Unfortunately they often strike up issues that are very silly and shouldn’t happen with smartphones. But they do. One of those problems is the iPhone won't charge problem, but we are here to help you to fix this issue. So what if, one day the iPhone you own refuses to take charge anymore, Maybe you just plugged in the device to a power outlet on one fine morning, sipped your warm coffee and noticed the conflict just then - nothing is happening to the battery indicator.
Now digging a little deeper, experts have found that the iPhone won't charge problem isn’t associated with iPhone hardware in usual cases. So in case you had been wondering, how it is a software issue, then here’s a very brief non-technical breakdown. The battery isn’t directly connected to the lightening port or 30-pin old style connector on an iPhone. Instead, the lightning port connects to an IC which could detect whether the connection made is a power input, computer connection or some dock.
If it’s a power adapter connection, the power would then be routed to the battery so that the iPhone can recharge itself. That’s where the problem lies in most cases where the iPhone won’t charge. Unless the IC is broken, it’s a problem with the iOS infrastructure caused either by a file corruption or by some other apps. Few troubleshooting attempts for this common problem have rendered to be highly effective.
1. Assess the Phone. Is it an iOS Crash, A smartphone is a computer in a miniature form. And just like your desktop or laptop computer, it can freeze and crash. In case of an iOS crash, many users can’t distinguish between whether it’s a dead battery, no charging issue or just a simple software care.
With all the scares they rush to the nearby Apple authenticated service centers and end up feeling like a fool. There’s no shame in being fooled like this though - everything has a first time. But now that you know your potential chances of being fooled by a human-made creature, why don’t you check whether the iPhone is simply having its downtimes or the battery isn’t actually taking charge, A dead, blank, or unresponsive display doesn’t necessarily mean the iPhone is gone or dead. In case of software crash the phone refuses to do anything at all, even charge!
That is because the logical boards inside is controlled by iOS itself and when the software is out of order, there’s no one to route electricity from the power input to the battery. If you have an iPhone with blank display and it won’t charge or it won’t turn on, try a hard reset. Holding down the power and home buttons for quite a long time does the magic. However, for long time it means 30 seconds straight - even though the figure looks quite small in fonts, it might seem like forever when you’re actually doing it.
Most users just give up before 30 seconds and fail to revive their iPhone from a frozen state. Hold these two buttons and hold them down for 30 seconds or little more, if the iPhone was frozen it shall now start with the shiny Apple logo. After reboot, the phone is very much likely to charge if there’s no other trouble in the software end. Users of older variants of iPhone, for example anything between iPhone 3GS to iPhone 5 may have a faulty home button.
After prolonged period of usage those older generation buttons without Touch ID are susceptible to trouble and they may take a little more of workaround to hard reset a smartphone. If the software hard reset drill hasn’t solved the problem on your iPhone, maybe software has nothing to do with the trouble.
Maybe iOS isn’t messed up nor is the power IC inside the mainboard. What if the problem lies beneath the lightning cable or lightning port and you just don’t know it yet, Before you start to inspect your cable, make sure you didn't got a This accessory may not be supported error. The data cable that comes with an iPhone is durable, but even durability has its limits.
