Currently, there is no cheaper way to get a new modem, is there? Unless I found a cheaper pinephone altogether on ebay used and removed it myself and replaced it.

Basically I had a micro inside a mini and that grove caught hold of the prongs one time and snagged up and out from the board, really wish we could just upgrade the slot all the way from a mini to a standard micro.

That happened to my older PPP as well.
I went to a local cell phone repair shop and got another prong soldered on for $25.00

Good to know, I'll have to check around the local phone repair shops and see who will do it.

Then get a new sim kit and only break it out to a mini, so no pesky groves eat up my tray! LMAO
