iPhone 4 won't charge on any other chargers just the one it came with.

Question

iPhone 4 won't charge on any other chargers just the one it came with.

I bought my phone from ebay and it came with a charger and a wall charger. My phone will not work with any other chargers just the one it came with. The charger works, but it won't forever, when it comes time to buy a new charger I'm scared it won't work with my phone. I have used my old chargers and my sisters chargers all with different wall chargers as well and they didn't work! What is the cause of this problem?

Please help!!

iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.1

What do you mean by, "it came with a charger and a wall charger"?

The phone came with a charger, it works with that charger and only that charger.

y is this iphone 4 problem in the ipad section. did u mean u got an ipad? becuase if thats the case then its entirely possible that u have an ipad adaptor and the reason its not working with the other adaptors is because they are not enough wats and they are meant for iphones. the charger used should make a difference though.

That doesn't matter. If your charger dies buy a new iPhone charger from Apple.

Fine Apple. I will purchase your stupid cable for now but I will never purchase another IPhone again. Good to know that you will gain a few dollars to loose a customer.
