Great guide. It helped me find the right component to order and gave me confidence to fix it myself. Actually the steps can be shortened. The battery does not need to be removed. So you need to do step 1 (remove the cover), first part of step 2 (remove the flat cable of the charge plug), step 5 and 6. Step 7 should be to replace the old part with the new part. And then of course the reversal of reconnecting via steps 6, 5, 2 and 1.

This guide enabled me to replace a bad charging port.

Note - the replacement microUSB port didn’t have the little chrome frame around the port - so I had to carefully scavenge the frame from the old one just to give the new port a little more support when plugging in a cable.

I’m going to use a magnetic charging adapter to reduce the wear and tear on the port, but this one saved the day.

Although I have changed this flat cable and also the relative micro USB connector and have installed the driver on the PC, the Tablet is not recognized, even if it charges the battery. I also tried to change micro USB cable and USB port on PC : - ((((
