Default Charging/not charging problem

For the last two days, my Nexus 4 has been charging weirdly. I leave it to charge overnight and when I wake up its at (usually) 78%. When I go to the battery stuff in the settings it switches between charging and not charging. It's back and forth. Has anyone seen this?

Same thing happened to me yesterday, but today was fine and fully charged. IDK what the hell happened yesterday, but I woke up, took it of the charger and it was 78% charged!?

I've seen this on mine when connected to a computer. I was using a 10ft cable from Monoprice.

When using shorter cables it worked fine. Might just be a bad cable.

I'm also using stock cable and charger. I used a tooth pick and pushed lightly the shelf to the left. It seems to have worked. If it does it again I'm rmaing.

Any idea about how to charge it, then? Do I need to buy another or just use a spare charger?
