I dropped my PinePhone and the mic no longer works so nobody can hear me on a phone call. How can I fix this?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

I have been having the same problem. It turns out (in my case), that if I plug a headset with a microphone in, then it works. If this is the case for you too, it could be a hardware problem. The microphone is located on the backside of the USB-C side board. I ordered a new one and installed it today. Thankfully it fixed the issue and the (new) internal microphone is now working.
Instructions: To replace the USB-C side board, you need to follow steps 1-5 of replacing the main board. Then the USB-C side board is glued in place, as explained in the note about the vibration motor.
Note: Doing the replacement yourself is a bit fiddly and requires the right precision tools, but definitely doable.

This looks extremely helpful and I am looking forward to trying this... after I find my Pinephone which I misplaced/lost yesterday.
