Fairphone 2 Bottom Module UK – can have defect microphone

[Jack_Morelli]

Hey. I’m looking for a fairphone 2 bottom module much like a lot of people it seems. I’m not really fussed about the microphone (mine broke pretty quickly). My main problem is the USB port now won’t connect so I struggle charging my phone. If anyone has a spare module with a working USB, but a busted microphone I’d happily settle for that.
Thanks in advance!

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…

Thanks @anon9989719 but after reading those threads I don’t think I have the proficiency or equipment for repairing it myself. I really just need a replacement module if anyone has one.

If you don’t find one, you could try a mobile phone repair shop.

All the best.
