Why won't chargers charge my iPhone 5?

I got three chargers in a row and each of them say "this accessory may not be supported". I'm a tech guy so I know what chargers I need. It works on my friends phones. I don't know what's wrong though. It seems like a problem with the phone unless I was able to get three faulty chargers in a row.

Lightning cables have authentication chips. If you're using third party lightning cables, then the phone will say that.

Yea, that could be the case, i would suggest going to an apple store and having them determine if it is an internal issue.

  • IPhone loses charge overnight.a lot of charge. Why? My iPhone 4S was on 5.1.1 but i did restore the software last week and used a backup to also restore the files. Since then I have been losing about 35-40% of my battery overnight, I'm a very power-conscious person, I only use wi-fi, 3g when i need to and i usually keep everything off except data, notifications are to a minimum and location services are off as well as brightness being as low as possible. What is going on? Any help is appreciated
  • IPhone 5 chargers. Is is my phone or the chargers? I received my iPhone 5 in December 2012.It is now may 2013 and I have been through 5 iPhone chargers. The charger that came with my phone would work until about march then I had 2 others chargers which both broke a week or two later. Then I ordered 2 more from the apple store and both broke at the same time in may. Should I get my phone checked out or is it the apple chargers? They all still look perfectly brand new. They not damage or torn up or anything. They just stop charging my phone!
