After like 2-3 months, every micro I've ever had has required me to stretch the cable in some way (i.e., place the phone on top of the cable) in order for it to make contact. Never had this problem with USB C.

It's usually pocket funk, in my experience.

Make a small tool (I use plastic food packaging from something like fresh strawberries) to grab and hook that stuff out of there.

And then, it works fine.
