    Tried all your tips! The wood toothpick did the trick. What a difference, the cable went in much further and had the little tick. I could feel some softness in the port, probably sawdust. Saved me from sending it in for repair. Thank you so much.

    I was having problems charging my Huawei P20 Pro. The charger was not going in fully. I watched this video. Absolutely brilliant. Thank you so much! I used a toothpick to clear out the port which I'd never done in over 18 months. I could not believe the lumps of dust that came out (actually, I should have known). Now it's clear of dust and the phone is now charging as if new. Thanks again. 10/10.

    My god! I have had my phone for like 2 years now. For about 1 year i have struggle with the charging thinking it was poor quality cable that made it charge so bad and made the c connector laggy. 10 new chargingcables and this clip appear random when i was looking on yt and now all my cargingcables work perfectly and no laggy c connector anymore... Just a quick roting with a toothpick and it was like new. Jesus christ! Thank you so much!❤

I gently scrubbed and scrubbed and now I'm getting a charge. There must have been that grime on the contacts that you spoke of. Couldn't see it...but now I know the grime was there. Cheers! 🤓

    On the point of giving up with my Lenovo laptop, which has a USB C type power charger port. We thought for sure that we were going to need an expensive repair, after getting the back off the laptop and seeing that the port was soldered to the board. Tried with a plastic toothpick as a last resort - wish I'd done this first. I didn't even see any fluff or anything come out, but it clearly cleaned enough to allow contact again. Thanks so much for your video.

    Thank you so much! I used a plastic toothpick, the one which comes with a floss. My phone is fast charging again!!! The cable still doesn't fit snugly to the port though so the wire has to be lifted while charging (seems there have been a lot of complaints about the Nokia5.1 plus charging port) but this vid helped a lot! Thank you!

    I had some tissue paper stuck that was not allowing the charging cable to make proper contact. I used some alcohol to moisten the tissue paper and make it soft, then I pulled it out after rubbing enough times using lock-pick hook. The cheat buggers were charging me from replacement of Charging port to the whole assembly including mic/vibrator etc. Apparently all it needed was simple cleaning which I realized thanks to your video :) . Thanks a lot, please continue this work.

I could feel it with the credit card tool like you used and actually took a bit of work to clean it all out. Now it's nice and tight again and takes some effort to remove the charge cord. Again many thanks. You saved me nearly $1k on an upgrade.y old Pixel 3xl is still a great phone.

    Thanks for the tips! Worked really well. Another video I watched recommended using a needle but I think your way is less likely to damage the phone. I didn't have the cleaner so I used 70% rubbing alcohol. Also had these plastic toothpicks called Doctor's Brushpick that were amazing for this. The wood ones splinter too quickly. I turned my phone off so instead of turning it on every time to test, I kept working on it until the usb cable fit well without a wobble. It took like 30 minutes for me. Guess I really packed that dirt in, so don't give up people if it doesn't work right away!

    I had to break out a tiny safety pin. I think the toothpick/cocktail stick dislodged a pin, so be careful of that. Not a problem for me at the moment thankfully. Also, using a head lamp, like for camping, is really useful to see down inside. But yeah, solved my problem when I was losing hope! Thanks for the vid!

    this video was a life saver. i heard my usb cord click into my phones usb c port for the first time in months. using cleaning solution for cleaning glasses also does the trick. if the toothpick is too big just bite down on the edges to flatten it then spray it. using a twist tie commonly found on bread also works to help break down the lint and i used a small brush for cleaning a hair clipper was a big help. dont forget to spray out the dust after every toothpick and brush that goes inside. took about 30 minutes but i got every single piece of lint out.

    Hi Mike, I CANT EXPRESS HOW MUCH IM THANKFUL TO U,-- BECAUSE OF UR VIDEO I GOT MY IPAD BACK TO LIFE.
    I had a very similar and a bad experience with my 14 month old ipad pro. My ipad wont charge beyond 1%, strange as it sounds. Was devastated when the guys at apple service center told that its an hardware issue(defective USB C port), and that ipads cannot be repaired and only replaced which would cost me ~ 600$. Was utterly disappointed as the ipad was just 2 months beyond its warranty cover and as many of us, had not opted for the apple care+. Desperate to find solutions, i spent days on doing research on internet and youtube and tried every possible tips and tricks, with no success. UNTIL I CAME ACROSS UR VIDEO. I'm sure the problem with my usb c port was not the dust accumulated, cuz i had tried all those tricks multiple times and had no effect. The trick that made the difference was- with the Cable ties / zip ties. I checked plugging the ipad after each trick and ipad wouldnt charge but after this step, it magically was. and now ipad is back to life. 100% charged. I could save all my important datas. All thanks to ur video without which I would have never THOUGHT OF OR TRIED this step with the cable ties. I dont know what in that step that was different or made the trick, but I m grateful and glad that it DID. Now ipad charges seemlessly as before. God bless u Mike. keep making such videos which do really help people in real need and a hope. THANKS A TON.
    P.S - I have already subscribed and shared this video links with my other friends for them to share. ;-)
