What are toy guys using to clean it? I just take a deep breath and blow lol.
That's all I do too, but it seems to be a bit more dirty that previous phones in the speaker

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)

O yaaaaaaaaaaa that what I needed to brighten my morrning. :cyclops::laugh::laugh::crying:
sucking speakers wid mouth .. lol
I found that playing music at 100% volume and blocking the clean parts of the speaker with my finger causes the dust to fly out of the speakers
Wow, sucking speakers with mouth to get dust out. Seriously the OCD king of XDA right here! Literally heard it all about this device now, lol! Play a song with heavy bass to push that dust out, haha! Seriously how do u see dust in the speaker holes? Do u have a 50x magnifying glass u use for this? Maybe there's a bubble case for people who like to live in bubbles to avoid the elements of going outside into the wild of this planet? Oh boy.

I'm really digging this phone so far, but the one thing that has me concerned is how much of a lint magnet the speaker grills appear to be. Putting the phone in and out of my pocket has already begun to get very small pieces of lint and dust into the speaker grill, and my OCD is freaking out. I've been trying to think of a viable way to clean them and was wondering if anyone had any ideas or past experience with previous versions of the Moto X or Nexus 6.
Obviously air is an option and will help to some degree, but that doesn't seem like it will work all that well because of how confined a space it is. I was also thinking that maybe a small paintbrush could work, or maybe even a pipe cleaner. I haven't tried any of those yet, but will and will report back.
Bothers me too. We have canned air at work and it works well enough. I wish there was an easy convenient way.
While I've never personally tried it, I've heard of people using silly putty. Lightly press/mold it on the speaker grill and, in theory, it gets all the lint/dirt stuck on it.
Of course if things go wrong you run the risk of getting silly putty stuck in the grills LOL

Designed to clean dust etc. from keyboards, but works great on phones etc

One thing I'd avoid is using a safety pin or something small and hard(haha) to stick in there and dig it out. Some guy on Reddit did that and the speaker cover fell off.
a small paint brush does the trick
Or a toothbrush
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...

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.

18 months later … but now I had this problem too. Fairly suddenly I could only hear a very faint voice on the telephone, only minimally understandable.
So I used a sharp needle to carefully lift the grit off the tiny grill slot at the top of the phone as well as I could. Then I applied a vacuum cleaner to suck out as much dust as possible.
It worked, but what I don't know is the risk of damaging the speaker underneath. Any information on what that looks like would be welcome. Has anybody taken the phone apart and looked?
I recommend the Blue Tac adhesive stuff. It's kinda sticky like bubblegum. Anyhow just smoosh that into the opening(s) & pull back out & repeat as needed. The stuff works beautifully!

I might also suggest some clay bar. Any modeling clay would do the trick. If you might be thinking about detailing your car in the near future you could a small piece of the clay to remove any dust/lint from the front speaker grill.
