[Q] HTC Jetstream Bent pins... Anyone done repair on one yet?

[disco_y2k]

I have had it for years, love it, I let my mom borrow and she tried to force the charger in upside down. Anyone have any info on replacing the usb/charger port? pics, advice, prayers, anything would be better than going in blind. I have not opened it yet, but is the footprint the same as a micro-USB (which I am kinda assuming) could I possible just replace the usb with micro-USB port?

thanks in advance



cheers,

1)buy parts from here:

2)select DOCK CHARGING BOARD

3)buy the right one ( one without 4g antena OR the one with if you have 4g tablet )

4)repacement is easy but repair with patience and slow.

5) have fun

for info : i have repaired once so i know it works

I've indicated which three connections that you will have to unplug -- in addition to unscrewing the charging board. The only two tools that you should need are a pry tool (a knife will probably do) and a Philips or Frearson screwdriver.

i had the same idea of doing that, but as far as i know that is impossible
