Why is my iPhone not charging?

I plugged it in to charge one day and it just stopped charging. The battery ran down until it died completely.Someone took out the battery and charged it. Then, the phone worked normally until it died again.

"The phone will stop charging if the contacts become dirty or the cable port gets excessive lint in it. With an old clean soft bristle toothbrush, hold the iPhone so the cable port is facing down. Gently sweep the cable port out. blow out the port after with fast, hard breaths.

Plug back in and Wa-La !! if that doesn't work, it may be the cable but I recommend the cleaning anyway."

I got my iPhone 4 charging port working by gently cleaning out with a needle. I scraped away dust and hair, and even found art of a tissue. Be careful and gentle though, as you do not want to break it. Alternately you could get a tooth brush and gently brush out all of the debris from the port. Also check to see that the charger is not the issue.

in most cases your charging dock is filled with lint where the cord goes, all you have to do is gently clean it out, and charge it, if that does not work simply manually restore or manually reset it. if that does not help send your iPhone back to apple and have it replaced
