replaced lightning port now phone says device not supported

Hi,

I had a little bit of water damage and had to replace the lightning port and headphone jack (everything else works perfectly). now when I connect it to an apple certified cable and power adapter it makes the charging noise and starts to charge. then a message pops up "device may not be supported" then the charging symbol disappears, i just checked it and it says that it is at 6% whereas previously it was at 4%, I dont know if its the battery playing up again (showing the wrong percentage of charge) or its actually charging.

thx in advance

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Try another charging cable then try another charging port.

Other than that it might be charging IC.

Almost certainly the charging IC is bad. This is a repair that requires micro soldering skills and equipment.
