[AC Question]

my S5 is preventing charging - it says use original charger - I am!

the charging door is gone..has been for months..today a screen comes up and says charger is incompatible, use original charger. Phone is now preventing a charge; can this re-set somehow? Charger worked fine yesterday
Thanks!

My phone did the same thing early this morning, so I just swapped the charger with another one I had and it worked phone. But it was strange to get that message tho lol

Try to blow compressed air into the port. Also try another usb cable and charger

Vacuum the port and the USB plug periodically. Sometimes fuzz happens hehe.
