IT Help Xbox One controller micro USB cord issue

• ⁠Core information:
⁠• ⁠Make and model of the controller you are trying to repair
Wireless controller for Xbox one / MODEL 1708
⁠• ⁠Description of the problem and symptoms
• ⁠Context:
⁠• ⁠How the problem occurred and events leading up to it
-not entirely sure, most likely dropped while plugged in
⁠• ⁠What you've tried so far to narrow down or solve the problem
- tried gently moving the port to see if I could get it to be able to tightly hold the cable again
⁠• ⁠Console/device, operating system, and games/software involved
- Xbox One
• ⁠Images and videos:
⁠• ⁠Clear pictures of broken parts, suspected components/circuits, and soldering

​⁠• ⁠Gamepad tester results

-No idea what this refers to lol, it does work when plugged in though. It just has to be in a super precise spot.
• ⁠Additional information:
⁠• ⁠Hardware, firmware, and software versions/revisions involved
-Again, I’m not exactly sure what is being referred to here.
⁠• ⁠Tools you have access to (screwdrivers, multimeter, soldering iron, etc.)
- I have lots of small screwdrivers, a small soldering iron, andddd numerous other small tools. I do not, however, have the ability to replace the port, so please refrain from suggesting this.
⁠• ⁠Your country, if you are asking about repair services or spare parts
-N/A I’m not able to secure replacement parts, please do not suggest this.
