Charger socket repair ?

miggiwoo

My eldest Son has just given me his phone and said it isn't charging.
Its a ZTE KIS and I have found that the charger socket has been slightly pushed inside the phone.

Is it something that is fairly simple and inexpensive to repair or is it not economical to get it fixed ?

Thanks for any help

I suspect the answer to that probably won't be known until someone has opened it up

If it's just the charger socket come free from the PCB, or the socket is knackered, it's probably possible to replace it.
Unfortunately I suspect it's more likely the PCB has been damaged when the socket has been knocked around (it sounds like the phone has been dropped when it's been on charge, and the charge jack has impacted the ground first, shoving the socket in).
