Hi, I had the battery replaced few years ago under the Apple replacement policy. I have tried two chargers and cables but the phone does not charge since yesterday. Sometimes when I plugged in the cable, there was a message that I had to unlock the phone to use usb but the lighting symbol which indicates charging did not show up. What could be wrong?
Got a tip for us?

iPhone 6s+ not charging

Just a long shot, but double check that there isn’t fuzz built up in the charging slot. Paper clip works.
Doesn't paper clip cause short circuit? Anyway, checked already. Strange thing is when plugged into the USB port of my PC, it charges. The two different pairs of charger and cable are able to charge another iPhone but not my iPhone 6S+. So, where is the problem?!
If it’s charging when connected to your pc but not the wall chargers - the problem is with the wall charger
But I tried two pairs of charger-cable on another phone. No problem in charging it. Only with my 6S+.
Examine the inside of the lightning port carefully with a magnifying glass & flashlight. Stuff can get jammed all the way in the back.
