Does this offer still stand? :slight_smile:

What offer are you referring to. The bottom module offer is closed.

Are you looking for a bottom module? Thereā€™s a Search category for that and topics on repairing the mic and the usb port if that helps.

Most likely to the offer in the post pmn was replying toā€¦

Hello @pmn ,
Sorry, as you may find by expanding replies, @wvengen was the first to ask and the module is now gone.
Hope you will find a spare soon!

Hello, Leo and everyone in this forum post. I have a suggestion, tell me if you agree or if it makes sense to you. Right now there are few to no bottom modules being sold in the forum (if you look for them no offers are being posted/instantly closed), and it will continue that way until there are no more FP2ā€™s to be sold, as you canā€™t buy it from the official page anymore.
Could you share the files publicly so that these people can print and assemble the bottom module themselves? I know that in terms of business this probably isnā€™t the best idea, but it would really help extend the life of Fairphone 2ā€™s in general, since the bottom module as a spare part was discontinued in April 2021.

Hi Seity and welcome to the forum

You may want to read a few other topics on this especially the one below as there is a lot more to it than having access to the print file for the housing.

Thereā€™s the PCB and components to acquire.

I really havenā€™t been keeping up with the bottom modules because I have a lot to do. But I never had anything against sharing the files, the forum doesnā€™t allow the file type though. Anyone who wants the files can get them, for personal and commercial use as long as Iā€™m not responsible for damages and am correctly accredited.

Hm I see. Do you have them posted anywhere other than here? I know the Fairphone subreddit is pretty active, and doesnā€™t have any limitations regarding format files or third-party websites like google drive. Could you try there?

I could probably do a google drive. So far Iā€™ve always just send it to people directly over email there isnā€™t a good documentation on how to print them so I always help out a little

Iā€™m sadly a year or two late to the party, but great work on making this happen - Iā€™d love one (in the UK!) should anybody have a spare to sell! @Leo_TheCrafter - please could I have a copy of the designs to have a look at for my interest, and see what sort of complexity it might be if I did have a go at making one!

Itā€™ll take a while until @AntMan232 has the Trust Level to be able to DM here.

Yes as @urs_lesse notes so/but you can sent a DM to @AntMan232 and they can reply with email :slight_smile:
