Was the truck running with teh phone charger and window movements? Those phone chargers suck up a ton of current.

have you replaced any cables? A cable with a few broken strands is like a kinked garden hose, and will not provide a full charge to the battery.

x2 on the cables. I had a similar problem once and replacing the cables fixed it for me. Those cables had green verdegris corrosion all inside the insulation, and that was the problem.
