> - pocket lint routinely finds its way into the jack. I find this issue with the lightning connector; around once every 6 months I have to take a drawing pin and clear out the dirt (it is often mounted on the handlebar of my bike) and other crap that gets in there so it will charge again. I've never had an issue with the 3.5mm jack.
