Why won't my iPhone 5 charge? - 2

When iPhone in to charge it doesn't turn on. Sometimes it will show that its charging for hours and not turn on and sometimes it just does nothing. A couple weeks ago i dropped my iPhone in the shower and it landed in an inch or two of water for only a few seconds. I quickly took it out and dried it with a towel and then a hair dryer on low heat. My phone has worked fine since then up until now. Before it died completely it gave me the warning message that said something like "this cable or accessory is not compatible with this device." when i plugged it in. I've used different charges from the wall and the computer so i doubt its the charger. My phone is really new so i don't think it would be a dead battery either.

what can i do to solve this problem?

Put it in rice.

This is a common symptom after water damage. Putting it in rice helps, but chances are there's damage to the charging port and or battery. We can help you with this. Give me a call at myphoneisbroken.com

  • Why won't my iphone 4 charge via laptop? I'm using a Gateway NV53 and there's four USP ports and none of them register that the iphone is recognized. I have gone to Apple to resolve this issue but to no avail. My USB cord is brand new and it works on my other laptop. Any computer whiz in the house?
