iPhone 4 will not charge

[smallfry341]

Let me start by saying that I am not a novice at iPhone repair, but this problem perplexes me. I have an iPhone 4 for Verizon, it was dropped once but only cracked the screen (it still charged at this point). I replaced the screen and put it all back together very carefully, as always. Now it will not charge. I thought maybe the battery was damaged upon removal, wouldn't be the first time thanks to all that adhesive.So I changed the battery out with a new one, and still it would not charge. I thought maybe I damaged the docking port/ribbon cable when disassembling, so I replaced the whole assembly and retested with a known good battery. It still does not charge. The connections on the mother board look to be in good condition. It does not connect to iTunes so I can not try restoring it. When the phone is powered off and then plugged in it gets enough power to turn itself on but not charge. I am out of ideas. If there is anyone out there with words of wisdom concerning my dilemma I would be most grateful if you would share your opinions.

Sincerely,
Me

if it helps I've got the same problem with a 3gs . The home button works so there must be good connection between the port and the flex but it wont charge or connect to pc/itunes. Though mine has water damage and yours physical but I guess there must be a chip/coil for the communication of the dock flex. I am(we are) waiting for an expert to tell us which part of the motherboard needs to be fixed.
