How about you cannot even buy a new Pro motherboad ! 

You MUST but Another Complete phone,  because you used an adapter that came with your phone....

I would suggest to open a ticket under support.pine64.org regarding a replacement. Attaching a picture of the defect to the ticket is advised.

For clarifications, there are big warnings on both, the wiki and the printed manuals (see https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_P...time_setup and https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone#F...stallation). The mainboard is only currently not yet available in the store, I think the regular PinePhone's Braveheart Edition didn't have replacement parts and mainboards in the store back then either and I assume it makes sense for Pine not to produce a large amount of replacement mainboards if a new hardware revision is possible for the next batch. The mainboard itself will probably be however a large part of the overall phone price.

Well what I think is that the main board as a whole is never replaced. May be there is a part which is supposed to be replaced. And I hope it will be an easy task for pine to repair it.

Could you clarify the question? I have trouble understanding it. The mainboards as whole can be replaced individually and from what I know should be in the store quite soon. Replacing the SIM card slot individually is not advised, as it is quite difficult for soldering experts.
