So I have got this odd problem with my 4s and the lightening charging cable (first one was of Targus and then bought a new 200 wali cable)...Now what happens is the switched off (battery presumably 0%) charges fine till like 3/4% and when the phone turns on automatically, The charging cable fails to function and doesn't charge anymore no matter what. I have a journey ahead in few days and this is really annoying me please help me...

that doesn't seem to be a problem with the charging cable but with the battery.

does it work fine with some other cable? a temporary solution would be to not let your phone turn off due to low batter.

Experienced the same issue, tried different cables all work fine when connected via usb to laptop or pc.

But when connected with charger same thing happened, recently I updated my 4s to 8.1.1 and now the issue is solved.

Its probably the charger issue but mine is solved without changing charger.

Thankyou for the reply guys and Yeah i tried connecting it with pc but that didn't work either. Guys I have an UPDATE

I connected the phone with charger and left it for like 6 hours. And guys it seems it is charging albeit "VERY SLOWLY", the phone charged itself upto 36% in 6 hours... Any suggestions/ solutions about what should or can be done?

i can only think that the charging adapter has gone faulty of you need to get the battery checked.

you can try using another adapter on your phone or your adapter on another phone. also wapda key taraf say load poora hai?

I tried a different 'charging cable' and Just tried a different charging adapter aswell but it didn't work. and yes the electricity load from wapda is fine...Guess I have to get the battery checked from somewhere in Lahore... Can you please recommend me some authentic/reputable shop to get my iPhone battery checked, If possible it should be close to DHA phase 5 :D:D

ask some friends for a personal referral. you will get ripped off in the local market. try not to leave your phone with them overnight. backup your stuff and perform a wipe before going to them.

is there an option in IOS to calibrate the battery levels?

Are there any Premium sellers at PG or respected sellers who consider this repairing business ?

Not sure about any one on PG, but keep looking. Someone ought to refer a good shop.

Next thing to do after repairing your phone should be to GET A NEW one.
