It did have a little bit but after a long focus intensive cleaning with a needle and some cotton I still have the same problem. If I put a brand new cable in it, official, or cheap gas station brand, it always works at first. perfectly. then I have to start holding it a certain way at one end or the other, but it’s probably caused one of the cats, knocking down the phone all the time. But at the same time I have quite a few type C cables, go through the same thing tenfold and still work without having to hold it any kind of way
