Sounds like a bad window regulator to me...

When it doesn't come-up, can you hear the motor or anything else?

+1 on the window regulator. The metal wire for the regulator is probably getting stuck or is broken

Same problem as yours

I replaced mine a few weeks ago, not a hard job... also make sure you get a new window regulator forma junkyard (it cost 150 for a new one, and only 25 on the junk)
