iPhone 4s suddenly stopped charging.

That's the 5s with Lightning like I have. Hers is an old style one, 4s.

Yeah, know the 30-pin was referenced and different.
Same iOS update, similar programmatic logic. Have seen people use very frayed and unsafe looking cables on their iPhone 4/4s. Imagine has a clever programmer who could eek such detection for the older 30-pin connector cable....which could have many false positive results. Would be weird no message or other warning.
Am sure it'll get hashed & rehashed on die-hard forums, until a truth comes out.

I've tried different cables and adapters, all genuine Apple, and all had the same result. Tonight when I plugged my phone in after it died, it did not turn on by itself, so I'm taking that as a positive sign.

A 4S is a pretty old phone. Perhaps the battery finally gave out?

It was software. There is a known bug that came out recently that does this. No announced fix yet, though.
-
My phone still only charges while it's powered off. Not ideal, but at least it's charging.
-
@Dominica only for a few more months. Just keep reminding yourself.
-
It only has to last until my contract is up on June 14th.

...and just when rumors of the iPhone 6 release date are hitting the streets— -
I doubt that she can hold out long enough.
-
I, on the other hand, will be ready for my update right at that time!
