Hi guys,
I've been looking for a couple of weeks now how to solve the problem with both the microphones not working on my Xperia U st25i.
After trying everything I've read about this topic (disabling the live wallpapers, Live Manager, soft reset, repair with PCCompanion, etc) I haven't been able to find a solution. So I ask a friend of mine, that has the same model, if I could disassembly his phone and try to connect the bottom part (where the primary microphone is allocated) to my phone to see if at least my primary mic would work. When I was at the point of disassembling the bottom part of his phone I saw that the ribbon connected to the phone could break so I decided not to go any further. So I reassembled his phone and the result was that now his primary mic isn't working. So now I have one phone with both microphones not working and another one with the primary microphone not working.
Anyone knows what could I have done disassembling my friend's phone to break the primary microphone?
Thanks
Ok guys, I've finally figured out. Turns out usually the zif connector has a black plate that holds the connector in place, but for some reason this two phones didn't have it. So the solution was to bend a little downwards the little pins above the ribbon so they can make contact to the ribbon itself. Now the mics are working.
SOLVED.

After replacing my touch screen the internal speaker is not working anymore. I can only find external speakers for the TP2 on sites like ebay.
Anyone who knows how to find this part?
Now I can only use the external microphone to communicate. I just noticed that when I am charging the battery and switch from external to internal speaker, the telephone stops charging. (Charging light indicator is orange when I use internal speaker and is off when I switch to external speaker) Could this mean that something is wrong in the elec. scheme?

First of all hard reset and use your phone with no extra progs.
THen if the issues insists go there
http://shop.ebay.co.uk/i.html?_nkw=...h+pro+2&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
and ask everybody on that list if they can get the internal speaker you need.
most probably it is common , and someone just needs to go into the trouble of finding exactly which model it is!
I am pretty confident it is gonna prove to be the same as the diamond 2 (maybe you recall from when you opened it up if it is the same!)

An since you are already familiar with it, why not give it another go with dismantling the phone and putting back together (maybe a loose connection somewhere?!)
Thnx!
It is the part in the first link you gave me. I couldn't find it cheaper as that ebay link! It a used part, but if it works it's good enough
This instruction video helped us a lot with replacing the screen. (and braking the speaker :s)

Any news?
again, did you do it?
Dissapeared ???
I had the same issue happen after I changed my digitizer upon reassemble I realized that upon removing the flex cable I missed the most important thing when removing the flex cable to lift the internal. Speaker with the clex if not the connection between the two will snap very easy and viola your stuck using spkr phone like me just buy a new flex cable and you back in business or soder it either way

i have the same problem since yesterday ..the internal speaker has loose contact and i have to press the phone hard to hear something..with loudspeakers it works normal
what can i do?
Hey guys, I have a hardware issue but first the background story
So my phone fell on concrete and the screen broke. I bought a digitizer and replaced it myself. After a month or so, I broke it again. I replaced it, but the unit I got was faulty, and I only got the replacement today.
I opened the phone again and replaced the digitizer, and it's working great!
however in the process I must have done something wrong since my audio/sound doesn't work anymore.
1)Loud speaker works just fine and the microphone works since I am able to talk to people and they hear me
2) When I plug in my earset, the sound works just fine on the earphone. The microphone switches over the earset's microphone and I can hear/talk just fine.
The only problem that I have is I can't hear anything if i put phone next to my ear :/ I opened again looked around, but didn't find anything obvious that might explain wha went wrong. Would anyone know where to look/what to test?
Cheers
anyone any idea please? D:
I haven't opened up my Mozart just yet but from my experience with HTC phones I would suggest checking the contacts of the speaker. They tend to have little springs on the speaker that come in contact with the mainboard and this is how the signal is transmitted. If these contacts are damaged then you will not hear anything.
With all the drops you may have damaged the speaker itself but I'm not sure of a way you could test that.
The problem i had was that I used my sony ericsson X8 headset and the sound came out funny, the thing that was cuasing it was the microphone. Try stock headset to see if it works. If it doesnt then you might want to get someone to check it or fix it. Up to you.
I fix all kinds of smartphones for a living. I convinced my buddy to get an LTEvo but his microphone is not working properly. I figured I could just open it up and replace the microphone with a new one. However, I am not sure as to where exactly it is located. I noticed the mic hole on the bottom of the phone and I assume the mic is located on the large flex cable that extends downward toward the bottom of the phone. Would this be accurate? I have included a link to a parts vendor in order to verify that this is indeed the correct part that I need in order to fix his issue.

While I can't help you completely, there are two mics. One on the top, one on the bottom. I installed a new screen so I disassembled the phone a few times getting everything working correctly. I don't remember if the mic was on the flex cable or if it was part of the boards located on the top and bottom of the phone.
Good luck though.
Edit: found my old screen. I think you're good with those flex cables. Just make sure you get them for both the top and bottom mics.

hi guys i need some hardware infos.
my short story: i got a hox+ stuck in a boot loop it was sure that it was not a software problem so i replaced the battery, that didnt fix the problem after some testing i found out that the problem comes from the power button cable, i pulled the connection off and the bootloop was gone, i repluged it and the bootloop returned. so i thought maybe the screws are fixed to strong, after several plugs & replugs and my decision to not put the top screw back inside and dont fix the other screws so strong, for a little bit more flexibility between the mainboard and the chase the problem went away and seems fixed.
But now a other problem appears, my top ear speakers stopped working, sometimes they work and sometimes not
so my questions are:
1. has the power button flex cable anything todo with the function of the top ear speakers?
2. is it possible the speaker didnt connect probably because the top screw is missing?
3. is this w*w.ebay.com/itm/New-HTC-One-X-S720e-G23-Power-On-Off-Button-Flex-Cable-/251492842139?pt=US_Cell_Phone_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item3a8e243a9b compatible with the hox+ (international)?
4. is this w*w.ebay.com/itm/HTC-One-X-Ear-Speaker-w-Adhesive-Replacement-Repair-Part-OEM-/271110152540 the same as this w*w.ebay.com/itm/HTC-One-X-Plus-Ear-Speaker-w-Adhesive-Replacement-Repair-Part-OEM-/281124922511 or are they different?
sorry for my bad english, i hope u can understand me anyway
