My IP5s does not charge only shows red battery icon. At first the red battery icon flashes 3x and disappear which i thought i had stable connection in the wall. However i read tips from inet that red battery icon should not flash to ensure correct charging - which i did. But still after several hours the apple logo does not show up. I tried cleaning the end terminal hook up to IP5s and put the back part of IP5s on top of boiled warm banana (of course not too hot that will not burn your palm). After that crazy trick the apple logo show up and my IP5s starts normal charging..Happy ;-)
