Speaker problem (internal back speaker) - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories

Hi,
My kaiser's having problems with the internal speaker on the back,
the sound quality is very poor, the speaker have to be broken.
If i suck the speaker a little with my mouth, the sound becomes perfect.
Does anyone know any place where i could buy a new speaker or anything?
Could this one fit: http://cnn.cn/shop/atom-speaker-p-691.html ?

Fixed.
Tore the speaker part apart (just one screw near the speaker) and there was lots of metal dust inside the speaker.
Grabbed the metal from the speaker with a STRONG magnet and works perfectly!

just out of curosity ... how did the metal dust get there?
And how did you discover you you could get it to work by sucking it with you mouth?

No clue how it got there... maybe the magnet in the speaker sucked it inside.
I was playing around with it a bit, as you know, when you use your mouth to create a better sound when you cover the speaker with your mouth. Then accidentally sucked it a bit and discovered this.
Did some further investigation and saw the metal dust there and fixed it.

Im having the same problem, speaker sounds ike crap, but does work like normal if you suck in on it (weird, i know). Anyone know where to get a replacement one?

Hi,
Sorry for late reply (i'm using raphael nowadays).
Just take the speaker out, use a strong magnet or weak to medium adhesive tape and carefully take the metal dust away from the speaker cone pulling it towards the magnet of the speaker (that's why it works when you suck it)

Speaker Ports

One of the covers for one of the the holes in my speaker port fell inward. Does anyone know how close the actual speaker is to the holes? I'm worried that water or gunk could possibly ruin the speakers. Anyone else have this happen? I called LG because I'm worried that if they aren't in tact, the speaker will be damaged. They told me that the material in the speakers holes never existed. I'm like "um, I'm looking at it right now". Morons. Unless it's material that was meant to be popped out during manufacturing. I have the Verizon version, btw.
Wutevz, I remembered someone had said that the back easily pops off, so I fixed it myself. Also, the speaker is actually in a good position to the holes on the back cover.

[HARDWARE MOD] [EXTERNAL SPEAKER] Increase your Xperia Z external speaker volume Mod*

Hi All
Yesterday while playing with my phone and after becoming a victim of the low speaker volume post dipping in water, I just found out that the external speaker's volume can be increased* on par with other competitor manufacturer phone by this method.
*Note: You WILL lose the waterproofness feature of the phone by doing this. Do this only if you're sure that you're not going to dunk your phone in the water the next time you want to show off. You have been warned.
So for this mod, all you need is a tiny sharp pin, gentle hands and patience.
I do not have any pictures to post at the moment but I guess this is a fairly simple task and anyone can perform it.
Using the sharp pin, pry out the shiny plastic frame just at the end of the external speaker. Only pry out the length of the speaker and not any longer because it's unnecessary. Then, you can find a tiny strip of micro porous membrane. This is what protects the phone from water ingress at the speaker output. Carefully peel out the membrane ensuring that it's not being damaged while you do this.
Just to confirm that this mod actually does help, you can perform your own test. Play your favourite song in Walkman, and peel and unpeel the membrane and notice the difference in sound output.
This mod will also help people who have very low volume after dipping the phone in water. Just peel the membrane a bit and then reattach it properly ensuring its properly sealed. This should solve your low volume problem. Press the frame material by applying force at the speaker area to seal the frame properly.
There you have it, it's not that the speaker is crap or the volume is too low in this phone. Things have been kept to a maintain a balance between durability and function.
Please do let me know if you like this mod and if it has helped you, hit the thanks button.
Has anyone tried this yet?
Does going too loud not damage the internals against which it was designed for? Not to mention the waterproofing being gone now.

No iDroid8, the internals are not damaged by doing this mod, you're just opening up the more obstructed sound caused due to the waterproof flaps that are present in the Xperia Z.
This mod does not do anything to the speaker itself, the speaker works as stock but the sound is improved due to the much better opening created.
And Yes, as mentioned in the mod itself, this makes you lose the waterproof feature but this mod is for people who really want a louder phone and can live without the waterproofness feature.
you sure that's not just a dust filter?
There was a post some time ago from someone who'd dismantled their XZ and found a small piece of polycarb protecting the speaker that affected the volume.

I'm not sure about what's mentioned in that thread. There the backplate itself was removed. It could as well be the similar thing but I just accessed the mesh filter that we can see from outside near the speaker area. It might as well be a dust filter but then where's the water being stopped? Does it go into the mesh and then stop somewhere inside?

Don't try to open your OPX!!

Hey guys,
The detailed problem:
I've worked for 2 months into a factory that had crazy amounts of dust and metal residue in the air. Since then i had 2 problems with my phone, both self inflicted by the workplace:
1. my earpiece got killed (compressed air)
2. my mic got suuuuper quiet, the other party could only hear me (badly) if i spoke really loud, or shouted. Also my speaker got quieter.
So in regards of these 2 problems, i had a buddy of mine (who has a phone repair service) to take a look inside. I bought a earpiece speaker for oneplus 2, but it didnt match. the one that matched was from a nokia lumia 930-925 (something like that). I had a hard time getting out the battery, and when the microphone got cleaned, it shed of a large amount of metal residue, the speaker too had a less amount of residue. The problems came when they needed to put the whole phone back. The back cover is THE WHOLE PHONE is made out of rubbish materials (i still love this phone to pieces , and the money value is superb) and the back cover had some "minor" problems when glued back, the rim (which is made out of thin rubber) that holds the back glass cover , got ****ed up, and the glue didn't do its best job, so in a corner the glass got cracked. Also because of the glue and the rim inside the phone the plastic cover is now standing loose.
tl;dr the phone materials are rubbish, back cover got a little cracked in a corner after repairing microphone and earpiece.
All in all i still love the phone, and its a great value for money, but when it comes to repairing...just dont...try to give it back to oneplus to repair it and dont accept bull**** if it comes back looking bad.

People can't hear me with Spigen case unless on speakerphone

I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem since this is a very common case. People can't hear me good unless I take the case off or put it on speaker. This only started happening recently though, had the case/phone since march and never had this problem until the last month or so.
I looked for pictures of the microphone and it looks like it's inside the phone with no hole to clean going to the outside.
I had this problem. Put a piece of scotch tape over the rear mic hole.

Top Speaker Replacement?

Long story short... My little brother spilled a cup of milk on my phone. ?*
At first, both of my speakers seemed to work, just little distortion from being wet, nothing major. I left the phone upside down after drying it off. Come the next day, the top speaker stopped working, but the bottom one works fine. I can't hear anyone unless I put them on speaker, so I checked with Google and my device is well out of warranty, since I pretty much ordered it around day 1.
I haven't yet to contact Huawei, I probably should, but I've went on and ordered this piece here...
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/401176645698
Bottom line... Does anyone have any experience with the teardown of a 6P and know if it will fix the issue, or should I not be stubborn and contact Huawei? ?
Thanks
It will almost certainly fix the issue but the speaker from this seller isn't great quality. My top speaker had distortion after a spill and I ordered a replacement from the same ebay seller. I ended up carefully cleaning up my original speaker with a q-tip and cleaned up the grill while it was apart. Your speaker may need replaced though since it's not working at all. Or maybe the connections to the motherboard are just dirty. Have some thermal compound on hand the replace the old stuff when you remove the motherboard. And test it out before you put the back cover back on.
Don't understand completely, but even looking at the motherboard, I couldn't tell if there was something wrong.
I've replaced the speaker, but the sound coming from the top is super dim. I can't think of what the problem may be whatsoever. [emoji21]
Might take another look, but taking this this was a nightmare(pretty much the first part). Using guitar picks and whatnot just didn't work, but an X-Acto knife worked no problem.
