IPhone 6 won't charge & Rotation Issues

Hi Everyone
(let me start by saying im sorry for spelling/grammatical errors you encounter I am angrily typing this)
Brand new iPhone 6 probably 2 weeks old and it won't charge and when I can get it to charge battery drains to about 30% within maybe 4 hours...
So heres the first weird thing, the phone battery dies in about 4 hours *yay* and by dies I mean takes me down to say 31% at which things will start to crash so I cannot use them until the phone is charging/ charged..
then I have to have the phone plugged in to use it, and it slowly charges as I am using it (fair enough whatever) but the thing is it takes about 7 hours to fully charge and then the battery dies in about 4 so I dont understand what is going on
-sorry if im not explaining this well-
other issues sometimes the phone won't charge, I plug in the charger it vibrates and shows the charging signal and then straight away will vibrate again as if I have unplugged the phone at first it was doing this every minute or so and now it does it every 1 second vibrate charging vibrate not charging - assumed it was the charging cable unfortunately I have tested it with 4 cables and all have similar issues...  - I have noticed it does the instant in and out in and out continuous loop charging thing when plugged into a computer but when plugged into the wall charger it does it every 20 or 30 seconds..
This phone is brand new I dont understand the issue??
I also have the issue - might be a rotation issue might be an IOS update issue but when I am watching youtube or a video it will randomly swift back to horizontal rather than landscape and then switch back even when the phone hasn't been moved, I tested this last night by placing the phone down flat on a table top and it still continued to have this, happens maybe once a minute?
I am so frustrated as there are other little errors that I cant even be bother to go into right now
thanks team

HI Brian
thanks for your input I have tried everything and its not the charger as I have tried it on two different chargers and my laptop...
it seems to be charging okay at night time so will see how that goes
thanks again

  • IPhone 6 won't charge after 8.02 update

    Hi,
        Since the 8.02 update my iPhone 6 won't charge from any of my 3rd party cables and will only charge using the apple cable; despite my 3m cable being "apple approved" and the battery indicator showing its charging on the phone, the power still goes down even while it's plugged in and it's saying the phone is charging. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this issue since the update? All chargers are working fine on my iPad running 7.1.2 and worked fine while I was using 8.01 on my phone however since updating to 8.02 the only charger that seems to work is the official apple one which I'd rather not use as they aren't long enough. Any help would be appreciated.

    For the iPhone 4S, Apple seems to have used a faulty WiFi chip which in some cases seems not to be able to handle the load of the iOS. This can lead to overheating issues which can eventually cause a hardware failure
    As customers in good faith we bought this product
    We paid a large amount of money  (I paid some $800 last year) since we believed we bought a quality product in the believe we could use it -with good care of course- for at least 2, 3 or even 4 years to come
    We upgraded the firmware from iOS 5 or 6 to iOS 7 since Apple advised us to do so (as is very obvious from the constant messages in the settings menu of the iPhone and in iTunes)
    We followed all the regular procedures as advised by Apple in the upgrade
    There is no way how Apple could hold us responsible for having done a 'wrong' installation, making us responsible for our own actions.
    Apple has been aware for over a year the Apple 4S WiFi chip is not reliable (A Google search on iPhone 4S Wifi greyed out will proof my point) and was therefor fully aware this "greyed out" problem - which also occurred when iOS 6 was introduced, might very likely occur again with the introduction of iOS 7.
    Since Apple did not inform her customers of this risk the customers were not given the choice to either upgrade (knowing the risks) or staying with the previous (working) version.
    Apple does not enable the users to return to the previous version of iOS, and even if Apple would allow the users to return to a previous version, there is a great risk the hardware has become seriously damaged already in the upgrade to iOS 7, making this not a feasible option.
    As result of this us, we, customers are now stuck with an unusable iPhone for which we paid plenty of money and so support from Apple whatsoever in solving this issue.
    I feel that Apple should take their responsibility and help her customers in solving this quality issue.
    ( One thing I am sure of, if Apple would be a car manufacturer or an airplane manufacturer they would never get away with this, and would be forced to do a recall)
    My message to Apple:
    You know thousands of your customers are affected by this fault. It is now time to act. Taking responsibility never hurts (even if you for some reason feel you are not fully to blame) It gives you credit. And credit gives you loyal customers.

  • Iphone 5 won't charge, just blinks charge screen

    iphone 5 won't charge, just blinks charge screen?

    Hey there 100ire,
    It sounds like your iPhone is not turning on at all and just blinks an orange screen at you rather than booting. I would use these steps from the following article specifically, named:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on),  reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Iphone 5 won't charge unless I wiggle the cable around to fine a spot where it works. It's not the cable/charger as it works perfectly in other iPhone 5's. I haven't even had it a year so it's still under warranty and the phone is in very good condition

    Iphone 5 won't charge unless I wiggle the cable around to fine a spot where it works. It's not the cable/charger as it works perfectly in other iPhone 5's. I haven't even had it a year so it's still under warranty and the phone is in very good condition and has never been abused/dropped etc. I'm taking it into apple tomorrow for an appointment. Has anyone had this problem? if so, what happens? thanks

    I had the same problem and took my iPhone 5 into the Apple store.  What happened was a little embarrassing.  The genius took out a "special tool" (a paper clip) and began digging out an unimaginable amount of lint from the lightning connector port.  After that I was able to connect the cord and charge without any issues. 
    A few days after, I realized that my problems associated with the remote/mic not working on my ear pods might be due to the same issue.  (The volume and action buttons on the ear pods sometimes were not responsive)  I grabbed a paper clip and began digging.  Again, a large wad of lint came out of the headphone port and my ear pods have worked perfectly since.

  • My iphone 5 won't charge :(

    My iphone 5 won't charge with the cable I bought, I don't know if its because maybe it isn't an apple product? Can somone please help me! thank you

    If you did buy a 3rd party product, that could be a reason. Can you check with an original Apple USB cable?
    To ensure the best possible experience, Apple has created special compatibility requirements for accessory manufacturers. Products that are engineered and certified to be compatible have a "Made for" label on their package. To ensure compatibility when purchasing third-party accessories for use with your device, look for accessories that are authorized to use the "Made for" label associated with your device (see below).

  • My Iphone 5 won't charge while turned on.

    My iphone 5 won't charge at all while turned on. I have to turn off my phone in order to charge it. I can't really use my phone now because of the iPhone 5 battery life. I need help!

    You are going to have t take that to the apple store . Make a Genius Bar appointment and they will help you. Most likely they will give you a new phone. Hope this helps

  • My iphone 5 won't charge anymore

    my iphone 5 won't charge anymore

    Hello Angelpz11,
    I recommend this from our iPhone: Hardware Troubleshooting article found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802:
    Battery does not charge from the USB power adapter
    Important: Only original iPhone can be charged from a FireWire-based power source. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the battery may drain.
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    Also refer to iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery.
    Regards,
    Sterling

    After installing the new IOS my iphone 4s won't charge and less I restart it. Why is appl this happening? and What is apple doing about this?

    The iPhone has a hardware problem - with the battery or something else.
    The iPhone includes a one year warranty. If purchased new in October of 2012, it remains under warranty. Call AppleCare or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

  • My Iphone 5s won't charge on my macbook or connect to itunes.

    My Iphone 5s won't charge on my macbook or connect to itunes. I have used different USB cables and tried various troubleshooting ideas listed on this site but still it won't connect. It charges fine from the cable when it's plugged into a wall socket.
    My partner also has an iphone 5s and his phone charges from the MacBook and also connects to iTunes.
    Sounds like my phone might be faulty?

    Have you cleaned out the charging port area with a wooden toothpick or a soft clean brush? You would be amazed at the amount of fluff and debris that gets packed in there that you can't see.
