DESIGN ISSUE? Speaker + vibration motor broke for the 2nd time
#8
i was about to make a post about a similar issue but thought I might as well just comment here... I wasn't getting sound from the rear speaker, and the problem ended up being that the cable that runs under the battery somehow got half-unplugged from the main board.
A few days ago though it came unplugged for the nth time, so I stuck some foam above the plugs to hold it down better, but now the speaker isn't working *again*... I'll need to investigate that 4-line cable. I drop my phone pretty often, but never from high enough to do much damage (or so I thought).
Would *loosening* that strip make any difference? If it's ripping, then I'd think the sharp angle and tension when the phone is flexed would be the obvious culprit. Maybe loosening those boards from their glue or whatever is holding them down and shifting them together a bit could help prevent this, in addition to reinforcing it...
