Step-by-Step Ringer Speaker Replacement Guide

Step 1. Power Off the Phone

Turn off the device completely to prevent electrical damage and ensure a safe repair process.


Step 2. Heat the Back Cover

The back cover is secured with adhesive that must be softened:

  • Place the phone (back side down) on a heating pad
  • Select the mobile heating option and allow the cycle to finish

Alternative:
A heat gun or hairdryer can be used—just warm the edges evenly.


Step 3. Remove the Back Cover

Once the adhesive is softened:

  • Use a suction cup to lift the back panel slightly
  • Insert a plastic pry card into the gap
  • Slide around the edges to separate the cover completely

Lift the back cover gently and set it aside.


Step 4. Remove the Midframe

  • Remove the SIM tray
  • Unscrew the 17 midframe screws
  • Use a pry tool to release the clips around the frame perimeter
  • Carefully lift the midframe away from the device

Step 5. Disconnect the Battery & Fingerprint Plug

Before removing or installing any internal components:

  • Disconnect the battery connector
  • Disconnect the fingerprint sensor cable

This prevents accidental short circuits.


Step 6. Remove the Faulty Ringer Speaker

  • Locate the bottom loudspeaker housing
  • Unscrew and remove the ringer speaker cover
  • Lift the speaker module out of the frame

Remove any dust or leftover adhesive if needed.


Step 7. Install the New Ringer Speaker

  • Place the new ringer speaker into the frame
  • Make sure it sits flush and properly aligned
  • Reinstall the speaker cover and secure its screws

Step 8. Reconnect Battery & Fingerprint Plugs

Reattach:

  • The battery connector
  • The fingerprint cable

Ensure both are seated securely.


Step 9. Reinstall the Midframe

  • Fit the midframe back into position
  • Ensure all clips lock in
  • Reinstall all 17 screws
  • Insert the SIM tray

Step 10. Close the Back Cover

Check the back cover adhesive condition:

  • If strong enough, press the cover firmly back into place
  • If weak, apply B7000 glue or new double-sided adhesive

Use binding clips or rubber bands to hold the cover tightly while it cures.

If your phone doesn’t ring, has distorted loudspeaker audio, or produces no sound during media playback, the ringer speaker is likely defective.
