Help Charging problem

Hi all. I have had my Skyrocket for about 6 months or so and today at work it suddenly wouldn't charge when plugged in. I would plug the phone in, it would beep and say it was charging, and then it would just as quickly stop charging. I went out after work and bought a new charger, thinking my charger had decided to die. But the phone still does the same start/stop when you plug it in. I tried plugging it into my computer, and the same thing happened. It seems that the charger and port on the phone are ok. It seems like something makes the charging process stop immediately. If anyone can help me, I'd really appreciate it!

Also, want to add that I checked the water damage indicator on the battery, thinking maybe somehow some moisture got into the charger port, but the indicator is still white, so that's another possibility to cross off the list.
 
Hello. I had a similar problem with my S2. I cleaned out the connector port (bottom of phone) with a dry toothbrush and discovered there was some gunk in there that was causing the problem. Hope it helps
