As far as blocks go, the OEM ones are always the best. For cables, try and get one that isn’t complete garbage, they’re cheap, but break really quickly.

I am guessing there both micro-USB or type c, just find a cable and the a USB plug, Don't get the cheapest as they are guaranteed to break but by the same token don't buy the most expensive ones as they are pointless. You could probably go to a local phone shop or supermarket and pick one up. 

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
