I have a problem. I changed the in 2020 and i have not used it much. It looks whole. I also changed the charging port in 2020. Now when i insert the charger it makes the standard sound when you insert the charger and then it is the same again. I have tried different chargers. What can the fault be?

You... changed the battery 5 years ago, when your phone was already almost 5 years old. See where i'm getting at here. :)

This phone is very, very old. It's not worth spending anything on it, the technology is utterly obsolete and new parts haven't been made for a very long time. Probably no new batteries manufactured for the good part of the decade since its release, too. Which means that any new batteries you get, are also probably not gonna last very long. The chemistry is already damaged by the ravages of time itself.

My suggestion to you, see if you can grab a 3rd generation iPhone SE on a good deal, now that the 16E is out. While basic, if that museum relic of a XA kept you satisfied, the SE 3 is going to be a treat - and Apple's likely to support it (with iOS upgrades and full same-day service available) until 2030 or so. If cash is even tighter, grab something like a Galaxy A15. It's Android and you should be able to adapt easier to it, but... low end Android phones aren't a great experience at all. Then again, you are still rocking a XA, so I doubt you care.

If you live in a region where Sony still sells their phones... Xperia 10 Mark VI. But Sony's phone business is in decline again and... there's a rumor going around that the Mark VII for 2025 is being cut off... not to mention they're pricy for what they offer. Wouldn't recommend.
