Wall charger not charging iPhone

My wall charger was working, I plugged the usb cable into my computer, synced up, charged a while, then went back to the wall charger, and it isn't charging.

Tried resetting....wall charger is not hot or anything...all cables are secure....

iPhone still charges when attached to the computer.

iPhone, MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Same problem 😟
Last night I had to use my 'ipod mini' firewire-connection AC plug (the iphone/ipod connection is the same, and it worked fine) to charge because the new USB plug would only work thru the computer and the cradle- the new brick seemed to be just that- a brick!
but tonight, it worked again, just like before. I was figuring maybe it was something with the plug on the power strip I was using- didn't realize other folks had the same problem.

I'm having the same issue as well. It appears to be isolated to the power block as I can use the USB on my computer and it's fine. I tried plugging in my iPod to the USB and power block and that wouldn't charge either. I called the Apple store in MASS that I drove (for 4 hours) to get my iPhone and they were more than happy to have me come back to swap it out. I will the next time I go to the Apple store but in the meantime I bought a new block at Best Buy and all is fine. Seems to be a common issue though. I wonder if Apple will replace them once the complaints get loud enough.

Purchased two 8 gig sku's, one for myself and another for a friend. The first night I used the wall charger and it worked fine. I tried two days later and no response from the iphone. I can now currently only charge using the usb on the pc (same cord works). My friend just called me detailing the same problem. There is something wrong with the bricks.

my charger had worked, then didn't work, then worked, then totally seemed to stop working for two days straight. so, i took the wall charger into the genius bar at the apple store this evening. the guy plugged it in, connected it to my phone, and of course, it worked. he gave me a new charger anyway, and my phone is happily charging now. did anyone else take their charger back? same thing happen?
