Hello,
I own a Blu Vivo XL lately I have had a issue with it where if it dies (which it will do at 5% battery) I need to get it hooked up to a USB Port (I have been using a Pluggable Hub without hooking that up to a computer) because if I hook it up to the wall adapter or a computer directly it will vibrate once and then never charge.
I am still waiting to hear from the manufacturer to see if they will give me a new phone since I just bought it in February. Apparently the charging port in this phone is known to go out.
While I am stuck with this phone I was thinking wireless charging might work but I can't find any usb c adapters that have the ribbon on the right hand side which is where the port is on this phone.
So my question is what are my options?
Three I have considered are:
1) Buy a Qi adapter with a ribbon on the right hand side (can't find one if you see one please send me a link or direct me to a store.)
2) Buy a micro USB adapter and then use a micro USB to USB C adapter on that, but that would probably stick out from the phone to much and potentially cause more damage to the charging port
3) DIY one by Frankensteining the a USB C ribbon onto a micro USB Qi charger with the ribbon on the right hand side.
4) Pay money to have an updated charging port installed into the phone since I don't have those skills.
Any one else got any ideas? I really like this phone. And I am going on vacation in a few days. I need to keep the phone alive during this trip so I need to come up with something fast (So number 4 is out for now.)
