I have two problems here. The first (which i'm not sure if it's related to the second) is that the phone does not charge when the mini-USB side of the power cord is slightly bend towards the back of the phone. Here is a picture, http://i.imgur.com/1xYS5.jpg?1 or imgur: the simple image sharer if that doesn't work, depicting what I am describing, the red F (force) in direction of the green arrow.

The second is that the phone show's "Not Charging" while plugged into the computer or the wall. It's losing power even though the lightning bolt is showing up on both the lock screen and the battery screen. The battery screen says it's "Not Charging" which I believe. Also in the first picture below, it says it's charging too.

Try a different cable. If that doesn't work, then the USB port is probably broken. If you plug the phone into your computer does it have and keep a data connection with the computer?
