Hi, I'm making this post in lieu of my friend.
My friend here has an Android S10e obtained in 2019, our problem starts with a power bank (Brand:ASAP Technology Model:BP8C1) when plugging their phone into the power bank instead of charging the phone will begin draining. Screenshots they sent me of a battery health app show -7 to -6 Watts out of -2k to -1.8k mA after charging with the power bank, I will make a side note to mention their devices temp sits around 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
After unplugging the phone the problems persist, I've instructed them to give the phone a break before charging it again as a test. This issue has also happened before with a different phone and same power bank as well, both with different charging cables.
What we'd like to know is if this will be a permanent problem with the battery? Or if there's another way to fix this, nixing phone repair (this isnt a off the table i just want to know if we can home remedy it before moving to extreme measures)
As well to add my own opinion in here, even if I sound or look stupid I like learning and being proven wrong anyways, my working theory is that the power bank is possibly too strong for the phone causing battery drain instead of charge. However I know nothing about electricity, so I may be wrong.
Also adding the fact that according to the phone the charging port is wet, despite my friend saying it isn't.
