Recently, I have noticed that every time I plug in my iPhone with a USB cable into my MBP, it goes in and out of charge every half second. The USB cable works fine when plugged in directly with wall charger and I have removed any lint build up in the charging port of the iPhone.
What is strange is that I can plug in USB sticks just fine and it will not be constantly ejecting, so I wonder if this could also be a software glitch.
