I don't have the soldering tools but I used lazerbond to reattach the old port. I hope all the conductors are touching their counter parts. I haven't plugged it back in yet. Wish me luck.

Where can you order the micro-usb charge port for this cam?

Not sure where you get them but according to one site it uses a Micro USB 2.0 Type B Receptacle.
