Dear tech-people, my Ipad 4’s battery has reached 0% two days ago. As usual I attached it to the original charger (with non-original cable) but it would neither charge anything (just stay as in the attached picture) or boot. After inserting the cable and after pressing the power button the attached picture appears on the screen for two seconds but nothing else. It stayed on the charger for around 24h now without any changes. I have already researched a little and have tried a second cable, charging dock and cleaned the lighting adapter (nothing noticable came out). I also tried the different combinations of pressing the power and home button, but the Ipad would just stay in the state as in the picture. I have run over this tutorial from 2012: Ipad Dock connector no longer working Does anyone know if this procedure would be applicable to the Ipad 4 too? Any other ideas? Thank you a lot for your help! Best regards SadIpadUser
Anyway OP here is a link on how to replace the charging port: iPad 4 GSM Lightning Connector Replacement And here is link on where to buy the replacement part: iPad 4 Lightning Connector
That image shows that the ipad didn’t recognized the cable and that’s why is not charging. If it would charge fine you should see only the battery without the cable and eventually to turn on. The problem can be from the cable ( but you already tried that), the charging port inside the ipad that need to be changed (you need to take the glass off to do that) or is a logic board issue.
