Why am I having a weak connection with my charger?

weak connection with charger.

I have tried 4 different chargers and the only one that works is a blackberry charger. It has a extremely weak connection, if I move the phone the connection will break. Its also charging slow, 40% in an hour and a half. This a Samsung galaxy s3 and I just got the charger port replaced about 2 months ago.

Either you're very rough on your charger port or whoever replaced the port did a bad job of it. At least one of the power pins on the port isn't connected securely. Unless you jam the plug in regularly, I'd look for a better repair shop.

Either that or just go with a wireless charging solution and bypass the micro-USB port altogether.
