my smartphone stopped charging suddenly,i tried using different chargers but it didn't work,the battery is ok i tried it on another device,the phone charges on pc however and i have tried a method i found to remove the battery plug the charger and inserting the battery back but that also didn't work,the phone is on the default samsung rom if that makes any difference
appreciate all the help you can give me.
 
Sounds like the USB port is becoming faulty. I had this happen to me by using my phone as a wifi antnnae, plugging the USB cable in / out 8 times a day for months. Eventually I had to start 'wiggling' the cable to make it connect properly. I found that 'some' cables worked better than the others. Also there are a lot of hits on google about not using your PC to charge the phone, something to do with the voltage. Try shutting it off, and charging it via wall charger, see if this works.
