Just be ware my friend, it is not a 100% reliable result, do carefully charge it and gently remove the usb out of the port carefully. It can easily come of the board even a slight giggle.

One piece of advise is to not use your phone while it is charging. Even mine, after epoxy it, it still sometimes charging but not charging but sometimes it charge okay with different charger. So it is a temporary solution only. I'm sending mine to Cambodia with my brother to get it welded properly because they can do a better job there with a new USB port

All the best and congratulation on your sucess
