If there are no signs of physical damage to the charging port or the phone charging cable move on to the next solution.

Check the electrical outlet.

One of the easiest tricks to do, you only need an electrical outlet. Plug the power cord into the electrical socket to see if it works or not. If the Galaxy S21 5G starts charging, then the problem is with the electrical source.

If the power cord does not work on this electrical socket, try using another socket or extension cable. After you are sure that the electrical outlet is fine move on to the next solution.

Check the power adapter.

It does not matter if you are using the official charger by Samsung or from a third-party manufacturer, you must check if it is the problem.

During the charging process, the Charger converts the DC electricity to AC to charge the Galaxy S21. Which makes the charger an essential component to check whether it’s working fine or not.

Test the charger by connecting any other device to it and see if they respond or not. If not, then you must use a different charger.

Check the charging cable.

When troubleshooting for the culprit it’s best to check each suspect. Yes, do not forget to use the original cable to charge the Galaxy S21. Look for any physical damages to the charging cable, it may be broken or something else. Check both connectors if there are any uneven or bent pins. Make sure there is no dirt in any of the connectors. One way to check if the cable that you are using is fine or not is to connect it to a computer. See if the computer detects the device or not.
