The Toshiba Satellite A505 series laptops feature the newer Core series cpu. They are much quicker than the previous generation toshiba notebooks (L505, L305, L355, etc.).
Most of the toshiba A505 notebooks come in with the dc jack pushed back inside the laptop or have a very loose connection. Looking at the before and after pics it looks like the laptop was dropped or the power cord tripped over. Normal use won't cause that type of damage to the socket.
They use a cable style dc jack that plugs directly into the motherboard. The a505 needs to be completely taken apart to the motherboard to access the dc plug for replacement. No soldering is required for this model unless you want to change just the dc jack tip and reuse the cable. Due to cost of these jacks I suggest you replace the entire cable assembly.
