Damaged Charging Port. How do I Replace it?

I bought the SM-T210RZWYXAR, and the charging port got damaged. It was still under warranty, but Samsung wanted to repair it for a $99 charge because of their policy. I wanted to know where to buy the part and how to repair it. I can do the soldering if I have to. Thanks.

Raj Gabani, of course you already figured that the port is soldered to the board.

This video shows you how to properly remove the charging port:

The part is available at places like this or on here. Hope this helps, good luck.

The video showed how to replace the charging port for a Samsung phone, I requested how r replace charging port for a Samsung J3 tablet, not a phone!!!

hm4286 when and where did you request it? Are you the original poster of this question? Are you Raj Gabani ? If you are then you should not have marked your device as a Tab 3. The model number given SM-T210RZWYXAR is a Tab 3 not a J3. The video shows how to replace a charging port. Period! It is the same for other devices.

Has anyone actually replaced the usb port on their own? I bought a replacement port however the microscopic pins along the back seem impossible to solder by hand.

First I cover any nearby sensitive components with heat tape.

After that, I coat the solder points in flux while its preheating and then add some lower temperature solder to the pins & mount points. After that it's hit it with 300 from the hayco until you can see all the solder on the port is molten. A pair of tweezers works great for the removal.

If all went well there should still be enough solder on the board that you can just hayco and drop the new one on. If not I cool the board, clean it, reflux, and go in to rake some solder across the pins. If you get too much and the pins are connected by a glob of solder just clean the iron and use that to wick it away.

Please check this eBay item # 161472762077 for Tab 4 and this one # 181578889439 for tab 3

Part 1---I have dozens of times. It really is not difficult. that being said I am an Electronics Engineer there is a much easier way to do this though. you can get the whole part with the port soldered on already from all over like this one

Part 2---just make sure that you get the right one for your model of phone. then all you have to do is open the phone without breaking the LCD or the digitizer/screen when you open your phone and be mindful on how to put it back together. a good practice is before you remove anything other then screws take a picture, they will automatically be in order by the time they were took and you can do it just as easy in reverse. last note be careful trying to turn the screws out and open and close the different plugs, it really doesn't take much strength to destroy something on the board if you tool slips off the screw. Good Luck its not as hard as you suspect slow and careful. ~COVACS if you want to see what it takes to dismantle your phone i really like iFixit really cant be beat, correct information and it is clear and concise : https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown

there is no need to fix the port itself if all you are doing is wanting to charge it. You can use the usb port and plug it direct to your pc (the port on the tablet looks to be a pretty standard phone-charging port) or other device that is already connected to an ac/dc outlet. as long as you have the right connection to fit your tablet and a usb connector on the other end, you're good to go.

I'm in the process of switching 3 ports now in my kids tablets. 1st, it's not hard to do yourself. All parts and tools can be purchased on places such as ebay or amazon for under $10. Just take your time and be patient. 2nd, if your gonna pay someone to do it dont, just buy a new one for almost the same price. And you get a 1 year warranty. 3rd, go on YouTube and watch videos. From personal experience reading how to do it is far worse then watching it get done. Also, make sure you have clean work space. The screws are very tiny and almost impossible to find if you lose track of them.

There is also a way to maintain normal operation without replacing the port. That is to use a magnetic charging cable for Samsung. As long as your port does not stop working completely, then this will be helpful. You can find them in the online store, the price is very cheap.
