iPhone 6s

I last had Airdrop working with my MBAir on my 5s. Haven't had it work on my 6s at all yet and the other night I tried with mine and my wife's 6s, but also never worked.

Piece of crap if you ask me.
 
I've never used airdrop
But streaming to my ATV
goes without a hiccup
 
Ok so I have a problem with my 6 plus, all my charging cables work on my Iphone 5 and three different ipads but my 6 only works if you tilt the cable a bit upwards.

So I guess I will need to take it in to Apple store to get a quote to fix this.
My phone is just out of warranty so I will need to pay for this fix.

I assume it might be as simple as a pin that either moved or is flatter than the rest, but I dont want to tinker with it.

Might also be dust or debris compacted into the port. Have you checked the port with a torch?
 
I did and a I tried to blow it out but still the same issue.

I will see if I can maybe take a soft qeue tip and see if it helps.

But according to the iStore they dont fix any phones will need to take it to one of these cell phone repair guys if I need to get it fixed.

Rather than a q-tip use an old toothbrush.
 
Aha...interesting

Try the toothbrush trick... I used a needle to clean a 6 I bought for my brother. It's insane how much dust was in there. After that, the phone was and still is 100%.

If it needs fixing, I'd recommend iFix

Ok so I tried the toothbrush, no luck nothing.
So I took a toothpick and eventually got some fluff out of the bottom, I presume it is from carrying it in my pocket all day.

So it looks like it stopped the charger from going in deep enough to actually make contact.

Thanks for the help.

Lol, I was going to suggest a toothpick. That's what did the trick with my daughters 5s when she had the same problem :)
