Thanks Manal. That is sad 
I wanted to keep using it as long as its board worked. I don't have the tools to do a swap and i dunno how much they will charge for this. I guess i will ask a friend for the use of his solder iron and glass to do the job after i have asked for service charge from xiaomi repair shop (to be frank, im apprehensive about handing over the set to them beyond warranty. I guess they don't have much incentive to help me keep using the set. but i may be wrong).
I think it started after someone forced an older shorter port of some other phone cable into it.
