My Fairphone will not charge

If your Fairphone has stopped charging completely or will not turn on when plugged in, a few quick checks can help you identify the cause. Follow these steps to test your accessories and get your phone charging again.


How to troubleshoot a phone that will not charge

  1. Test alternative accessories
    Test your phone with a second compatible cable and wall charger to isolate an accessory failure.
  2. Inspect and clean the charging port
    Check the USB charging port on your phone and gently remove any lint or debris using a can of compressed air.
  3. Use a known working wall outlet
    Plug your adapter directly into a wall outlet that you know is working.
