Chosen Solution
Hey Guys ( and girls :) ) I have an iphone 6 here with following problem I have this iphone 6 from a friend , she said she cannot charge the phone. The phone was just shutting down, she tried to charge it , but it was not possible After investigating : no power was left in the phone when i had my hands on. I tried a new cable : no solution i tried a other charger : no solution i tried both : no solution I tried to charge the phone during night ( when i connect it to a cable and a power outlet the phone lights up showing the battery with blinking red bar) after charging for the night ( +- 8 hours) : nothing phone still dead There was no indication that the battery was dying .. no problems before. When i tried to connect to itunes : nothing… I tried to connect to 3utools to check battery life: nothing ( because phone is so empty) I was thinking it would be the lightning module , but he is recognizing the cable … so could it be a bad battery , regardless that she never sufferd any battery problem ? Tonight i will open the phone and measure out the battery , but it would be nice if i hear your opinions… thanks in advance Best regards Kevin
So what do you get on the screen now? Just low battery icon with charging cable shown or just battery icon when trying to plug in charger? Does the charging cable go in fully? There should be little to no gap between the white plastic casing of the charging cable and iPhone metal housing. Also check the charging port with a flashlight there should be 8 pins visible and not pushed down.
I got the same problem few days ago. The reason on my iPhone 6 is battery dead (shutdown directly with 40%). plug in cable to charge and iPhone will turn on but will shutdown again. Replace new battery fixed this problem. Hope it helps.
