I have an iPhone 8 that is currently on a boot loop. I put it in restore mode and connected it to the computer. The computer won’t detect the phone. I tried another iphone the same cable and it connected. So I know it’s not the cable nor the computer. When the bad iPhone battery dies and it’s connected to the computer, the apple logo comes on suggesting that it’s charging however it won’t be detected by computer and iTunes if place in recovery mode. Can someone help me? Is this a hardware issue with the port? If yes, how so that it charges normally when connected to power and PC? What can I do? Thanks
hello akinlolu, if there is a problem with the charging port, please use inductive charging. This way you will charge your battery and you can move on. Unfortunately, I’m afraid your problem lies on much deeper than you think. You don’t write about the last moments of your phone - this often turns out to be important information. I think you should find a good repair shop. If the technician will wants to replace the charging port right away, find another (good!) Repair shop.
