Advice needed please : how to temp/perm fix usb port
 
]Hello please could I have some help.

I recently managed to brick my phone using backupmenu incorrectly.

I have a broken usb port, (someone has tried to fix it previously and failed).

The latest diagnostic was that one of the 'rails' is broken, please see pictures.

Please could someone advise what steps I could take next, I have seen that people have had some success wiring the port to different points on the phone, I am happy to do a temporary repair just so I can flash it and then remove if necessary.

I have uploaded some macro photos of the usb port so you can see what I mean please see link below

Kind regards.

Thank you for pointing out that thread, sadly one of my threads has gone on the pcb so soldering it, I think, is out of the question as there is nothing to solder it to.

I am really after a guide or instructions on where I can solder the various wires direct from a usb onto the pcb to effect a flash. They would then be removed afterwards.

Thanks Nig451964
