For some strange reason, whenever i plug my phone in to charge, it displays the "Charging" logo, then it disappears, then it doesn't charge it... At all. I have to bend the plug all the way back then it starts charging. This is very annoying as i frequently talk on my phone while its charging and the multiple beeps get both me and my friend yelling to turn that dang thing off!!
It can't be firmware since it works fine with my USB cable (charging) but it can't be the cable because that cable works fine on my dad's w580i... Any ideas? Preferably something that doesn't involve re-flashing and something that doesn't involve getting a new phone or a new cable?

its the fastport of your phone thats making the problem, i think its time for a replacement.. and dont charge and talk, it might slowly weaken the fastport of ur phone since its likely that we move and disturb the fastport...

This is the exact same problem which i had with my W760i, you need a new fastport...
Reported 
Well this is the not so good thing about the fastport cable connector, when the two (male) plastic connecting pins that locks the cable to the (female) fast port or the fast port (holes) loosen up due to frequent plug in plug out, this thing happens!
yeah! it's really annoying!
