Hi Vince,

Actually, you're one of the lucky group of people who have a phone where the charging port is mounted on a circuit board that's separate from the motherboard. That means the port can be repaired fairly easily with no soldering required - something that's particularly difficult with USB-C ports.

I have to give kudos to Lenovo for making their service manual public; that means you have factory specific repair procedures to go by to fix your phone. Here's the one you'll need for replacing your charging port/sub board.

The sub board replacement procedure is on page 120, but you'll need to follow the previous pages to get to it.

The part itself seems to be available practically nowhere; it's complicated by the fact that the service manual doesn't have any part number information. However, I did manage to locate a couple of places you can buy it; I'd definitely go with the first if possible since it's quite inexpensive and a brand new OEM part, while the other is used and inordinately expensive for what it is.

Of course, if you do your own search you may find more options if neither of these works for you.
