I had to disassemble my Note 2 yesterday to clean the proximity sensor, which had stopped working properly. When I put it back together, the MIC stopped working while I am in Speaker mode. The MIC works fine otherwise, but if I put the phone call into Speaker mode, the person on the other end cannot hear me. I disassembled it again to make sure all cables and connectors are plugged in, and they seem to be. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am running Sophisticated. Thanks in advance.

So, I've replaced the phone's glass/digitizer, and after reassembly, everything but the earpiece speaker is functioning. Upon closer examination it looks like this piece:

has fallen off. It's ridiculously tiny:

Is this piece even sure to be the reason the earpiece won't work? If so, is there any way it can be reattached, or am I totally screwed?
Did you ever find a solution to this?
I am also wondering if you figured this out.
I have an Atrix that worked fine for months but one day the speaker stopped working. We had it sent it for warranty repair and it came back only to work once. It appeared to be working but the speaker 'popped' and stopped working as soon as we turned up the volume.
I then bought a replacement speaker ribbon cable myself and after putting it in, the exact same thing happened again: On first impression the new speaker worked, but then we turned up the volume and *pop*, the speaker is broken.
Upon looking at the speaker that I pulled out during my own replacement, there is a resistor missing like in your pictures. However, it's a different one of the six. I am willing to bet that the speaker in the phone now is also missing a resistor since the pop.
I have a Vibrant on which the sound stopped working. I would appreciate any input on diagnosing the issue.
I bought the phone for my daughter to use as an PMP with no cell service. It got it super cheap because it wasn't working. The previous owner had gotten it wet, which is confirmed by the water damage indicators. He said it worked up until he couldn't get it to turn on. I diagnosed an issue with the power button and replaced it. It powered on and worked fine all day. The one issue I noticed was that it wouldn't shut down all the way. It gets stuck on the pink square that says, "good bye" and then I have to remove the battery.
My daughter spent the evening playing Bag Piggies and Happy Street with the sound working fine. After she went to bed I loaded some music on it via a USB cable. I think the sound may have stopped after that, but am not sure. When I got up this morning no sound would come from the speaker or the headphone jack. Otherwise, it works fine. Though no sound comes out of the headphones the player stops when I remove the headphones, so it must know the headphones are in. Sound does work when I connect it to my Blue Tooth speaker. I tried a factory reset, but it didn't make any difference.
I read in another thread that someone said something about the sound, light and proximity sensors are all connected by one cable. I can't test the proximity sensor because I can't use the phone function, but it seems that the light sensor isn't working. With auto brightness on the brightness doesn't change when I cover the sensor or hold it up to light. I did disconnect this cable and re-connect it a couple of times, but nothing made any difference.

What Rom are you running?
It is stock, but it is rooted.
I am pretty sure it is the part that is all connected between the earpiece, headphone jack and sensors. I ordered a replacement from e-bay which looks exactly the same, but the plug is just a tiny bit different, so it didn't work. Frustrating.
You should use Odin to flash a stock firmware first to see if it solve the issue with the shut down.
About the parts, you might have gotten the S4G (T959V) headphone jack which if I remember correctly do no fit the T959. However, the speaker, camera, slimslot and screen are exchangeable between the two.
Has anyone had issues with the external speaker on the i9100?...
Mine will sometimes work for a few seconds then cut out...sometimes it won't even do that, just emitting a "click", like when you unplug a connection...ringtones never work (ever)...(and no, it's not on "silent")
The headphone jack works fine (and has been replaced already), and I've tried the "plug in plug out" solution. The call speaker (against the ear when on a call) works fine, and the Mic works fine....
I'm running cm10 and the latest siyah kernel, but this was happening when I was on stock and not rooted....
I replaced the speaker, and it worked perfectly for a day or so, then....not so much
Everything else is smooth as, and it's a great phone....would just be nice to be able to hear it ring is all...

did you recheck your speaker? maybe there was a loose wire or something.. there is a possibility that it may be a motherboard problem but i highly doubt it

Replace the USB flex cable board. I had the same exact problem. It instantly fix it but swapping that board my bring signal problems. Then refer to this thread.

all good now! i replaced the usb flex. when comparing the two boards, the new one has a slight curve in it that seems to bring the contacts closer to the speaker ...don't know if it's by design, but it works....my phone rang for the first time in ages this morning, and it scared the crap out of me
I have had this problem for a while now.
I don't have any sound from my loud speaker in my S2, and the microphone is not working either.
I can only hear sound/use a mic when I connect an earphone (mic working is the earphones' mic).
I replaced these parts with new ones:
- earpiece speaker flex cable ribbon
- Loud Speaker Ringer Buzzer
- USB dock port flex cable (since the mic is in this part)
Nothing changed.
I'm pretty certain it is not software-related issue since I installed many roms since, and I even got back to stock, but it won't change anything.
What do you guys think? Any way I can resolve this issue?

You are not gonna like my response but its time to visit service center or mobile repair shop.
Thanks ☺
It's probably the motherboard right? Don't see much value in reparing it if this is the case since phones are getting pretty cheap today...
Hi Moto Experts,
since a few days I have an issue with my moto z.
Phone Speaker and mic are only working when I make a call and switch to loudspeaker.
Besides calling mode they won´t work
I also tried headphone plugged in and then I can hear music or videosound but only on headphone.
Also ring tone works via phone speaker.
I tried to restart phone a few times but without luck.
What can be the problem here?
Also the usb-c plug isn´t working really good as it looses connection if you only move plugged cable a milimeter in wrong way, which shouldn´t be with usb-c.
This problem is there for a long time so accepted it but with mic and speaker not working the phone isn´t really useable
I searched here in moto-z forum but can´t find any similiar problems.
Do you have some troubleshooting ideas?
