My phone currently doesn't charge with an Apple certified iPhone cable.
But it charges with a 3rd party, non-certified iPhone cable.
What could be the problem?
Is this a good question?

Most of the time, I usually try to install a new charging port flex cable to see if this solves the issue. If the issue still persist, then the issue lies within the motherboard and would require some motherboard work.
Was this answer helpful?
@lax21baumann I went to a nearby small convenient phone repair shop & had him inspect my phone & he tried using a different charging port flex cable on it, but to no avail. Not sure if he's an expert (bc he doesn't look like it's his profession, just his hobby I would assume), but he said it could be a software issue, or a motherboard issue. Since he didn't seem sure with himself, I asked here. But now that you're the second person to say it's a possible motherboard issue, I guess that must be it. Thank you.

Ian Amanté , Apple certified iPhone cable is bad, test it if you can with a DVOM.
