iPhone 6 - charging port problem

Hello. I have iPhone 6, a few weeks ago i’ve decided to change charging port, because charging every day was more difficult and cleaning was not helpful. I bought one on marketplace. When i’ve changed it, i noticed, that signal is very poor and sometimes was no service, and baterry was dripping very fast. On original port it was okay, when i’ve change it again. I bought another one, and i had the same problem. I decided to use my iPhone like iPod, but a few days ago it charged to ~10% and stopped. iPhone see charger, but won’t charge. Then it turned off. Now when i plug charger, iPhone doesn’t react, there is only black screen. But sometimes when i reset phone several times (hold home and lock buttons for 10 seconds) it charge and turn on, but charge only to about 5% and stop. I changed port few times beetwen first from marketplace and second (original don’t work anymore) and i have still the same problem. I want to buy original, used port from someone on internet, but i’m not sure that problem is with port or phone and i don’t want to lost my money. Thank you for every answer and sorry for my english, it’s no my native language. :)

If you still have charging problems with different lightning ports the problem maybe not be there but with the logic board, especially if you used aftermarket chargers and cables. They have a tendency to create problems with a chip part of charging circuit and needs to be replaced by some shop into microsoldering repairs.

Signal problem usually comes from bad quality replacements that have lousy conductive adhesives (the gold looking part).

The gold adhesive is just one shield ground

Problem is usually a bad coax flex, damaged MHF connector on the motherboard or damaged inductor on the flex

The inner core goes through the flex stuck onto the loudspeaker

90% of charging port flex cables on the market are cheap copy

Check the FPC on the motherboard where you connect the charge prot flex, it may be damaged and shorted or have fluff stuck in it
