Hey i have a leopold fc660m and the mini usb port on my keyboard was pried downwards so it kind of came out of the contacts, now when i try to plug it in i get a USB device not recognized message or it just turns on and off any ideas on how i can fix it? or someone i could send it to to fix it for me?

stop fapping and get tp fixing lol.
disassemble the case, take a look at the mini usb port, grab an solder iron and set it to 300-350C, lay an solder wick to the place where you should remove the old broken solder joint and lay on top of the solder wick the iron tip after is properly heated. You will see the old solder sucking into the wick, once removed it all wipe it off with isoprypol alchocol and solder it back with the same iron temp and you will need solder wire too. If you have never seen how its done look up WhiteFireDragon on youtube cause he have in dept vids pretty much about anything to do with keyboards.
