There may be a possibility to repair it. You don’t say what is wrong.

I see one topic of someone who repaired
Correction: I have yet to attempt a repair myself, I’m first looking for a backup bottom module in case my efforts go awry. You might want to check this thread, it beings with repairing cracked solder for the µUSB port and has talk about replacing the microphone about midway through:
@JohnHughes (thanks again) send me two broken bottom Modules some days ago. This one has a defekt µUSB port.
After disassembling I took a picture with a microscope camera and found some solder cracks. Barely to see without magnification. Two cracks at the shield contacts that I am not too worry about, but also one at contact 5. I am sure that was a slack joint. Some serious force must be acted to the Port.
I will try to resolder the joints and hope the bottom module will be able to do its work…
