Smolder
I have a Samsung QX410, and I am unable to charge it. There's a light on the brick part of my charger that turns on when I plug it into an outlet, so I know it's not the charger. Whenever I plug in the charger, it won't charge my computer. It was working fine yesterday. Yesterday night, however, I plugged it in, but it wouldn't charge. I kinda tried to jiggle it around and eventually it started charging again, but now when I try to do that it will no longer charge. I'm at 90% battery right now, so I'm going to have to save my battery and turn it off, please be patient if you need additional details because I'm going to be using my phone for Yahoo! Answers until this is fixed.

Maybe it's the power jack that caused this problem.
Hope the info below may help.
Symptoms of a broken DC power jack:
- The laptop only operates when you hold the DC power plug in a certain direction (DC jack is broken or loose).
- The laptop only runs on battery power (no power is getting through the DC jack).
- The laptop gets no power at all.
- The laptop will not charge the battery.
- The laptop switches from AC power to battery power intermittently due to a loose or broken power jack.
- The laptop suddenly shuts off.
- The DC jack may feel loose.
- Sparks come out of the back of the laptop when you insert the power plug into the DC jack.
How some repair centers handle DC jack repair:
Most service centers don't want to deal with this problem by attempting to repair the DC jack. Many, including the large nationwide stores and the laptop's manufacturer, will either tell you the machine is not repairable or that they will need to replace the motherboard. These quotes usually run from $250 to as much as $800. They choose to ignore the fact that a broken DC power jack can be repaired without a motherboard replacement because they are not equipped with the tools or training to do DC power jack repair on your laptop.
How a DC jack breaks:
- The DC power jack on most models of laptops do not have enough reinforcement within the structure of the casing and motherboard to handle the stress caused by movement of the power plug.
- Some DC jacks simply fail under normal operation of your computer. After a year or two of usage, parts just come loose on certain models.
- Sometimes the laptop gets dropped and the plug jerks the DC jack loose.
- People, pets and vacuum cleaners trip over laptop power cords and break the DC power jack.
- The laptop is moved around a lot. After the DC jack is moved back and forth enough times, it comes loose.
- In some cases the DC jack was not soldered onto the motherboard well by the manufacturer.
