IPhone – Drained battery iPhone 5G, about 40-50 cycles only spent, iPhone can’t turn on

batterychargingiphone

Well, basically I bought a good battery it was working fine, and lasting for a long time on a single charge. After like 40-50 cycles or so, I left it without charging and it drained to zero. Now, I can't charge the phone (I use wall charger). It shows only the battery red line sign and a cable, and when I plug it in, it only shows the red lining battery.

  1. I tried keeping it overnight on charging (I use wall charger, because I know it is stronger).

  2. I also tried going into DFU mode, but to no avail. No use. It can actually go to iTunes and iTunes detects the phone, and I can actually restore the phone, but after it finishes it resets and the same happens – red lining battery sign.

  3. I tried keeping the battery on red hot sun and after it almost melts from the heat I wait one minute to cool off and then I put it in phone, same result.

What else can I do?

As mentioned in comments, first check the cable is good.

After that, analysis isn't easy without the right tools.

Your potential fail-points are

  1. The battery's bad
  2. The phone's bad, or
  3. The installation wasn't done properly.
