Phone won't charge.........

My phone will not charge at all. I don't know if it's the charger or my phone. My phone is rooted. Do I need to unroot before I take it in to have them look at it or can I just take it in? Thing is I don't think I will be able to unroot it before I take it in because it doesn't even have enough charge to turn on. When I turn it on it turns right back on in 30 seconds.

Suggestions?
 
What have you tried so far?

- Pull battery out and wait a few minutes then replace and try to charge?
- Try a different charger?
- Hell, maybe even a different outlet?
- etc...

And yes, I would recommend figuring out some way to unroot before taking it in. Otherwise, warranty is voided, and they will probably tell you they can't help.

Hopefully it's just the charger. Haven't tried another charger but I have had tried different outlets with my charger.

Guess I'm screwed if I can't get it to power on long enough to unroot. :(

Going to try and take out the battery and then charge now.

I'll get back after I'm done.
