iPhone Not Charging? Start Here.

What This Repair Covers

• Professional cleaning of lint- and dust-blocked ports
• Lightning and USB-C port (flex assembly) replacement
• Charging IC and power-circuit diagnosis when the port isn’t the cause
• Microphone and speaker check (they share the port flex on many models)
• Wired and wireless charging verification after repair

Signs You Need This Repair

• Cable must be held at an angle to charge
• Charging works intermittently or very slowly
• Port feels loose or the cable falls out
• "This accessory may not be supported" errors with good cables
• No charging response at all

What Could Be Wrong

Debris in the port

Pocket lint compacts into a solid pad at the bottom of the port, stopping the connector seating fully. Cleaning often solves it completely.

A worn or damaged port

Thousands of insertions, or one hard yank on the cable, can loosen or break the port contacts.

Cable or adapter fault

Frayed cables and failing adapters are common, and easy to rule out before opening the phone.

Charging circuit fault

A failure in the power-management or charging circuit on the board — often after a bad charger or liquid exposure — needs board-level repair.

A battery at end of life

A badly degraded battery may refuse to take charge properly even with a healthy port.

What We Check

Before any quote, and before anything is opened up:

• Inspect and safely clean the port before anything else
• Test with known-good cables and adapters
• Measure whether the phone is drawing charge current at all
• Check the charging circuit and power management on the board
• Assess battery health and charging behaviour together

How We Handle It

A surprising number of "broken charging port" iPhones just need a professional port cleaning — compressed lint at the bottom of the port stops the connector seating fully. We check this first, because it’s the cheapest possible fix and takes minutes.

When the port itself is worn or damaged, we replace the charging flex assembly, which on most iPhones also carries the primary microphone and other components — all of which we test after the swap. If the port and cable are fine but charging still fails, the fault is usually in the charging circuitry on the logic board (commonly the charging IC), which we repair at component level rather than telling you to replace the phone.

Your Repair Options

Port cleaning

Where debris is the cause, that is the whole repair. No parts, no drama.

Charging port replacement

The worn port assembly is replaced and charging tested with multiple cables and adapters.

Board-level charging repair

If the fault is in the charging circuit itself, that is microsoldering work rather than a parts swap.

Models We Work On

Lightning and USB-C iPhones — iPhone 7 to the iPhone 18 series.

Still using an older device? That's completely fine. We've been repairing Apple devices for 10+ years, so older models are part of what we see every day. Whether a specific repair is possible depends on the model, parts availability, the type of damage and the device's overall condition — tell us what you have and we'll give you a straight answer.

What Affects the Price

We don't publish fixed prices, because an honest quote depends on what we actually find. These are the things that move it:

• Whether it turns out to be cleaning, a port replacement or board-level work
• Your exact model and port type
• Whether liquid damage or corrosion is involved
• Whether the battery also needs replacing

Diagnosis carries a fee — waived when you go ahead with the repair. You get a clear quote before any work starts. Send us your device details or call +91 91271 99144 for a device-specific estimate.
