iPhone 4 32GB not charging, what can I do?

Hello everyone, i'm new here!

S? guys i got the next thing don't know if is a problem or is normal?

My iphone had an problem on a charging connector at main board it was ript off but all the connectors pads at board where intact so i toke my board to an professional shop where are specialized techniques they soldered that connector with a new connector for battery and it looks just like factory but stronger now! and i was happy with work they did, they soldered with microscope and professional tools. Now they tested and all is working proper, so i toke the board hope and put all together and turned on phone and all was fine working perfect, but my battary was about 4% or 3% when i turned it off on day that was going to fix board, when i put all together i was bit on phone till it shot down since battery where at zero.

I got now problem to charge since my charger plug is original from apple but the USB cable is not origianl and i belive the problem of charging is lay on that since my phone is running on the IOS (7.1.1) i belive this also have to do with the charging problem, so i plug the phone on the back and then it show the battery logo then its go away from screen and nothing eals i waited for cuple minuts and nothing i don't know if this is normal or not ?

But just in case i ordered a original USB cable for my iphone and now somthing like in 4 days it will be here at home then i have to see, but guys what you think about this ?

Thank you so much guys!

Hope to hear from you all soon :yes:



PS: FIXED IT WAS A BATTERY THAT WAS DEAD! :D

Welcome to iMore

Seeing as it's an i4 I would have bought a new battery seeing as you had it all apart already but here's hoping your problem is solved when your cable arrives
