My stepbrother's son has a 3ds that the charging port got bent/cracked(another reason to not buy these things for a 6 year old) and no longer works. I ordered the part for $2 on ebay and I don't expect it to be too complex to replace, it seems like it is held on with 4 solder joints surface mounted to the motherboard, though they are fairly large joints. Does anyone have any experience with this/ a picture of that part of the motherboard? None of my tiny screwdrivers want to fit the 3ds' screws behind the battery plate so I have to get a new one before I can scope it out.
I would assume it would be a simple desoldering wick and solder back in job, I'm pretty good at soldering and have a hakko 936 soldering station.
