[Q] Defective earpiece possible to DIY repair? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear all,
Since a few days i have a very annoying vibrating sound when during phonecalls, sounds like the earpiece speaker is damaged or not well fixed. I called the shop where i bought it and they want to send it in for repair, but i'll have to miss my dear Note 2 for about 3 weeks, which is impossible. Would it be possible to repair this yourself? Are there tutorials yet how to tear down and succesfully reassemble your Note 2?
I found the piece here http://www.parts4repair.com/samsung-galaxy-note-ii-n7100-earpiece-speaker-flex-cable/
but i'm hesitatant to open it up. Any ideas?

Help! I need to find a replacement earpiece speaker.

I was able to get my Kaiser after someone at my work dropped theirs and since AT&T won't cover damage they ended ordering a new one and I decided to replace the screen which was BADLY broken but otherwise worked. What I didn't know was that the contacts on the earpiece speaker were being held in be the case.
I am looking to get a replacement 'earpiece', aka conversation speaker, for my Tilt but I cannot seem to find it anywhere online including ebay. So far I have found a few repair shops that would be willing to fix it if I send it in but as I have already successfully replaced the LCD I prefer to do the work myself. Does anyone have the part they would be willing to sell me or know of a company that would sell just the part. I have a bluetooth headset but it would be REALLY helpful to have the earpiece speaker working again since windows can be flaky when it comes to answering the phone using the headset.
if your going to do the work ur self ur going to need a soldering iron and possibly an ohmmeter (electrical evice measeuring electrical resistance ect) u would need to ohm out the speaker in the phone and u might be able to use a headphne speaker if u used a resistor with a head phone to get correct ohms for the speaker to work beacause u need the same ohms or it coul draw too much or too little current from the amplifier and the battery and if that doesnt work speakers in commercial devices are usually genaric made in korea or china u could try speaker from a different phon hopefully a cheap phone, hope i helped in some way
din,
Not looking to fix the component.
I was hoping to just replace the actual component, as I am not trying to fix the broken speaker or try to fit a different speaker into my phone. If I can't find a place to buy the speaker I probably will have to get my work to but me a phone and it will likely will be a Blackberry as that is our corporate standard.

problems with 1 year old ZenFone2 4gb

Hi everyone, I bought this ZenFone2 4gb 64g, recently it got soaked in my pocket due to rain and now has a few problems such as vibrating motor not working, microphone and speakers not working and screen timeout not working as well.
the problem is that due to job I relocated to Pakistan and here there is no one with replacement parts for this phone neither do they have experience of it. I have located parts on aliexpress.com but I am reluctant to open it up myself.
ASUS says Thayer its warranty was only 6 months so I am left with no options. Help me guys if you know something which can be done.
Thanks
Its easy to open. Need just the right tools. I think you may need to change docking port chip. Its about 6$ at aliexpress. Changed mine.. There are a lots of guides in web. Try one.
If you don't want to change it, just order it and go to some Asus repair center or any cellphone, smartphone repair center. And tell them you're problem firstly. Anyone with normal knowledge about a smartphone could do this.
Ofcourse if you do it yourself there can be problems, that i had : Broken antenna cable (I changed display- twice), broke the battery (i was a fool ).
Little Instruction: Take back cover off, take all the screws out, they are about 10, don't remeber really. Unplug SIM, SD flex cable, that is on the docking port chip.
Remove Antenna, very carefully. And replace it.

oneplus2 microphone issue/replacement idea?

hi, my brother got issues with his microphone, it is either quiet or echoing or no sound during calls. He has bought a replacement on ebay but the issue is the same. is there a known fault with these, or can anyone suggest a good quality replacement. Or maybe it can be something else?
Hi,
Oneplus 2's microphone is a bit unlucky...I got it replaced (with warranty) by Oneplus Inc. and it was....just as before! (OnePlus Inc. is one of the less serious thing on Earth) So, I refused to waste another time on it.
When I'll change OP2, then I will be able to record a video or to record an audio with good quality.

Anyone with speaker issue?

My LE max2 was bought from banggood a year ago. About 3 month ago, the camera dead, and then no sound from speaker, and then original earphones dead. Camera and earphones are not big problems but without speaker, I missed calls. Recently I found there were parts on aliexpress. So bought camera and speaker. Learned from youtube, I spent 2 hours to replace the camera and speaker. The camera works but speaker still not. Maybe the something run with mainboard. Anyone got same issue? Do love this phone.

Neither mic working after fall

Hello everyone, I recently dropped my phone and the screen shattered. After I replaced the screen neither of the 2 mics were working. I tried the dial code for hardware check to make sure , as well as calling both normal and on speaker. Tried saving some videos etc. None of the mics is working. Does anybody have any knowledge where the problem might be coming from. I highly doubt that both mics just blew out after the fall.
If anybody has any hardware knowledge of samsung phones help would be appreciated.

no one has any way of knowing what happened to your device especially if it was damaged.
it definitely sounds like your "fall" is what broke your mics. you need to contact samsung and have them repair your device
