A Friend of mine has a curve that has the USB/Charge port knocked out of place.. the phones in perfect shape besides that one flaw.. im looking to buy the phone, but wondering if it can be re-placed or just simply snapped back into place.. any kind of info would be great. Thanks guys.

Well, as an alternative you can just buy a charging dock. It cost like $15 I think.

yep just get a charging port. look on amazon. i've bought them before for as cheap as 6.99 shipped.

Once the port is broken, you would either need fine soldering skills, or to send the device to a professional repair service which runs about $80 all said and done. But it could be repaired.

You wouldn't be able to update or synchonize data, but you could import your contacts using

, and the rest could be transferred using other methods.

As stated by others, just buy the charging dock and be done with it. Most likely it will happen again with heavy use.
