It sounds like there might be some debris in the lightning cable port.


  • Unplug the USB cable at each end and plug it back in, just to make sure both ends of the connection are not loose.
  • If possible, switch out every component. Try a friend's cable; try a different usb port (or power/usb adapter); try your cable in a friend's phone.
  • Spray some compressed air into the charging port on the phone. Usually this will dislodge simple dirt and debris causing a faulty connection. This worked for my mom's iPad 2 with a 30-pin charging connector.
  • Try a non-conductive probe (like toothpicks or GUM flossers) to swab around inside of the port and dislodge larger stuck-on debris. (I got this tip from engadget http://www.engadget.com/2014/07/21/quick-and-easy-fix-for-lightning-port-chargin g-problems/?ncid=rss_truncated


(When this happened to me, I had some white lint in the port of my white iPhone, making it impossible to see before we got it out.)
