If your Android phone is not charging as quickly as it used to, there may be a bent charger at the root of the problem. Here’s how to fix it:

  1. Remove the battery if possible. This will disable any power saving features on the phone and allow you to more easily inspect the charger.
  2. If you can’t remove the battery, use a flat head screwdriver to pry up on one end of the charger and pull it out from the phone. Be careful not to damage either device!
  3. Inspect the charger for damage. If there is visible damage, replace the charger with a new one. If there is no visible damage, try using a different outlet or USB port on your computer to charge your phone. ..
