Nokia Nokia 114 - Repair of charging or USB connector
If your Nokia Nokia 114 has a faulty or damaged charging connector then you will most likely have issues charging your phone and/or connecting it to your PC or laptop. This is a very common fault with many models of phones and can be a real pain as it basically stops you using your Nokia Nokia 114 completely. If your phone has a removable battery then one possible work-around is to charge the battery in another phone, or a desktop charging stand and then swap the battery around each time you want to use the phone - but this is not ideal at all.How does it happen?
- The most common way this happens is due to not taking enough care when connecting and disconnecting the cable - some phones are more susceptible to this issue than others.
- Yanking out the cable instead of removing it in the proper way
- Normal wear and tear can be a factor - if the connector has not been attached well during manufacturer this can be a cause of the problem
- Poorly designed or faulty cables or desktop chargers can also cause this issue
- Kids playing with the Nokia Nokia 114 can contribute to the issues with the USB or charging connector
What's the root cause
- The usual root cause is that the connections between the main-board of the phone and the charging connector become damaged (dry joints) and no longer make a good connection to allow the power or communications to reach the phone.
Common symptoms
- Your Nokia Nokia 114 won't charge up anymore
- The phone only charges intermittently
- Wiggling the cable around makes the Nokia Nokia 114 connect and disconnect
- Your handset won't connect to the PC via a USB cable
- The charging connector has broken off completely
Home repair tips
- If your phone has a removable battery you could charge it in a separate phone and then swap the batteries.
- Some phones (e.g. Blackberry) have different connections for desktop charging stands - this may mean you don't need to use the mini-USB connector at all
- Try cleaning the contacts of the connector with a small amount of alcohol and a ear bud - this may clean any debris from the connector if this was an issue.
- Try holding the Nokia Nokia 114 cable at various angles to help make the connection - you can try then to keep the cable in place by attaching it to the back of the phone with some sellotape
