worst case scenario, the usb port is replaceable on most phones without soldering
I tried this on my previous phone, Samsung S9, it made everything worse. I bought and replaced a daughterboard with usb, microphone, antenna, and some other stuff. I was very careful, know my way around electronics, found a perfect iFixit video instruction, but afterwards my antenna didn't work anymore. My partner told me to just take it to a repair shop and let a professional handle it. I tried two and they both said "we don't do dat repair because it's too difficult. It can't be done without breaking something else in the phone". So there it is
i applied that fix multiple times on multiple phones, never an issue.
maybe you got unlucky? and those are some shitty professionals that cant replace a dumb daughterboard.
