iphone 4S electric shocks...

I have no such problem, nor does anyone I know. If you're concerned, bring your phone into Apple for evaluation.

Same thing - I phone 4s - in apple cradle - have put a volt meter on casing - its pushing out near 100V alternating current!!

You either need a new volt meter or you need to learn how to use the one you have. That's not possible. If it were true, your phone would be giving off quite a bit of smoke.

I have the same problem. This only happens when my phone is charging. Talking on the phone results in a slight but very irritating shock on my ear!!!

Hey guyz i am using an iPhone 4s and i am experiencing the same problem..i usually text and play games while the phone is charging.Yesteday while i was doing so my sis came and patted on my sholder and said she felt a vibration aNd that it was a shock..i argued with her coz i didnt experience anything. Immediately she called all my family members and they all felt the same thing while i was holding the iphone.Then when i tested it using a tester it was true current was passing through the metallic side 😮.i even went to my neighbours house which was completetely rewired 2 months back to see if it was a prob with my wiring..but thr also the same thing.Today i immediately contacted apple regarding this and they asked me not to use the iphone until their engineers checked it 😝.i do wear slippers at home i think that was y i didnt experince it.I alwas had a pricking sensation on my fingers wihile using it while charging but i though it was bcoz of the way i holded the phone.for the past 5 months i didnt knw abt it

I think this problem may occur if your power sockets are not properly earthed. I had this problem when visiting my family home at the weekend. My Grandfather built the house himself in the 50s and has always done his own (non-standard) electrical wiring. An electrician who recently fitted a power shower refused to use the existing system because it wasn't earthed correctly.

The problem is almost certainly the electrical wiring not your iPhone.

i have justhad the same thing, whilst charging my phone, i touched the bottom speaker area and felt a bolt through me, the whole phone is likeit. Are you still having probems or is there a solution

I have the same problem, I worked out why.

I get shocks whilst I am charging my 4s, and the reason why is that I charge with an iPad charger, not the phone charger, which is a little more 'punchier'.

I could fix it by switching to the original phone charger but I am quite happy charging with iPad rather than constatntly switching, (the iPhone charger is a pain to get out of the wall in my hard to reach place)

The same is happening to me, I'm ill at the moment so I'm lying in bed listening to music and my 4s keeps shocking my back and elbows. Something like this surely would've been tested right?

Since as long as i remember I would have this problem in two places I lived in and on a train. On the train from Coventry to London my elbow would get a bad shock on the metal seat while holding the phone.

I took the phone back to Apple and they replaced it, I am getting it again, totally Apple cable and plug, the cable is brand new and our electrical work is certified by an electrician.

Never had this happen to me. It's probably the normal electric discharge that everyone has once in a while.
