The micro-usb jack is surface soldered, poorly, to the board. This is a common flaw on the first-gen fire and pops up right around the end of your warranty. The repair appears fairly simple, if you have some skill with a soldering iron. There are several videos on YouTube that show how it is done. Any place that does cell phone repair should be able to do the job, but the cost may be prohibitive.
