has anyone fast charging stopped after update to 11.0.2 on iPhone 7
Yes, my iPad 12.9 inch was using fast charging but this stopped after the ios 11 update. to make things worse, I did the update literally two days after I could go back to using 10, as Apple had stopped signing of the older operating system.
I had a third-party charger but an official Apple cable and that worked under ios 10 but stopped the day after the 11 update. Nightmare. so I tried out a combination of official Apple charges with third-party cable and vice a versa and neither worked.
I think now in retrospect Apple have decided that if it's not MFI in both parts that the iPad will sense that and it charges at a slow trickle speed. A poor show all around.
they will probably hide behind some sort of safety issue with third-party charges and all cables but I think it's a cynical ploy to buy the official kit instead
[doublepost=1511729530][/doublepost]...as a subsequent follow-up to my phone message, I find that using the 12 watt adapter that comes with the iPad actually ends up losing power if you are using it. The 29 watt adapter really ought to come with the iPad 12.9 as standard, as this allows positive charging whilst using. In reality you only get around 3 to 4 hours of use at best when plugged in, so the 29 watt charger is a godsend. charging friend powered off results and around 90 minutes to a full charge rather than eight hours also with the supplied 12 for adapter, a much more realistic and productive use of time especially for an iPad which is considered a business end product and where people may be using this all day long.
Apple really haven't thought this one through have they
