I recently bit the bullet and upgraded my iPhone 4 to run on iOS 5.0.1, however I've noticed that the charger I use for it (Apple USB power adaptor with a replacement USB cable from a non-Apple supplier as the original cable had a tear in exposing the inner wires and wanted a replacement) charges it very slowly having initially thought nothing was happening.
I tried my flatmates charger and it works fine with her's and comes up with the bolt in the top right hand corner and the see-through battery in the centre, but not if I plug her cable into my power adaptor or if I plug my cable into her power adaptor.
I plug it into my laptop using my cable and it charges normally. Likewise if I plug it into my Gear4 iPod dock/radio. And what's more I own a 2nd gen iPod Touch running on iOS 4 and that charges normally.
I had a look on the Apple website and it seems I'm not the only one to be experiencing these issues, but thankfully not the slow running or battery drainage issues others have been having.
Has anyone else had similar issues? Looking at the prospect of a new charger simply because iOS 5.0.1 is playing silly games and can't really be relying on my laptop/iPod dock to charge it up or waiting forever.
