Hi. Recently, the USB port on my Samsung Galaxy Note II stopped working. I can't charge it at all. I looked this problem up online, and the solutions seemed to be either restarting the phone, turning it on and off or getting some repairs. I tried the first two options with no success. So I think I'm going to have to take my phone in for some repairs. Can I go to a Verizon store for this or what? Is there anything else I can do?

burjam,
I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your devices charging port. We want you to always have a working device. The steps you have tried are the proper ones to check for resolution. We also suggest trying to clean any debris out of the charging port as well as trying different chargers. If that does not work, and you are under warranty or have insurance, then you are able to get a replacement phone. We do suggest having the phone checked out at a corporate store to check for any possible damage vzw.com/storelocator . Going directly through Samsung is also an option, which I myself have used. You do need to be under warranty in order to take advantage of that. Let us know what route you would like to take.
Thank you,

Verizon Wireless doesn't repair phones. You can contact Samsung for your repair options.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Thank you for the concern. I already tried cleaning out the debris, but that
didn't seem to work. I don't live anywhere near a store with Samsung
customer service. So I mailed the phone to someone I know who can get to a
store with Samsung customer/product service. Hopefully they should be able
to fix the problem.

Thanks for trying so hard to get your phone working, burjam. Since Samsung manufactures the phone, they're the experts and I'm sure you'll be able to get options when they take a closer look at it. Keep us posted if you need to discuss alternate options for replacement through Verizon Wireless when they take a closer look.
Thank you

I am having the same issue. What was the outcome of your issue? Did Samsung fix the problem for free?
