Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of Galaxy A8 charging issues include debris in the charging port, worn or damaged charging cables, software glitches, water or sweat exposure, and battery health decline.
- Debris in port or bent pins can stop charging and trigger blinking indicators.
- Damaged or counterfeit charging cables fail to establish a reliable connection.
- Software glitches or background apps can interfere with charging detection.
- Water exposure corrode contacts and trigger short circuits.
- Battery health degrades over time, reducing charging efficiency and capacity.
Prevention tips: keep the port clean; use the supplied or approved Samsung charger; avoid charging in damp areas; close background apps during charge; replace cables immediately if any fraying or heat is felt.
- Use a high-quality genuine cable and charger.
- Clean the port gently with a soft brush, power down before cleaning.
- Do not force-fit cables or bend cords near the port.
- Keep software updated to minimise charging glitches.
- Consider a battery health check every 12-18 months.
When to repair vs replace: If the port is physically damaged but the battery holds charge, repair is often cost-effective; if battery capacity is under 60% or multiple faults exist, replacement may be better.
- Repair when the issue is port or cable reliability without battery impact.
- Replace when battery health is poor or port damage is extensive.
- Seek professional diagnosis if you’re unsure; avoid DIY fixes that risk further damage.
What to look for in a quality repair service: Accredited technicians, OEM-grade parts, transparent pricing, and a clear warranty period.
- Clear diagnostic report before work begins.
- On-site testing of charging after repair.
- Realistic timelines and no hidden fees.
- Strong customer support and post-service follow-up.
Red flags to avoid: Extremely low prices, unknown parts, no warranty, vague timelines, or a lack of post-repair testing.
- No visible parts sourcing or supplier details.
- Unclear warranty terms or short coverage.
- Pushy upsells or pressure to rush the repair.
- No option for on-site or mobile service.
Maintenance guidance after repair: follow-up checks help ensure lasting performance.
- Use a dedicated Samsung-certified charger.
- Keep the charging port clean and dry.
- Regularly inspect the USB-C port for signs of wear.
- Avoid exposing the device to moisture or extreme heat.
- Schedule a battery health check if charging issues recur.
What Our Customers Say
I dropped my Samsung Galaxy A8 and it wouldn’t charge. I headed to iRepair Guys Marsh on Westbourne Road and they fixed it in under an hour for £40. The charging port was replaced and now it charges reliably every time. Much faster and friendlier than an Apple Store, and the Marsh team knew the Marsh/Almondbury area inside out.
We run a busy design studio in Town Centre and one device stopped charging. The iRepair Guys mobile team came to our office in Lindley and fixed it the same day. Clear quote, no hidden costs, and far more convenient than sending devices to Apple for weeks.
As a student near Almondbury, price matters. The Galaxy A8 charging issue was fixed for £40 at Marsh and it’s working perfectly now. It’s noticeably cheaper than Apple and the job was done with care in a friendly, campus-friendly way.
Living in Moldgreen, I used the mail-in option first but then opted for the local Marh store when I needed it fast. The team confirmed the issue, cleaned the port, and had me back up and charging in no time. Great service and no fuss.
As a busy professional in the town, I appreciated the same-day mobile service. They came to my office in Birkby, diagnosed the charging fault quickly, and fixed it on site. competed with Apple in speed and they use better parts with a proper warranty.
We have two Galaxy A8s between us and needed a reliable fix quickly. The Marsh team handled both devices on the same day and offered a loyalty-friendly approach. It’s reassuring to have a local, friendly service around Dalton and Brighouse that keeps devices charging without the Apple price tag.

Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
Galaxy A8 charging issues are typically caused by port debris, a worn charging connector, or a failing charging flex. Our technicians perform a thorough inspection, clean and reseat the port, and replace components only when necessary. We verify with multiple cables and chargers to ensure reliable charging.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Common causes include dust and lint in the port, frequent plugging and unplugging, damaged charging cables, and sometimes moisture or corrosion. Regular maintenance reduces risk, and using the correct charger helps prolong port life.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
For a Galaxy A8 with a charging issue, repair is typically the best option if the port or cable is salvageable. If multiple issues arise or the board is damaged, we will provide transparent guidance on whether repair or device replacement offers better value for money.

If you have several problems, such as charging, screen or battery concerns, we offer a multi-repair discount where valid.
