Galaxy S - dead mic

[Wazzzer]

Anyone got any links for a how to on how to replace this? Can't find anything at the mo and it's frustrating me having a useless paperweight lol

You'll have to replace the whole unit it's attached too, there is a flex cable for the mic itself but you'd risk damaging the whole board and cabled etc it will require a complete strip down of the phone! probably best sent off for repair, unless you're confident you can repair it.

PS: who is your contract with? Voda give a 24 month warranty on all phones, you might want to check your mobile company do/don't do the same.

I pulled it all apart last night, seems easy lol

It's under warranty but I can't be bothered re-installing Gingerbread then losing the phone for a week or so. Just ordered the right bit, £6 delivered

Cheers

dammit, there's a bit more to getting the mic out that I first thought.

Just doing a backup of everything now, looks like it's back to stock ROM to send off for repair

[Wazzzer]

It's back

They replaced the whole screen so my shabby screen surround looks brand new

Just loading Cyanagenmod on there now
