Ok. I've decided to keep my N900s and repair the USB ports, as they are working when I've charged the batteries externally.
I have a good soldering station, with a thin solderer, a magnifying lens, and holders/clips to hold everything in place.
Before I start, I just want to know of any tips/tricks on how to do this. Both USB ports have come/dropped off, and I've purchased a stick of brand new USB Type2 micro-usb ports. All I need is a steady hand to solder these little suckers back on the m/board and if done properly, it should all work and I'll have 2 working N900s. One for sale (Australia) if I get both working too!
Any tips/advice on how best to do this?
Thanks
