Troubleshooting a Loose Port:


A. Try a Different Cable:

It may be the cable this is not --not the port. So, try connecting a different cable to it.


B. A Swollen Battery, Perhaps?:

The screen may lifting due to due to a corroding battery, which is a health hazard. So, I'd say return it. You have 14 days to do so. Or get this serviced.
