I recently bought a third party iPhone Sync cable for use at my office so that I don’t have to bring my original iPhone cable to and fro. Everything works as normal with the third party cable. But the thing is it will not charge when connected to a pc or laptop. It can sync. But it won’t charge. If you would like to use it to charge, you will need to connect it to the usb of the power adapter.

So I left the power adapter and third party cable in my office solely for charging and leave the original cable at home for synchronising and charging when connected to my PC.
