How do I replace my microSD card slot?
The thing just isn’t retaining my memory card, and I think it’s done for. How do I replace/repair it?
Is this a good question?

I think you will just have to use this: Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 Motherboard
It is out of stock right now. This guide should help with that: https://www.ifixit.com/News/56864/findin...

@notnice -96 If you were able to find a replacement microSD card slot, you could use a hot air gun and flux to heat the solder around the microSD card slot, then remove it with tweezers. You would then tin the pads(put solder on rhe pads with a soldering iron) and heat up the board for the new microSD card until it goes into place.
