Even if you find the gold contact spring, getting the microphone back together is all but impossible.
I only figured out that the microphone came apart after several hours of troubleshooting and many times of taking the phone apart and putting the phone back together. When I could not be heard on the phone I realized something was wrong, and after comparing pictures of available parts to what I was working with I figured out that my microphone was busted.
I managed to find the disc, but not the gold contact spring. They are cheap to order from cnn.cn, but they take about 2 weeks. If you are going to take your phone apart buy one ahead of time.

Hi, This also happened to me. The mic fell out, but I managed to catch it. However, I only found 2 pieces, the main circular body which has 2 edges that look like contact springs. And, a small plastic circular piece.
Question1: Are there only 2 pieces?
Question2: The small plastic circular piece seems like there is a topside and a bottomside. So, which way is the correct way?
Many thanks for your help, and if there are pics, that would be great!....
