Q: Iphone 5 won't charge unless I wiggle the cable around to fine a spot where it works. It's not the cable/charger as it works perfectly in other iPhone 5's. I haven't even had it a year so it's still under warranty and the phone is in very good condition

Another "special tool" success story reporting in. You da real MVP

i'm using a paper clip also but will it shock me?

No, it won't shock you. However, it is within the realm of possibility that you could short something, though it's not terribly likely. I prefer non-conductive tools.

YO bro I had this problem like 2 mins ago.. I just took a paper clip and you would not believe how much lint was in the port!!! Took it all out and I'm good to go... Hope this helps you or anyone with the same issue

That's a common cause of connectivity issues. I'm glad you found it and have fixed your issue.
