This instructable does not require advanced soldering/desoldering skill. I had never desolder anything before, but was able to somehow desolder the jack.
[UPDATE]
The problem kept coming back. So I did permanent fix using modem port in my latest instructable.
Step 1: Initial Diagnostics
You can observe the damaged DC jack on the back of my computer.
The new DC jack shows how it is supposed to be.

Step 3: Most important key! DOCUMENTATION!
The
reason why you need pen and pencil is that you need documentation. I
can't emphasize enough this. You will find yourself with extra screws
and non-functional laptop if you don't.
Look around and write down schematic diagram of your computer.
You will assign screw numbers and mark them into your figures as you disassemble.
