Chosen Solution
I have an iPhone 5 that I am not using any longer and was selling. Before I sold it I upgraded it to iOS 10, reset it and charged it up. The lady that bought it from me told me that she could not get it to charge at all so I had her return it. Sure enough, the phone would not recognize any charging cable. I tried checking for lint in the charging port and found none. So, I put in a different battery that was already charged up. It started right up but still wouldn’t charge. I replaced the charging port and still not charging. I’m at a loss now. Does anyone have a suggestion? If it’s logic board related, I do not feel capable of performing that level of repair but would like to know what to have someone check for me. Thank you.
can the iPhone be restored in itunes? if not working after clean reinstall, probably non original charger and burned U2..try IOS 9.3.5 to install..
