Reasons for the Repair

You may need to replace the earpiece if:

• You cannot hear the other person during phone calls.
• Call audio from the earpiece is very quiet.
• The earpiece produces distorted or unclear sound.

FAQ

Why is my Redmi Note 10 earpiece not working?

A faulty or damaged earpiece can cause little or no sound during calls. Other phone or software issues can also affect call audio, so the earpiece should be replaced when it is identified as the likely cause.

Can I replace the Redmi Note 10S earpiece?

Yes. The repair procedure shown in this guide applies to both the Redmi Note 10 and Redmi Note 10S.

What needs to be removed to replace the earpiece?

The repair involves removing the back cover, camera lens frame, mid frame, and logic board before removing the non-working earpiece.

Will replacing the earpiece fix quiet call audio?

If the earpiece itself is faulty, replacing it may restore normal call audio. If the problem remains, another issue may be responsible.

Is this repair suitable for beginners?

The repair requires several internal components to be removed and reinstalled, including the logic board. It is best performed carefully with appropriate phone repair experience and tools.

Troubleshooting

The new earpiece still has no sound

Check that the earpiece replacement was completed correctly and that the internal components were properly reinstalled. If the problem continues, the issue may not be caused by the earpiece itself.

The call sound is still very quiet

A replacement earpiece may not resolve the problem if another part of the phone is affecting call audio.

The earpiece works inconsistently

Intermittent call audio can have more than one possible cause. If the new earpiece does not resolve the issue, further inspection may be required.

The phone does not work normally after reassembly

Review the reassembly steps and make sure the logic board, mid frame, camera lens frame, and back cover have been properly placed.

The back cover does not sit correctly

Make sure the back cover has been positioned correctly during final reassembly.

Conclusion

Replacing a faulty earpiece can help restore normal call audio on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 and Redmi Note 10S. The repair requires access to the internal assembly, removal of the logic board, replacement of the non-working earpiece, and careful reassembly of the phone.

Following the repair sequence carefully can make the Redmi Note 10 / Note 10S earpiece replacement more manageable while reducing the chance of problems during reassembly.
