Galaxy S5 model SM-S902L parts compatibility

[JDub White]

I need to replace the usb charger port on my S5 SM-S902L which is the Straight Talk or Tracphone version. I know it uses Verizon towers so I'm trying to figure out if the usb port would be the same as Verizon's S5 model G900V. Why? Because this part is readily available for the G900V all over Amazon and Ebay. I have searched for a long time and I can't find the usb flex port on either website or elsewhere with the exception of some used ones on Ebay. I would appreciate any help you can offer.

From what I've seen on ifixit, the charging port is modular on an S5, so it won't matter on provider. I could be wrong, mind you, but if i am, hopefully someone will correct both of us in time.

Thank you for your quick response. The reason I believe there is a difference from one provider to another is because when this item is listed on Ebay and Amazon each listing states the model number or service provider associated with the usb port. I would think if they were all the same the posting would read for example "Samsung Galaxy S5 charger port-- all models". Maybe i'm wrong. I do appreciate your response though.

microUSB as a standardized port, the issue being all the manufacturers have different ways of integrating the port inside their phones.
Take a look at this guide for specific directions and photo-guides:
