Rca tablet chargin port pin is broken and whont charge with usb cable

Hi Elizabeth.
Problems charging Android tablets usually stem from either the charger or the charging port itself. If you notice your tablet isn't charging, set it to Air plane Mode and reduce the brightness to extend the battery life while you work to solve the problem. Back up your files while you can, in case the problem can't be solved at home.
Sometimes the problem is with the charging port of the tablet itself. Examine it to see whether it's bent or misshapen. The connector on the charging cable needs to be able to fit well, so that all the pins on the charger are correctly attached to those on the port. If your port is damaged, it may need to be fixed or the entire unit may need to be replaced. You should also check the connector on the charging cable to make sure that port is correctly shaped and not damaged.
Sometimes using an incorrect power adaptor can prevent a tablet from charging. Look at both the base of the adaptor that plugs into an outlet and the cable itself. Very long extension micro USB cables, for example, charge more slowly than shorter OEM cables. Check the manual that came with your tablet to see what type of charger you need. If you're charging the tablet from a computer USB port, it may prevent the tablet from charging correctly. Use a wall adaptor and see if it fixes the problem.

Some tablets have a charging port and a usb port. If your tablet is so equipped it should charge while connected to another computer by usb or to a usb charger.

If your tablet is only equipped with a usb port and that is broken, it will need a repair before the battery can be charged.

Hi,

Does the tablet power on when plugged in?
Have you tried a different power outlet, or a different power adapter?
Does the connector on the tablet seem loose or will the tablet charge if you hold the charging cable firmly to the charging socket?

Depending on your answers, it could be a bad charging port on the device, or a bad power adapter/cable, or a problem with electrical outlets. The remaining option would be a battery problem.

I post on behalf of HP.

could be software issue reset it would fix it:?
damage to ports both broken sounds unlikely
try usb plug into a different computer
the cables inside the tablet are loose or not connected
check for damage to ports and loose connections inside device

Try using a USB charging cable that plugs into a wall socket (via adapter), rather than using a cable plugged into the computer. Computer USB sockets sometimes have lower power ratings and are insufficient to charge tablets.
(It is not clear if you have successfully charged on computer before or not). Also just try a new cable if you have not as they can become damaged (get one with a decent make - sometimes the very cheap cables and charges are poor quality and do not work well)

If none of that helps / you have tried it all please reply and I will try to help further.

Try charging it with the USB cable from the computer. It could be your charger pin is faulty. This happens from frequent in and out charging. The pins on the charger tip get worn out. If it charges with the USB cable then get a new charger.Charging from the computer is slower but it works.

You can charge your tablet through the USB port on your desktop computer. Just plug it in with the USB cable that came with your unit. It's slower charging but who cares?

Those pins are delicate. Be careful when inserting and removing.

The USB is designed to power on first and then the data is transferred.

Forget about taking it to a repair shop. The charges will be more than the tablet is worth and it's not likely they will have the part.
