iPhone 4S charging issues?

Thanks everyone for your suggestions with regards to the Otterbox cases.  I ordered the Commuter series so I'm excited for it to finally arrive!

However, I was wondering if anyone else had an issue with charging.  I was just able to pick up my phone last night from UPS and plugged it in, where it said it was charging.  This morning, my phone wasn't charged.  I tried unplugging the power cord and replugging it in, the phone still didn't recognize the charge.  I took the cord to the bathroom to try a GFCI socket and had no problem having it charge for 30+ minutes.  I brought the phone into work and am having the same problem with it staying charging and then even recognizing the charge from the electrical outlet when I try to unplug and replug in.

I tried a quick Google search for fixes but doing a reset and trying to blow out any dirt/dust didn't seem to make a difference.  Anyone else having problems?  I don't know if this would be a battery issue (can't imagine so since it charged on the GFCI socket no problem) or a cord issue or something else.

Update- I tried the adapter I used for my Droid and it appears that it is an adapter problem as I found another Apple cord in my purse.  Problem solved but something to possibly be aware of if others are having problems.

Re: iPhone 4S charging issues?

  • Ah thanks for the heads up. I was just googling this issue, and all I could find were a couple of people having issues with their car chargers when they updated to ios 5.

    But I'm glad you were able to figure out the problem.
