Hi,

I have an old xiaomi 20 000mAh battery bank with two non working USB ports.

I've bought another one to replace it, but I'm wondering if there is a way to fix the ports.

The problem is that the case seems mostly sealed, and I see no way of opening it.

If you have some tips on how to approach this I would appreciate it ❤️

Hey thanks. I managed to force it open with screwdrivers and razor blades. Turns out there were tight latches as well as adhesive.

I'll see what I can do from here, but apart from cleaning, I might not have the skill to handle a USB port swap..
