Can't Charge My S5 Active
I've had my S5 Active for just a couple months, now. Last night, I tried charging it and when I plugged it into the wall charger, it would show that it's charging for a couple seconds but then would say that the charger was unplugged, even though it wasn't. I'm using the original charger that was given to me and I'm pretty sure it's not damaged yet. I plugged it into all sorts of working outlets (and computers) around the house and experienced the same problem. An article online suggested lifting up the tab inside the USB port in the phone, so I did but it didn't help. Every time I try charging my phone, it only works for a few seconds. I have to shamefully admit, though, that just before, I took my S5 Active and washed it with shampoo... I'm pretty sure I rinsed and dried it thoroughly, but it might not have been enough. So, what do I need to do to get my phone charging again? Thank you!
