I just Jailbroke my iphone 4s a couple days ago and now it wont even charge.
I went out and bought a new charger and that didn't even work.
If there is anyway someone can help me charge my phone that will be amazing.

I don't believe the jailbreak would do that to the phone. Try resetting it to factory settings.

You may quite possible be screwed... It's most likely a problem with the phone itself and it's jailbroken so I don't think Apple will help you :/

Try doing a system restore and see if that fixes it. Never heard of that happening from jailbreaking. If you rejail break it i would use a different program

If you're plugging it into the computer and it's not detecting it or charging then its likely just a coincidence that you jailbroke it and now its not charging.

Take a toothbrush and pour some isopropyl alcohol(the higher % the better) on the toothbrush and give the charging port a scrub. Let it dry then test it. It might fix it.

If that doesn't fix it then the charging port needs to be replaced. Local shops can do it for probably around $50. You could order the part yourself and do it for extremely cheap if you're willing to take apart your phone.
You can try taking it to the Apple Store but they are typically pretty stiff about things like charging ports and what I mean by that is they usually won't help you at all and tell you you need a new phone.
