MTK9586 phone, charge port physically broken & Encryption Error can't factory reset.



It all started with a random "Encryption Unsuccessful" error, and an attempt to factory reset. The phone won't boot and since the charging port is broken I can't use "Fastboot" or "ADB" which are both on my phone.

I've tried finding a replacement port, and don't even know where to begin. The board looks nothing like an actual Galaxy Mega on the inside. I'm not sure if there's a standard port I could try to solder. For the past 6 months or so I've just been using a battery charger.

I've tried finding the proper ROM and installing it from the SD card, only to get "Installation Aborted." error.
The ROM I tried to install was the MTK6589 ROM from this forum post http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2594101

I love the phone, been using it for over a year now with no problems. If anyone has advice on how I can solve either of these issues I would be extremely grateful.
