HELP PLZ...
open the back of the phone, remove the battery
gently remove the upper part of the lid, where the cameralens is
now you see the speaker of the phone
if you press on the membrane of the speaker noise should reappear
if this is the case, put some small piece of paper under the plastic of the phone above the speaker to press on the membrane
this worked for me
cooll... thank you a lot.... it worksss....
Great! I tought the sound of my phone is gone, but help for you I also fixed. I didn't know that it is so easy. Actually I just want to tell an extra information. You have to remove the secound layer not the first of lid, because I did the first layer and then I had to glue it back.
This helps a little bit:

When the phone first arrived I was able to make calls either with the top speaker or the back (loud) speaker. I have the phone now for a few weeks and suddenly the microphone doesn't work when I'm in speaker mode!
I can hear and talk when I'm not on speaker, but when I switch to the speaker mode I can hear the person on the other side of the line but he can't hear me (and I checked, the phone is not on mute).
What can be the cause of this problem?
Exactly the same situation. But in my case the reason was my own stupidity. Ones my atrix stuck due to some youtube app issues and the only way to restart it was to remove battery (there was no any reaction to buttons). I noticed little hole on rear side near fingerprint censor. I decided it was hole for unlocking rear panel. It was really stupid as it actually was mic which was used when you turn on speaker. So, I damaged it by pushing needle in the hole thinking that I was unlocking the rear panel.
I think in you case it is some hardware problem too and most likely you need to replace the rear mic.
Maybe its me being VERY picky...
But on the back side on the phone on the lower cover,its a little bit creak sound when i press it.
Also if i hold the finger on the top on the phone and under at botttom,if i press both ends at same time i also hear another creak sound.
I have no idea if its acceptable. Any sound from Your phone?
The plastic which joint the metal on back side is it moving when you press hard ?
Can you see any gap between plastic and metal part?
No,i can't say I see a gap there.
I don't press hard tho.
Nothing is moving..
By the way, it's not sound all the time..
Nobody else have sound at all?
Just tryied it. I have a creak sound too. But havent noticed it the week i have the phone.
Nothing like this here...
Thanks for reply.
When I press it, it almost sound like a little click.
But when I hold it on top and bottom at same time and press , it's creaking.
Maybe I'm just being very picky about it, and I guess this is not a good reason to bring the phone back to replace it with a new one.
If I press first the lower left and right sides together really hard and then press the back at the CE-label and keep doing this alternately there is a faint click. I have to hold my ear about 10 cm from it to hear it.
Hi,
my P9000 just arrived today i wanted to try it out. After the update to 20160419 i wanted to make a call but there were no sound. With my headset everything works just fine, but without there is no call possible due to no sound. Is that maybe a software-bug or is the earpiece speaker broken?
I hope i don't have to send it back
Tank you!

Factory reset, if it doesn't help flash stock ROM again and report
Both did not help unfortunately. Any other advice than sending it in? I heard tomrepair.de here in germany is not quite good (8-10 weeks repair time and no change in the problem). Are there any other repair Centers? Can i do it by my own? Whrer can I buy spare parts?
The same for me... Sometimes it works suddenly

Well, then it's maybe a loose/cold connection. I would open the phone by myself and take a look at it, but i don't want to loose warranty
I just wait, if i can get a new one.

It is soldered to board with wire. Broken my today when trying to removing it Hope they release soon replacement parts like earpiece, camera, screen etc.

It is definitely software related.
In the end I send the phone back to the reseller and got my money back. Because it is nearly impossible to send a smartphone from Germany to China, i was allowed to remove the battery for the shipping. Now I'm a happy Honor 5x user.
I think the battery is still working (unless i damaged it by removing it, it is really good glued), so if anyone is in need for it, i could sell it.
For anyone that might be still interested and ends up here... I just repaired the (previously broken) earpiece of my Elephone P9000. It is not too difficult to do yourself, but you definitely need patience, precision, a steady hand, good eyes and some tools. Here is wat I did. By the way, I first tried a factory reset, which did not help me. But you never know...
I ordered a replacement earpiece via AliExpress. This cost me less than €8, and the part arrived within 12 days. Not bad.
I watched a P9000 repair video on YouTube to prevent making big mistakes/damage by opening the phone. I my case, the flatcable to the power and volume buttons was glued to the back of the phone, so I used this part as a hinge to open the back like a door.
I unscrewed the plastic cover that covers the motherboard (5 screws). It still has a couple of hooks, but with some prying it will come loose. Caution as the flatcable to the fingerprint sensor is attached to the board, so use this (again) as a hinge and flip the cover over from top to bottom.
There is flatcable that partially covers the earpice (at the top middle, soldere with two mini-leads, black & red). I could easily fold this a bit back. Wit a small screwdriver, I pried out the earpiece. Then with a fine soldering iron, I unsoldered the two leads. Remember where the red lead should be attached (bottom for me).
Solder in the new earpiece and put everything back together again.
Drop me a line if you have questions, I'll gladly help to fix your Elephone earpiece if it's broken.
I recently change my lcd screen without frame. Then I notice a membrane that leads to the microphone and at the top for the earpiece. On my point of view this is for waterproofing the phone. Since I open the phone and now have no intention to use the phone in water or any other liquid (rain). Will it be okay if I will remove this membrane on the earpiece and microphone at the bottom to improve the quality? Your thoughts?
Btw I am also checking if I can remove the membrane at the bottom speaker to improve its speaker.
asd
The small top hole is one of the microphones. There's an identical one on the bottom of the phone. So, you can make stereo recordings.

The earpiece actually turns into a 3rd microphone for high decibel environments, like live concerts.
But that top one is one of the two "regular" microphones.
Thanks, I thought so. Is it only for recording, or for noise reduction too? Recording I don't care about. Also, should I plug it with glue?

On autopilot I was going to put in a SIM card in my brand new phone and pressed where the hole was on my previous phone. Bad mistake, I guess... I probably put it right through something vital. Because I used the small hole at the top of the phone. Not the side. The light wasn't all that good, so I didn't notice that there was no SIM holder there. My guess is that it is a mike of some sorts, but I tried to record sound and had no problems with that. And it seems like there's a mike at the bottom of the thing too. So what did I mess up this time?
Edit: And does this mean that the phone isn't water resistant anymore? Can I stuff a bit of black silicone glue (the type used in bathroooms) in there with the pointy tool to make it water resistant again?
Edit 2: Oh, please drop the idiot jokes. I know it! Googling I have seen that I am far from the only one that has done that, I just would like to know exactly what it is on this phone, and if I should plug the hole to keep i waterproof. That's rather important for me, because I am an avid hobby crawfish and crab fisher and will probably get water splashing over this.

Aren't there barometer measuring apps for that ?
I read that by checking on pressure you can find out if your phone is still water resistant

How about fixing it?

If you don't want to tackle it, cell phone repair shop can.
That top mic is probably used for noise reduction during phone calls (since it's the top mic and you would speak into the bottom one), but used for recording stereo when actually recording? I'm sort of guessing on this.
If someone who is audio has better answer, jump in.
zacharias.maladroit, I have also read that. But I have read that it doesn't work as well, since the holes "breathe", they are mes of goretex or similar material. But I'll try anyway, thanks.
ChazzMatt, Interesting, thanks! Looking at that video at around 4:55 it may seem like the pin must have penetrated to the side of the microphone! I think I see the pinhole to the right of where the actual microphone is. As for fixing it, I am far to clumsy. But using a shop is of course an option, the only thing is that the phone is brand new and I'm guessing I'll loose the warranty for that. But I think I will first of all find out if the microphone isn't damaged, and then I will see what happens when I cover the hole. If it doesn't change the call qualty I will probably choose (at least for now) to glue shut that pinhole. If it is a problem for call quality I can maybe live with that using a silicone case and a piece of electrical tape over the pinhole when I go out to fish.

Yeah, 4:55 - 5:30 on that video shows taking out the old mic and putting in the new, for anyone else who needs to do it.
I thought it was the portal through which the Little Green men inVariably came out 30 times each night to hide your car keys, TV remote, and generally turn your life into a living hell?
