Can you teach me how to add that ? I would really hate for this phone not to work , I bought it for 180 something when i saw it on my closes metro store a while ago . so I'm hoping there's a quick fix .



Im going to switch to Samsung s3 since this phone really do sent like me . I'm giving it to my bro when I switch and since he just got out I don't want him having to try to figure out how to fix it himself . I wouldn't want to give him junk . pretty expensive though so I have to wait a while .

I've come up with a different solution. My Bionic is over a year old & it's charge port is just slightly widened from A LOT of use, so what I've done is break off a small rectangular piece of a disposable razor,and mount it on the top side(the side without prongs) of the micro usb using a very thin strip of duct tape around the base of the metal, creating just enough thickness to make the plug tight & snug.
 
Really when it begins to be loose there is not much you can do except replace it. Sooner or later it will get worse and your USB port will be completely useless, so its better to just replace it like they said. I think the manufacture wants them to break because they often don't have much solder holding them in place. You can be sure to solder it on securely if you do it yourself and you can even add a little epoxy to make sure it stays in place a lot longer this time.
