What this fixes

What a charging port repair actually fixes.

  • Will not charge at allNothing when you plug in. Sometimes the port, sometimes the cable, occasionally the battery or the board, which is why we look first.
  • Charges but will not connect to a computer or CarPlayPower and data run on different pins, so a port can pass one and fail the other.
  • It charges only when you hold the cable at an angleWorn contacts or a port that has been pulled sideways. Holding it is the last stage before it stops entirely.
  • It charges from a plug but the computer will not see itData pins rather than power pins. Same port, and it tells us which side of it has failed.
  • The cable falls out on its ownLint packed behind the contacts, or a port whose retention clips have worn. The first is a clean and the second is a replacement.
  • It got hot around the port while chargingStop using that cable. A hot port is worth looking at before it takes the board with it.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely the charging port?

This is the repair most often quoted when it is not needed, so it is worth going through properly.

IfIt stopped charging suddenly with no drop
Try another cable and another plug first. Cables fail far more often than ports and it costs nothing to rule out.
IfIt charges from the wall but not from a computer
Power and data are different pins. That narrows it to the port rather than the battery or the board, which is useful to know before we open anything.
IfThe phone is dead and does not respond to any charger
Start with a diagnostic. A dead phone is not the same problem as a bad port, and we would rather find out which before you pay.
IfTwo different cables both fail
Now it is the phone. One cable failing is a cable; two is a port.
IfIt charges fine but slowly
Try another plug first. Slow charging is very often the charger rather than the phone.

If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

What parts do we fit?

Two tiers, and you choose knowing which is which: a genuine Apple service part where one is made for this component, or premium aftermarket where none is. The warranty is 360 days on either.

We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Apple certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.

    Genuine, OEM and aftermarket: what the words actually mean

    What the €80 includes

    • The port inspected and cleaned before anything is replaced
    • A replacement charging assembly where cleaning is not enough
    • Charging and data transfer both tested
    • 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship

    No additional paid work happens without your approval. If the diagnostic finds something behind the part we are replacing, we stop, explain it and confirm the cost first.

    If getting here is the problem, we collect and return across Dublin from Monday to Friday. It costs the same repair price and carries the same 360-day warranty.

    Choose the part

    Two tiers, named before you agree.

    A charging port is a flex assembly rather than a tuned component, so the tier matters less here than almost anywhere else.

    iMEND Premium

    Original or manufacturer-grade part

    The manufacturer's own flex. Worth it on a phone still under its own warranty or one you intend to keep for years.

    €120

    Value Edition

    Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard

    Made to the original specification and, on a port, genuinely hard to fault. Fast charging negotiates the same, data works the same, and it costs less.

    €80

    The €80 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.

    This is one of the repairs where we will tell you to take the cheaper tier and put the difference towards a case. The part is not where a port repair goes wrong; the fitting is.

    The parts we use, in full

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Book online in about two minutes, or walk in without an appointment. Describe the symptom rather than the repair, it is more useful to us.

    Free diagnostic

    Nothing is opened or ordered until we know what failed. There is no charge for this and no obligation to go ahead afterwards.

    You approve the price

    The price is confirmed to you before anything begins, and it does not move afterwards unless you agree to something else.

    The repair is carried out

    It stays in the shop. The work is done on our own bench by the technicians who do it every day of the week.

    Bench testing

    Nothing is handed back untested. The repaired part and its neighbours are all checked first.

    Back in your hands

    Collected from Drumcondra, or returned to your door if we picked it up. Covered for 360 days.

    Before it goes back

    What we test every time.

    A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.

    Charging from the wall

    With the phone drawing real current, not just showing the lightning bolt.

    Charge and data on the same port

    Both, because a port can carry power and have lost its data pins.

    Cable retention

    A cable that will not stay in is not a repair we call finished.

    Fast charge negotiation

    Checked with a charger that supports it, because a port can charge slowly and look fine.

    Will my data be safe?

    This is hardware work. We do not need to go into your photos, messages or accounts to do it, and we do not.

    We do need to switch the device on and use it to test the repair, so we may ask for your passcode. If you would rather not hand it over, tell us and we will show you what we cannot verify without it. Any passcode you give us goes on the paper docket and the docket gets shredded. It is never stored in our system.

    Back the device up before any repair. Not because we expect to lose anything, but because a device that has already been dropped is one whose storage has already been shaken, and a backup costs nothing.

    Is it still water resistant afterwards?

    Treat the phone as no longer water resistant after any repair, including ours.

    Apple's IP68 rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed phone under controlled laboratory conditions. It is not a permanent property of the device. The seal degrades with age, heat and everyday knocks long before anybody opens it.

    Opening a phone means cutting through that seal. We refit the display with fresh adhesive, which restores a physical seal and keeps ordinary splashes and rain out. What we will not do is tell you it is back to IP68, because we have no way to test that and neither does any independent shop in Ireland.

    If your phone lives near water, say so when you book and we will talk you through what the adhesive does and does not cover.

    The 360-day warranty

    Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.

    What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.

    No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.

    Three ways to get it to us

    • Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
    • We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
    • Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.

    Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

    Asked all the time

    iPhone 15 Pro Max screen questions.

    €80, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.

    Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.

    Very often, and it is the first thing we check. Pocket lint compacts at the bottom of the port a little further with every cable insertion until the plug can no longer reach the pins. Where a clean fixes it, that is what you pay for.

    Carefully, with the phone off and a wooden toothpick. Never a pin or a paperclip, and never compressed air into the port. Bent pins turn a free clean into a paid replacement.

    It is a workaround, not a fix. It is slower, it makes more heat, and you still cannot move files or use wired accessories.

    Usually same day. On many devices the port is a plug-in flex and it is quick; on others it is soldered to the board and that is bench work rather than counter work.

    Almost always lint and sideways force. Charging with the phone in a pocket, or lying on a bed with the cable under tension, pushes against a connector that was designed to take the plug straight in and nothing else.

    iMEND is an independent repair service. Brand and model names are used only to describe the devices we repair. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorised service provider for any manufacturer.

    Why bring it here

    An independent workshop, not a kiosk.

    We are a dedicated repair bench in Dublin 3. That means we take on work authorised channels turn away, and we tell you honestly when something is not worth fixing.

    Diagnosed, not guessed

    Every device is tested before we quote, so you are not paying for a part that was never the problem.

    Parts that last

    Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.

    Your data stays yours

    Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.

    No fix, no fee

    If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.

    The screen stopped working on my iPhone 13 mini - it had recently been repaired elsewhere. I got a warm welcome in the shop, and a phone to borrow while mine was in for diagnostics and repair. An issue with the battery was also detected and I am very happy with the new screen and battery and appreciated the excellent service and communication.
