What constitutes a phone being in good working condition? I have an M8 with a charging issue that I do know is a hardware problem. I've had the USB port replaced, but that didn't fix it. It has about 50% power on the battery right now, which would be enough to backup and wipe the phone with a little left over.
I got the phone with an Edge agreement and I am eligible for an early upgrade with a trade in. As much as I love the performance of the M8, this is the second time I've had an issue with the port (the first being a warrantied exchange). So I'm wondering if I should just cut my losses and move on. Would my phone be ok for trading in? It works great running off the battery, so there wouldn't be any indication of a problem unless they plug it in.
