Do I have a bad USB port



My Tab S 10.5 is all of a sudden not charging. I have it set to make a sound when plugged in and every ten seconds or so it makes the sound and the charge indicator goes on and off. I'm not touching it at all. It's like it is constantly connecting and disconnecting by itself.

I turn it off and try to charge it when off. Every few seconds the screen turns on with the battery charge picture. It's using more power doing that than it is getting from the charge. I finally have to unplug it to save what battery i have left.

I'm using the Samsung usb cable and charger but I've tried different cable and charger with same result. Do I have a bad usb port? It seems so. I have to wiggle the plug a little at times make charge indicator comes on. But as I said, it's going on and off without me touching it.

It's the weekend so I can't call Samsung. I hope it's covered by warranty.
