If all the USB ports fail to function, then repairing them is difficult, as the problem will be with the USB controller on the motherboard. If one or two fail to work, but the other ones work, then you have the option of putting a USB extension port into the working USB socket and that will allow you to run several devices from the one port, or, depending on the laptop in question, you can get a USB adaptor PCIMCIA card or Cardbus card that will plug into the expansion slot on the laptop and will give you a more permanent USB solution.

For this to work, there must be at least ONE working USB port

3. If points 1 and 2 are normal, the possibility of flash drive damaged.

The USB port is dirty, can cause short-circuit flash drive. The characteristics of short-circuit flash drive. When inserted into a USB flash drive (about 5 seconds), the temperature of the flash drive become extremely hot. If there are problems like this, immediately unplug the flash drive, to prevent permanent damage.

My girlfriend inserted a USB plug in upside down and damaged one of my ports, well the other port worked after that until it just suddenly stopped. Now I have old USB ports I can put in myself, I was just...

No, there are no failsafes in place. Just be very cautious, as soldering onto a motherboard, especially a laptop, is not recommended.

If there are ANY working USB sockets, then I would recommend using a USB hub, rather than replacing damaged ones (also, the damage may have caused problems with other components, so replacing the damaged sockets may not work).
