Anyone with an iPhone 15 series device find their USB-C port to be loose? When I have it plugged in the car for CarPlay my cable frequently pops out if I nudge it accidentally. I’ve tried different brands of cables, and all of them wiggle loose eventually.
For context I’m using an iPhone 15 Pro.
I would suggest a toothpick next time. If you short out the right pins with a needle you can damage your phone.
It’s possible to short, but the port pin outs show 2 or 3 pins between voltage lines and grounds.
It’s a pretty small port and a toothpick doesn’t fit well around the post in the centre if you want to get to the very bottom. I borrowed a very fine sewing needle from stepmom for port cleaning duties.
I did turn it off first though.
