I plug the charger into the phone I have to wiggle it around to try to get it to charge, how can I fix it
I just bought a Verizon zte phone not even 2 months ago and tonight I plugged into charge it had only been charging 5 mins when I smelt something like wires melting so I started looking around to find my phone port had litterally melted to my charger and the wire itself had melted into which in the process burnt my car seat can. Some direct me towards who to start contacting
