Sorry, dear reader(s); I spent much of yesterday trying all the ways the internet tells me to get my Samsung mobile to charge, because it stopped.
One after another, I tried: different
charging cables, connected to different outlets; using a wireless charger;
cleaning the charging port with a pin and a clean toothbrush; forced restart;
OS update. Nothing worked, and I was down to 27% battery.
Frantically I went to Samsung and looked
up their “authorized” service, something called (I’m not making this up)
ubreakitifixit (by Asurion). Then I spent about 15 minutes walking around the
Clocktower shopping center in Herndon, because there are about 50 different
business in the big building and all I had was a street address.
Fortunately, the very nice young geek used
something more effective than a pin or a toothbrush to get out a crap ton of pocket lint, and restored my ability to
recharge.
I spent the remainder of the day retiring
to my fainting couch to recover.
