Origin_Pete 10 #4 Posted September 30, 2013 You need to buy one that is 'certified' or it won't work on iOS 7 onwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
gluedtopc 10 #5 Posted October 1, 2013 I bought one of eBay 99p it lasted 3 days then kept getting a message on my phone saying this device not comparable ended up paying £17 from phones 4 u! I sometimes but not always get that message with my eBay Iphone3 charger but I also got it with the original charger. Anyone know why ?

Origin_Pete 10 #6 Posted October 1, 2013 I sometimes but not always get that message with my eBay Iphone3 charger but I also got it with the original charger. Anyone know why ? I believe with the old 8 pin connector it would be another factor that would trigger a warning such as the precise voltage coming in (this is a pure guess) whereas the newer models have a chip that the firmware is actively looking for before it charges.
