My iPhone will not charge or connect to my PC?

My iPhone 3GS will not charge when connected to a wall charger and won't charge/connect to PC normally. The only way to get it to charge with the wall charger is to switch it on and then connect it to the usb, then it switches on and starts charging. But this doesn't work to connect it to usb.

I'm not sure what to do, I've had it for 3 years and after updating to iOS5 this has happened. What can I do to get it back to normal if it won't connect to the PC?

You may want to take it to Apple and talk to one of their consultants.
Other then that try getting a new iPhone or something.

  • My iphone will not connect to my home Wi-Fi. It can connect to any other network with no problems All my other devices at home connect with no problem, but once i updated my phone it won't connect here. I've reset the router, my network settings, forgot this network, even wiped out my phone and it still won't work. I changed the dns several times. Sometimes that works for a little while, but then eventually stops. What the hell?
  • Is it OK to charge your iPhone 5s anytime at above 20% charge? And help me out the phone runs out very fast and good app ppl say battery doc is crap and… So on i've let it couple of times like less than 12 times at 1% charge and thrice 0% bad?
  • IPhone won't connect charge or connect to iTunes? Well… I'm no amateur when it comes to iPhones but this problem really has me stumped. I bought this phone and replaced the screen, the person i bought it off of couldnt remember the passcode so its disabled. I've tried putting it in dfu mode, recovery mode, etc. Still nothing. If i turn it off and leave it plugged in itll charge. I also put in a new charging port because i thought that was the problem. So i can't do anything with this phone… Any ideas?
  • IPhone loses charge overnight.a lot of charge. Why? My iPhone 4S was on 5.1.1 but i did restore the software last week and used a backup to also restore the files. Since then I have been losing about 35-40% of my battery overnight, I'm a very power-conscious person, I only use wi-fi, 3g when i need to and i usually keep everything off except data, notifications are to a minimum and location services are off as well as brightness being as low as possible. What is going on? Any help is appreciated
