Fix the “Unlock iPhone to use Accessories” Error on new iPhones

Starting with the iPhone X, Apple has added a “new” feature to deter law enforcement of plugging in an iPhone to try and break into it for one reason or another.  Not doing the below may cause the device not to charge via a USB cable until the device is unlocked.

The only way to get around this message and block us by

•  Unlocking the iPhone before plugging it into a USB charger. (Again, failing to do so may block the iPhone from charging properly.)
• That’s it.
