Cheap Cable broke my iPhone?

So like i bought some time ago a knockoff cable for my iphone 6s and i left it charging over night, and idk what happened but in the morning the phone wouldn’t show any signs of life, i tried everything already, i tried another cable from a friend, another plug and nothing, black screen, i left it charging with my friend’s cable for an whole hour and still nothing, someone knows what it could be? i hope it isn’t motherboard damage or something ;(

_Pepsi-Trip_ I would suggest you start with a new battery. If that should not work try a new charging port and if that does not work you may have charging issues related to the Tristar IC (U4500) IC. Of course that would require you to do some finicky boardlevel repair and requires special skills and tools.

For future notice. Dont bug a cheap cable. It should be mfi certified, and shouldnt be less than 10$ (there may be good ones below that price point, but it is risky) Anker is a brand of charger I would recommend, if you dont want to spend 30$ on the apple official charger
