clean energy charging works alongside the optimized charging you described

Imei unlock is what it is. Doesn’t matter of it’s stolen, past due bill or crazy ex girlfriend. It sucks that there are services like that but there are

I prefer charging with the cable - faster, more efficient and my phone doesn’t get hot when wired charging like it does with wireless. 13PM.

Yes but I read what you said. I wanted to confirm if this also applied to iPhones marked officially as stolen and considered blacklisted and not just iPhones with past bills.

I understand what you said. I’m just telling you that imei service will unlock it. I didn’t say you had a past due bill on anything. Reading is fundamental 👍

As if it was reported stolen. Not bc of old bills.

Absolutely possible. I’ve had to use imei unlock service on a few phones that had past due bills attached.

Why is nobody suggesting Optimized Battery Charging?

Have you cleaned out your charging port lately? It’s amazing how much crap gets in there.

I would guess this too

This is one of the reasons I’m thinking to come back to android.

Every once in a while my iPhone says it is charging but the battery percentage doesn’t change. After restarting the phone the battery updates, if you haven’t already, try a restart.

Call AppleCare and they will run an MRI (mobile resource inspector) remotely from your device.

This will determine whether it is hardware, software or environmental.

If it’s hardware, could he replaced under warranty. If not, argue your case.

If it’s software (hopefully it is as it’s the easiest fix) then backup, restore software from PC/Mac, restore backup and monitor for few days.

If it’s none of the above then it’s environmental. Wall adapter, cable, power board or wall socket.

Give it a shot, call takes 10 minutes and you’ll have a better direction to head in that way.

Try doing hard restart on your phone. Change the cord.

Agreed

You can do that yourself when you download the apple support app now. Without having to contact a advisor.

What you are describing is optimized battery charging. That's something different from charging only when green energy is available.

Well, I'm after preserving Battery Capacity (99% currently) for the time being. Though I have (2) 20W USBC adapters, a MagSafe puck, an NOS 5W (at work) plus several USBC cables (all OEM Apple) at my disposal..Slow charging is best for prolonging Li-ion batt life/less stress to battery (when in no hurry or for overnight charging).

You said you’re lucky to get even 5GB.

You’re not doing anything that optimized charging won’t do better for you

That’s not how optimised battery charging works, it should charge at full speed to 80% and then wait. It wouldn’t make sense otherwise, you may want to charge your phone before going for night out and phone wouldn’t charge?

“With iOS 13 and later, Optimised Battery Charging is designed to reduce the wear on your battery and improve its lifespan by reducing the time your iPhone spends fully charged. When the feature is enabled, your iPhone will delay charging past 80% in certain situations.”

My bet would be on damaged cable or socket full of pocket lint.

Your post just reminded me to unplug charge my 13 PM (on slow 1.5A rate via an $10 Energizer dual pad Qi USB port). I always aim for 80%..

10gb is not 512gb like OP was asking for

I had this issue due to the cable, try another cable or wireless charging
