Any particular cell phone? Not all EP connectors are the same. If in

I was taught many years ago NOT to use a rubber eraser to clean contacts.
The theory was that the rubber might leave a sulfur containing residue
that will encourage corrosion.

You may agree or disagree but prudence (a fine girl) dictates caution.

Use a plastic eraser (used for erasing marks from mylar sheets). These are
available at drafting and art supply stores.

Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
