#1. Clean the charging port

One of the main reasons your iPhone won’t charge is quite very simple; the iPhone Charging Port is blocked with gunk, debris, dust, pocket lint, or some other obstruction. Start the charging port cleaning process by using a flashlight and take a deep look at the bottom of charging point of your iPhone. If you find any gunk or debris in there, it may keep the lightning cable from making a strong connection with your iPhone. There are heaps of connectors down there and if an inappropriate one is closed off, your iPhone won't charge by any means.

If still, your power adapter won’t start working, swap it out with another one you have, or borrow one from someone. After following these steps, if find your iPhone starts charging, then, probably you've found the main culprit! iPhone Lightning Cables If you are using an iPhone version 5 or later, then you must have a Lightning Cable to charge.

#3. Check for recent Software Updates

When you put your iPhone on charging, charging accessories, hardware parts, and even iPhone’s software also work together to empower the charge to go ahead. If your iPhone needs a software update, it may charge slowly or it won’t charge at all even though all your iPhone charging accessories are operating fine. So, if your iPhone still isn't charging, ensure your iPhone software have updated recently and that your iPhone model is compatible with all new software updates. iOS is currently running at a version of 11.2.5, which keeps running on all iPhone’s renditions 6 and later.

#4. Check the wall outlet

After following the long list of troubleshooting iPhone charging tips, you must also check your charging power source. In case you're charging your iPhone from a PC's USB port, ensure the PC is completely awake; make sure it’s not in rest or hibernation mode. Also, give a try using a different USB port, in case that the USB port you were utilizing has fizzled. Try not to charge from a USB port incorporated with your keyboard or USB hub. Connect it directly to a USB port on the PC itself. if still it won’t start working, plug it direct into a wall power outlet with an AC connector like the one that accompanied your iPhone. If you have been utilizing an AC adapter al the time, at that point try an alternate one – fetch one from a friend has an iPhone or buy a new one or use the one that accompanies an iPad.

#5. DFU Mode and Restore

Easy way to get dfu mode with animated live clock

Now I do learn the experience, and able to get into dfu mode as easy as pie by using an interesting live clock for counting. This post will show you how to do that.

So, what dfu mode really is ?

DFU mode means a stage which makes your iphone can connect with iTune without loading the whole iphone operating system or boot loader (which is defferent from recovery mode). DFU is mean for Device Firmware Update.

When do I need getting into dfu mode ?

The most reason that we need to enter DFU mode is to change the firmware, which is needed in these circumstances :

Jailbreak your iphone for installing Cydia.

Downgrade your iphone to a lower version firmware (from 5.1.1 to 5.0.1 for example)

Restore your iphone to the original factory setting with lasted ios firmware.

Instructions to get into dfu mode

Connect your iphone to iTune (plug it to PC or MAC, open iTune).

Slide to unlock it.

Make it offline (open Settings / Airplane Mode) to be not disturb by incoming call or messages.

Now at the same time hold the Home and Sleep button and look at the clock below and start counting to 10 seconds.

At the 10th second, release the Sleep but still holding the Home button for more several seconds, until you see this itune message.

Congratulation ! You are now in DFU mode.

You can now continue to restore/jailbreak your iphone.

Some notices with dfu mode

When in DFU mode, the iphone screen is totally black, there are nothing on the screen. It's different from the recovery mode.

Maybe you will fail for some first times, you need to practise for several times before success. The tip is to pick up an approriate position second for easily counting ( at position 5 10 15 ... for example ).

For some reason, you may get stuck in DFU mode. Dont be panic ! To exit DFU mode just hold the combination of Home and Sleep button for a while and the iphone will restart as usual.

Good luck to you !
