    Is it the motherboard or the battery that is dead?

So I plugged it in using a different cable and adapter, but it still didn't charge. I tried restarting the phone, but the battery was too low so when I...

Fair enough. Fast forward...

I am in a metal enclosed mobile home that GPS signals cannot penetrate but I assume having location services on might still be worthwhile to use the WiFi and cellular parts of it. What about that, should I leave it...

    "Battery information will be available after using iPhone for a few minutes"

    My iPhone 6 starts saying this and didn't really let me see the battery's percentage of usage. I don't know exactly if it could be related to the fact I had my battery replaced about 10 days ago, but my sister too replaced her battery and did not have this glitch. Does anyone know something...
