Meh I think I will stick to my original plan of fixing an older one. I imagine you could eBay it

I have the same issue. Mine wasn't dropped in the toilet though :D. Is it difficult so swap the pieces?

Probably just a bit of soldering, nothing more no?

This what you are looking for?

http://www.sinomobileparts.com/for-...ce-headphone-audio-jack-flex-cable_p4640.html

One thing I was contemplating doing instead was buying a bluetooth adapter box for normal headphones that way I can listen to music without plugging into the 3.5 mm jack and thus circumvent the problem. What do you guys think?

Video possibly :D? I know there are videos on taking apart the phone haha I just like to cover all my bases if possible. When you swap out the parts report back on how it went

If there is any way you could make a little vid when you do yours it would be greatly appreciated

Edit: I have an old broken atrix (water damage) lying around. If I took that apart would I better understand the process for the rocket. Do you know if it is standard for the audio jacks to pop in and out with ease? Just thinking I could use that as practice haha

For me all i had to do was unscrew the back housing off then unclip the plug to the port and it comes right out. (Very eisily)
