How to remove and replace charging port
I've seen the video and the teardown instructions. Unfortunately, they don't address the removal of the charging port from the board and replacement.I've purchased the replacement part, but the one in place does not move even when I apply force.
Has anyone done this? What is the trick?
Thank you. Bill E.
Is this a good question?

Did you try to unsolder it?

No. It appears to be press fit. Is it soldered?

Did you get an answer - my USB port appears broken so it looks like a motherboard replacement unless you had some success?
