I'm really stuck because my phone just won't charge, and I've run out of options. I've tried several chargers that I know work since they charge my brother's phone just fine. I've also cleaned the charging port according to Apple's advice. Unfortunately, my phone is still not charging, and fixing it is beyond my budget. I'm really worried my parents will be furious if they find out about this issue.

Have you thought about using a charging pad? It might be a quick fix if your phone supports it!
I had a similar issue with my daughter's iPhone. What worked for us was pouring a bit of iso alcohol on a paper towel, then using a toothpick to gently clean the port. Just make sure to power it off and let it dry for a while after that.

I’ve got a magnetic ring and can’t take it off, though. Any other ideas?
