HELLLPPPPP! Broken USB Connector!!!

[ashayinfla]

I have NO idea how this happened, but the usb connector on my T-mobile-branded htc-universal broke, and is hanging by a thread (or a solder joint?)
Is there anybody who works on these, or any way to fix it?

I live in USA, but will ship wherever I need to if I can fix it for a reasonable deal.

If theres a certain board that can pop out (like a sub-board) I would be willing to attempt opening it and replacing board myself, if it doesnt include soldering sub-miniature parts.

Thanks in Advance for any help anyone can offer me.

Also, (if worse comes to worse), is anybody selling a working Universal?

Thanks -- AshayinFLA

It involves soldering an smd part. I did it myself because I wanted my phone repaired in a hurry (just before going on vacation) It's doable, but if you can have it done by a professional then that's a better bet.

My hand is not that steady.... I'll get the pro's to do the job!

How much is it worth to do the ram chip upgrade, while they have it? I think they will do this work, but am waiting back for an email. How much is the actual chips, and what is a "fair" price that they should charge to add the ram chips? If anyone has done this before, does it effect overall system speed/performance (more ram) or just add more internal storage space?
