| 09:31.53 | sledges | hello |
| 09:32.51 | sledges | mircoUSB pins got caught by the usb cable housing, and snapped. I prodded it back, holds in place, but doesn't charge anymore :( |
| 09:38.32 | psycho_oreos | Probably needs resoldering and need to look at where the connectors (data, +/-) are. Though I guess unless DocScrutinizer05 has internal pics of n9 in detail you are pretty much SOL. |
| 09:39.11 | sledges | psycho_oreos, found this: http://www.nbl.fi/~nbl4321/?p=1676 |
| 09:39.31 | sledges | hopes for best |
| 09:45.02 | psycho_oreos | sledges, there's also service manual which may also help you get started but it doesn't seem like there's any easy fix. |
| 09:46.16 | sledges | not an easy one as it looks like, but I've done soldering before, .. |
| 09:47.03 | psycho_oreos | The author complained of how close proximity to everything else that microUSB port. That's pretty much a given though. |
| 09:47.11 | sledges | sure |
| 09:47.14 | sledges | SMDs.. |
| 09:47.21 | sledges | a heatgun might be in order :) |
| 09:47.35 | psycho_oreos | Ideally with extra fine tip soldering gun. |
| 09:47.48 | psycho_oreos | s/gun/iron/ |
| 09:49.11 | sledges | don't get this bit from the article: "... it seemed like there’s not much you can do even with an extra fine tip" |
| 09:50.04 | psycho_oreos | Like I said, the proximity of the actual port. If you look at the photos where he circled both the USB port and the speaker piece. Its very close. |
| 09:52.18 | psycho_oreos | There's something else behind the actual port itself, and where the actual port is you can see some of the pins sticking out but within close range to the areas that you see in the photos are shadowed |
| 09:54.56 | sledges | so from the top it's the metal housing, then the port itself, and you gather there might be other bits and bobs below/around it as we see |
| 09:55.45 | psycho_oreos | There's 6 soldering pads within the same proximity as well. |
| 09:56.52 | sledges | btw, resoldering in my case won't work |
| 09:57.10 | sledges | as the pins snapped together with their plastic inside the socket |
| 09:57.29 | sledges | still holds on place (plugging in the cable and plugging out doesn't 'suck' it out :) |
| 10:00.36 | psycho_oreos | So I don't get it, the plastic bit inside the socket itself has those 4-5 contact pins right? If so then why can't you charge it? it sounds like as if the housing bit broke but the connectors are still in place. |

| 10:02.22 | psycho_oreos | The plastic itself that holds those pins? |
| 10:03.19 | psycho_oreos | Looks like you are pretty much stuck then. |

| 10:07.32 | sledges | yes |
| 10:07.36 | sledges | it happened |
| 10:07.40 | sledges | when I plugged the cable |
| 10:07.49 | sledges | the plastic was slightly tilted for unknown reasons already |
| 10:08.03 | sledges | and got caught by the housing of the usb cable plug |
