Right three or four times this morning, up has flashed a message saying "this device is not optimised for use with I phone and may affect your data and cellular" or words yo the effect. I've only seen that before on the old I phone when connected to a cheapy dock!! However as we speak this isn't connected to anything!

Blow on the contacts maybe something is causing to think it's connected.

Most likely a small piece of foil or something else conductive has gone from your pocket into the dock connector so it thinks it's plugged in. Get a needle, toothpick or similar and dig out the fluff and rubbish in there.

External devices that are approved by apple have an authorization chip inside to [s]ensure apple make even more cash through licensing[/s] prove it's a compatible product. If Drac's suggestion doesn't cure the problem you could have a dry joint or a short inside the phone where this is detected. Shake it about a bit 😉

Yep. Then you would have had no devices at all that can dock with it, so you wouldn't have an issue 🙂

Give it a good boil wash - no silly messages after that I assure you.
