Screen not responsive

[Android Central Question]

All right, i screwed up pretty bad trying to fix the tablet of a friend (Samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1) that was going to just dump it since it hasnt work in two year. Pluged it in, charged and turned it on, the color were in reverse. Fine i opened the back and tried to unplug, clean and reconnect the ribon for the screen. Decided since i was there to look if everything was well secured in place so I unpluger everything. Now heres the screw up, when removing the middle ribon (the screen sensor one) i totaly broke the socket... Hard to explain but the gold and black "cover" underneath the latch is broke.. My question here is do i have to replace the whole motherboard for the socked or is it available somewhere ?
Im a total noob at this, I feel stupid for breaking something that was fine prior to trying to fix the damn screen color..
Anyway any help would be appreciated.

Hmm are any of the pins broken ? or is it just the fastener broken ?

hard to see the pin damage in the photos. would have to see in person to assess actual port damage. looks like top clip is broken. assuming it is missing pins you will need to replace the module . and it looks to be directly fitted to the main PCB . this kind of module is usually soldered into place and very difficult to repair at home. unless you have a very fine tipped soldering tool with some of the more steady hands to perform the operation. some phone repair places have a skilled soldering artist. but it's not typically a job for the average Mr fix it. i struggled getting these types of modules fixed on a 16 pin setup that one looks like a real pain to fix.
