Bummer, dude. That's a tough break.

Besides being an "S4 Clone" do you have any information on what the phone actually is? That is, who is the manufacturer and what is the actual model? There are a lot of legit Chinese phone brands out there, most of which have spare parts you can buy. Knowing what phone you have is going to be key in finding parts for it.

A lot of the guys here are big fans of external, universal battery chargers. They use clamps to hold the battery in place, then have movable prongs to align with your battery's posts. If you got one, you could use it to charge your battery as a workaround until you got the problem solved -- or until you got a new phone. But then again, if you're just getting a new phone anyway you might not want to spend money on a charger yet.
