USB Type C Charging Port Flex Cable Replacement for Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 T500 10.4" Port SM-T500 SM-T505 SM-T505N Port Flex Cable Repair Part incl Tools

Replacement port worked fine for about 2 months, now it won't charge unless you hold it in place with your thumb...which means it's pretty much useless. Ordering another on from someone else today.

After three days of light use, my tablet no longer would charge. After removing this part and careful inspection of it, the USB-C connector had cold solder joints on all connections - both signal and PCB mounting tabs. The few other parts on the PCB looked solid.

The tools don't last even seconds... I had used a heat gun to even soften the glue to make the removal easier and that didn't even do anything.I ended up using a guitar pick to get the screen removed because the edges of the tools all disappeared before I could do anything.As for the actual port replacement itself, the tablet did not recognize it. The issue with my port it was that it was loose and the charger cable fell off so my tablet still can charge and has battery so I can test it. So I know this product it's defective it on all it's parts. Do not bother.

All the tools broke, the screen cracked putting it back together, and now the whole device won't power on. Find some other fix. Spotty charging is better than a broken tablet.
