Hello :)

I have a strange problem with my fiancée iPhone 5c. She lives in weak cellular signal area (1-2 bars ) and each time she charge from wall she does not have cellular (phone shows 1-2 bars ).

It's 9.3.5 forever, was yellow submarine (had been in water and was washed in ultrasonic ) and it's refurbished with 600+ cycles (87% wear ). Phone is in Chinese waterproof plastic / rubber 360 case - can't be that.

I gave her my original charger from SE and it's the same - "fake" signal in place where she has signal before charging. She said that even few minutes after she unplug there is no real signal.

What should I do? iMessages are the best now, told her to charge at night but not always it's possible.

Thanks for answer :)
