Quite a while ago I dropped by tablet with a USB cable connected. As far as I can tell it landed on the USB connector and pushed the USB socket a bit further into the tablet and now a normal USB cable will not connect.
I don't want to take the back off because the chance of doing permanent damage outweighs the gain from restoring the USB connector.
The tablet is the original model of the Sony Xperia Z 10" tablet. I bought the charging cradle with it, which explains why I can still use it without the micro USB socket working.
I was wondering if there was such a thing as a long reach connector, or a connector without the plastic hood which usually keeps the connector from being pushed too far into the socket.
My search so far has not found anything but quite likely I am using the wrong search terms.
Any pointers to a suitable product most welcome.
Cheers
