I got my iPhone wet during a rainstorm while walking. It was exposed to a decent amount of water because I had to use a GPS app to find my way around town. Luckily I was using my Magpul iPhone protective case available at any firearm or tactical store or www.magpul.com

My phone started to loose it's charge while plugged in and then the next morning a dialog started to pop up about an unsupported device. At first it was only happening hours apart but asthe day went on it appeared like clockwork every minute or less.

I was very upset and began to research. At first I put my phone into a bag of dried rice for 4 hours but was disappointed when that did not fix it but made the issue worse causing the dialog box to appear every thirty seconds roughly.
I looked inside the docking port for the USB cable and it appeared to be clean. I took it upon myself to investigate anyways and stuck a thumb-tack I found and started to dig around. To my delight I found several small pieces of lint and some material I could only nearly associate with an ear wax consistency.

Removing all the foreign debree which I'll admit albeit kind of fun was the solution that fixed this error. I'm still not sure if this was coincidence or water damage had attracted lint or moved prior lint gathered from before a few thousands of an inch and into an area of conflict.

Anyways the moral of the story is to invest in an iPhone case or carrier to stop any dirt or water into your phone and if you have any issues do clean your docking port thoroughly with an object small enough to scrape even the tiniest micron out.
I hope this may have helped someone as this helped me!
