I have tried stock rom, CM10, AOKP, and Kyan roms and I cannot get my phone to charge. Any suggestions as to why. THis is a new phone and runs fine. Im currently on CM10 but it just has trouble charging.

Have you tried turning the phone off and then plugging it in for charging? Do you see anything this way?
Try flashing the stock kernel and the rom?

I have tried several cables now. And no difference when its off. Do you mean flash stock kernel and the custom rom or just back to stock completely?

If nothing else works at this point, i'd probably go back to complete stock (stock rom, factory reset, wipe cache, etc). If it doesn't charge after that, at least the phone will be stock to take it back for exchange.

Have you taken out the battery? Also, use the AC plug and not the computer, I have had that problem before where the phone would not charge from the PC but plug it in and charge from AC and worked best kind after that with PC

Ive gotten it to charge but it is extremely slow to charge and dies pretty quick. 10% every hour and a half or so. It is possible it could be my actual battery or some hardware? Ive tried just about every rom and kernel.
