Well, this issue is caused by bad tristar chip and/or charging port, at the time I did not know about tristar issues.

"Hey badalbaidar07,

Try first to open iTunes, than connect the phone. You probably will be able to open it in iTunes, it's in charging mode when you connect it and you need to get it out of that mode."

"I have the same issue. Before this problem appear, the iPhone 6 sometimes does not connect to iTunes, nor charge. Before die I set to WiFi sync and now I can sync (slow, but I can).

Son now there is no way to charge connected with a genuine cable to any PC/MAC, also can't connect to iTunes via USB. I find a fix for charging it connecting to a PC, but not for USB data connection.

Using a microUSB to lighting adapter and a USB-MicroUSB cable for power only, you can charge with a PC.

Is not easy to find a USB-MicroUSB cable with only power wires and no data wires. Normally this kind of cable are together with a power bank battery.

The iPhone problem, probably have not any solution. At the Genius bar, after many tests told me that is the Logic Board. If iPhone is out of warranty, you need to spend a lot to replace the phone.

Who have this defect, and out of warranty, can't do nothing. The phone is 99% working except the USB sync function. If you have enabled the WiFi sync (Before USB die) you can use the phone without problem, also you need to use iCloud for save your data. Probably the USB chip inside the phone is damaged, and to make full working the phone, need to be replaced, but, replace it is really complicated and not cheap, also the risk to kill the phone is really high."

Its turned on. It can be charged by wall charger. I can use it normally without any issue but the problem is with connection with PC. Its not connecting with any PC or Mac. I have tried with more than 8 pc and and 5 diffrent geinune lighting cables but still not connecting with any of them, absolutly no sign of connection.

"The only time I've ever seen this happen on my own personal device was when I was using a data only cable on accident and not one that can transfer data. If your charging port is working properly, then I'd say reinstall iTunes.

It's not the driver in the pc because you said you've tried it with many, but it SHOULD say in the bottom right - installing drivers - so that's a sign that your phone isn't communicating with the machine. Why did you first change the port, was it because this same issue was happening?

I'd say if it was because that same issue was happening with the original charger you've either got board level damage or iOS corruption. You could try a iCloud backup, do a DFU restore and hope that the computer recognizes the device... But it may not be worth it as you can transfer everything over to an iPhone from iTunes if they're on the same Wifi network."

I have a new computer with Windows 10. I use Google photos and can't download from my iPhone to it. Find myself emailing myself photos!!!
