Can't charge or Sync

My iPhone will not charge while its on; it will only charge if the device is completely shut off! Also I can't seem to get it to sync with my iTunes. I replaced the battery and the dock input! The phone works just fine, but I can't seem to figure out the problem!

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
