My iphone 4 stopped charging today. Ive tried every method I could think of and still nothing. If anyone has had a similar problem and fixed it on their own please help me out. K+ for any help.

Things I have tried (Don't reply saying these)

Turned off and on.
Reset
Held home and off button while plugged in
Switched chargers (4 times)
Blown into it like a nintendo game. (Couldn't believe this didn't work)


My computer won't recognize it so I can't restore.

i have a light switch that controls the wall socket where i plug in my phone. occasionally i forget and leave the switch off meaning my phone won't charge. i'm sure you would know about this if you had the same set up though

go to an apple store, if they cant help you, they will probably give you a new one if its still under warranty, and you havent busted it in any way.

This seems to be a pretty common problem, as i have heard of it many times on here and elsewhere. Take it in to the apple store or phone company.
