Nexus 5 bought with broken screen. Received new screen + housing and replaced myself. No sound when reassembled. Order new speaker, install new speaker. Still no sound. I've disassembled/reassembled the device about a dozen times now, no apparent missing connections. It produced sound just fine in the original housing with cracked screen. Any ideas? Thanks!
Are you running custom rom or stock? Try reflashing the system.

Clean your connections, check all of your connections...
running stock all the way around. Factory Reset 10 to the 24th times.
If it's a drop that happened, something else is probably damaged. Not sure how you'd determine what... But it's an obvious possibility.
The sound was working just fine with the broken screen though.
Yup, then it's your replacements or the installation. Not much else it could be. I seriously doubt it has anything to do with software.
Hope you figure it out!
I've read a few threads on the screen Flickering and there doesn't seem to be any resolution .
I'm on my 3rd tablet now (thanks best buy accident damage warranty!) And this one is flickering worse lately than ever. I updated to the latest firmware, yesterday only to boot up to horrible bouts of flickering during the setup screens.
The odd thing is, there seem to be no consistency to it. Some days it's so had I can't even use the thing, other days it doesn't happen at all. I use the tablet every day for notes or PDF viewing. I've used it with no magnetic cover (totally naked) and with the cover.. doesn't seem to change the occurrences.
I've turned overlays on/off force gpu render on/off.. nothing seems to fix it. Sometimes changing the overlay will reduce the flickering other times it doesn't affect it at all.
I hate to say it, but if I can't resolve it, I'm going to be forced to move to the surface 3.
I'm an electrical engineer and I've done as much trouble shooting as I can think to do.. but I've come up empty handed.
Anyone else have these problems? Has anyone found a definitive fix?
I sent mine back 3 times. The first was a reset. Thanks for wasting my time. The second was a motherboard and that didn’t do it. The third time they did a motherboard, digitizer, and usb port. It's finally stable and back to normal. After 5 trips back, the BB warranty triggers a new unit. Check if it triggers a refund.
I get it occasionally, so far I'm able to resolve it by booting into custom recovery (TWRP) and clearing dalvic to allow all apps to rebuild. Sometimes this resolves it for a few days, sometimes a couple of weeks. Its a repeatable "fix" that makes me question if the issue is related to memory or trim or something like that. Kind of reminds me of how with the first generation nexus 7s one would see slow downs after a while and filing storage with fake data then deleting it would improve performance for a while.
I'm definitely not a tender user of the device. I go back and forth between multiple ROM's and kernels on a daily basis testing what is testable, and unfortunately also what is not. Anyway, even though mine was bought as refurbished on eBay, I have never had any issues like the ones you describe. More specifically, I have never had any issues what-so-ever, that was not created due to my own ignorance. To me the device seems indestructible.
Besides, I would hate to be in the place of my device, or I would definitely have turned schizophrenic. Should I feel bad about pushing it through all this?
Because we're trying to figure out if it's related to a specific device type, which one do you have? P900, 905, 907A or another?

P900 wifi. Us version bought at best buy.
Today the tablet has been rock solid, I have literally done nothing between when it was flickering like mad and now.
I wonder if it might be related to some kid of data transfer. either over wifi, or when data is written or read from storage or SD card. I've take then SD card out to eliminate that as the problem.
Mine was P900 from BB
Issue lies with the screen.
This happened with me I sent it back to Samsung, 3 times. They seem to have finally got it right. They replaced the battery and then the display screen. Now it appears to be working I will let you know after a month if it is still good. They also told me that they will not replace the device even though I bought it and the issue was right from the start. Not even 6 months old. When working the device is excellent.
Ah, so now we know for sure the battery is replaceable. That's good news. Maybe someday our batteries will no longer hold a charge and we can replace it. Now for a good video on tear down and what tools to use to do that and where to get a replacement battery. I know it's early for most of us but someday......we will have to replace that battery. I'm one of those that keep my toys (computers/laptops/tablets/phones,) for many years.
Mine is running like new since last service. Getting the BB Geek Squad warranty has paid for itself already. I get 2 years on anything over $500.
Mine is a p900. I purchased from samsung website. Mine has been doing it fresh out of box. So bummed.
Ive had my 12.2 since march and it recently started flickering. It seems to tuen of the screen for a millisecond especially when lots of refreshes happen. Like scrolling a pdf. A few days back it was bad. Now it has gotten better and I havent noticed anything.

My P900 has just begun flickering exactly as you describe. So I should just be patient and hope it goes away by itself?
I'm flickering again. Turning the screen brighter is what triggers it for me. Returning to stock just to get it back and have it flicker again to hit the magic 5 returns may be what I have to do.
https://youtu.be/CvxbVft69Kg
I just followed this guide. Its been a week now, not had any flickering since I did it.

Lifting the motherboard only temporary close the gaps of cracked battery connector. The permanent fix need to do: re solder the battery connector.
Look closely under magnified glass or microscope , you'll see the cracked solders. You can test by pushing the connector slightly, a bad one will move easily or lift off from its solder joints.
This video was removed from the poster after I pointed out his guessing solution. Flickering screen has nothing to do with LCD connector on the motherboard.
Lifting mother board actually you're applying pressure on the battery connector from rear cover.
I have had my P900 sent to Samsung service twice without having the screen flicker fixed. I thought this was a known problem and that Samsung themselves should be aware of it? Maybe I should supply some XDA links next time...

Depend on where you send for service, they know how to fix it now. Service Centers actually are contractors provide services for Samsung and others, the fact that most people don't know.

It Works. Battery connector replaced. Smoooooth
After 2 visits to Samsung , my unit finally works fine.
Motherboard and LCD were changed first time. But issue persisted.
Second time, battery connector was replaced. Since then it has worked very very smoothly.

Well I have been a owner of a LG Nexus 5 for the past (almost) 2 years now, in fact I am coming to the end of my contract very soon and will be able to either goto another company or get a new phone.
Anyways, sometime ago I experienced a problem with my microphone and external speakers not working, or at at least some of the time... After a bit of research online I found out my problem was related to a connection inside the phone that connected the bottom assembly to the main board at the top of the phone. It required me to remove the back panel and a few screws to remove the plastic cover, but the poster suggested putting some tape on top of that connection to hold it down more firmly to the socket it connected too. So I did this. I put some black tap (electrical tape cut to fit.) on top and then assembled the phone again. Viola, It worked!
Well, a short time after I decided that I wanted to update my phone from stock kitkat (4.4.4). Always been curious about custom ROMs and gave Cyanogenmod a try. Not only that I got bold and tried the nightly releases of the new marshmellow update. After some time I started experiencing things not working, like the camera, and a lot of freezing, hang ups and random reboots (not so much the reboots as the constant freezing). Often I couldn't get anything on the screen or the phone to respond from a locked state and when I did, often the phone would lag so much, that doing anything would take a long time and proved to be impossible.
I started thinking it was the nightly releases as the source of my problem and just kind of shrugged it off and figured "they will eventually fix the problem". I kept this thinking for quite some time. But it occurred too me one day that something else was causing the issue I was facing for the simple fact that the lag started showing up in the recovery mode (also custom) and a lot of times would continue to show up after I rebooted my phone. Hence, would rule out any 'software' issues I was facing.
I began to think that my problem was hardware. Maybe it was just time for a new phone. But still months away from the end of my contract, this meant I would have to pay off the 'problematic' phone first before getting a new one. I really didn't like that idea. So while looking into this problem, in a last ditch effort, I opened my phone again. Dunno why but I also decided to get rid of the tap on the connection I tried to fix before... I popped off the connection there and had a look at it. It didn't seem damaged in any way nor did the socket. Strange as it was I put that connect back in the socket and put the cover plate back on making sure not to torque the screws and assembled everything back up....
Now the mic and ext speakers work just fine and the phone is working like I just opened the box and took it out for the first time. And I have not once seen any problems... I understand what's happening here... still just wanted to share that for it was definitely weird or what?
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0pUNVcVRCJ7MThMc0NHLUNkSEU
Sorry about the link, only way I can upload an image.
Just so there is no confusion... an image of the effected area, inside the phone. The arrow points to the connector and more importantly the area of the connector that seems damaged. If I press lightly where the arrow is pointing on this image, the assemable at the bottom (speaker/mic) will work, indicating a loose connection. Although after visual inspection, I cannot see any damage to connector or the socket. I suppose the only way to really "fix" the issue is to order a new part. As stated previously, already tried tape on the socket to help hold it down, but that seem to cause just as many issues with the phone performance. Any other suggestions?
When ordering a replacement part, you need to be careful because there was another XDA member replaced the same part with a cheap 3rd party solution and the phone would not charge until he replaced it with an oem part.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/to-buy-usb-charging-port-flex-cable-t3314357
Does anyone else have issues with there ext. speaker and mic not working?
An update on the phone;
back to square one. My ext speaker and mic will not work. And that socket has something to do with the LCD connection on the screen as it will black out if just the right area on the back of the phone is pressed. Only way to revive the phone is to long-press the power button for a reboot. Then will come up fine but speaker and mic still do not work.

Wow, that sounds pretty low level tactics of LG... just shameful really, but not hard to believe these days...
Quite honestly, I am just going to replace the phone. Think I got a pretty good run out of it and think its pretty well time for an upgrade. Anyway, for the reason I got the phone, it wont matter the speaker and mic don't work. Just going to use it for development and it will be a good test device.
Oh an this post is related to this thread so I thought I would link it for it may help someone else facing similar problems....

I'm not sure that LG had anything to do with the low-quality replacement parts.
If I were you, look for a n5 with a smashed screen that is suitable for parts.

Good idea, except the iphone is the most popular phone around here ... find it pretty hard to find one, been looking. But thanks.
I have seen quite a few busted n5 phones in Toronto. I have managed to get working phones with a smashed screen for as little as $30 which is rare for Toronto. Average I pay is $40 to $50. For this price, I either use the phone for parts in several phones or I get third part screen from Aliexpress for around $40 CAD.
I just want to update this as well...
I am fairly certain (now thinking about causes) its not really a design flaw, but more so because I frequently sat on my phone when it was in my back pocket...

It was not me but I had that same experience. Replaced with a cheap oem and it didn't charge after that.
I found out why. The charger usb socket was not connected to anything ! Unbelievable! It lacked the black plastic backing for that part of the cable to connect to.
I have run into the dreaded headphone jack problem. The phone won't play audio through the speakers and doesn't use the microphone because it thinks that headphones are connected. I've tried resetting it to factory settings and it didn't fix anything which is why I think it's not a software problem.
After some Googling I found that I'm not the only one to have this problem and that Google is replacing the units with this hardware fault. Unfortunately I didn't buy the phone via play store so I can't return it directly to google.
I'd like to try and fix it myself. If anyone knows where I could buy a headphone jack for the 5" pixel I'd be very grateful. Before I buy the replacement part I was thinking of removing the headphone jack and trying to start the phone like without it. My reasoning is that the phone would then default to playing the sound through speakers and I would be sure that it's a headphone jack problem. Would that work at all or the phone won't even start?
I need your advice and opinions, thanks

I ordered a replacement headphone jack and as soon as it arrives, within the next 2 weeks I hope, I'll replace it and see if that gets it fixed.
A couple of more details:
-problems started about 3 days after updating to Oreo
-at the beginning the volume would first turn itself gradually down to zero and I had to fight it with the volume up (I would always lose eventually xD)
-there was usually a loud pop heard through the headphones after that 'battle' and then the audio and mic would completely cut off
-restarting the phone would enable the audio and mic again but the problems returned as soon as I plugged in the headphones again (tried with several different headphones)
-factory reset didn't fix it and after a couple of days of problems I'm now stuck with no audio at all and no mic input
-my phone can't recognize the headphones anymore
I have the exact struggle, restart will work for a while and then problem return, when I contacted google they offered a replacement but since I'm not in Canada at the moment, they will not be able to process my replacement request, but google representative told me that I can try and replace the mic with the charging port(as it all comes together) and it should fix the issue, but I also think that it might be the headphones jack, also this happened after I tried Android O beta.

I'm still waiting on the part to arrive. I'm expecting it within the next two weeks. I'll try to document the replacement with photos and/or video so others can do it if it turns out successful
Okay guys, here's the update with some good news and some bad news.
The replacement headphone jack arrived yesterday and the good news is that I replaced it and it seems to have fixed the problem! Yay!
But the bad news is that in the process I damaged the LCD screen so now I'm waiting on a replacement LCD. I guess I should've expected that because the screen and LCD itself are extremely sensitive and the damage is not even visible, but it's simply not working anymore.
So how do I know it actually works? Well since the phone used to be paired to my PC via bluetooth, whenever I turn on my PC a notification sounds on my phone if I want to pair or not.
Minor bad news - I tried to record the whole process as a tutorial for anyone who'll try to fix this themselves but my camera's battery died halfway and I lost everything I recorded.
Here are the 2 teardown videos I used for guidance: First and Second. I highly recommend you watch them entirely before attempting anything.
I got the headphone jack on eBay from here. It is totally overpriced but it's the only place I was able to find it.
I'm getting my replacement LCD and adhesive for it from Replace Base

I definitely recommend others try to get Google to replace it. I got mine from Swappa second hand and they still respected the warranty. Much easier and cheaper than replacing it yourself.
wow its nice to hear that it work, but some say that its the charging port board that has a problem(the location of the microphone). should i buy headphone jack replacement or charging port board?
yesterday i put i my pixel into freezer for 2 hour(i tried this because it help my previous phone which is nexus 5x come back to life for a while haha) and rebooted to safe mode and tried to record and microphone work, rebooted to normal and until now it still work, but im hoping that your replace method would be a permanent fix and i will do that too.
please update this thread again as soon as you replace your lcd
thank you
Another update. I got the replacement screen today but the problem hasn't been fixed. Well, partly it has been. The speaker now finally works when nothing is plugged in but the phone can't recognize any headphones. So, like Mattish13, if you can get it replaced by Google do so. Fixing things on my own is my hobby and was logical since I couldn't get mine replaced by Google, but this fix is not worth your time or money, trust me. I'm guessing the next thing to get replaced would be the daughterboard, maybe that would fix the problem finally, but in my opinion it's not worth it.
Ironic how so many problems with the headphone jack appeared for so many people and at the same time Google decided to ditch the jack for Pixel 2 :laugh:
Edit: just to be clear, since I already invested in a new screen and new jack, I will drop in another 25$ for the new daughterboard. If that doesn't fix it, nothing can

Yes, sorry for forgetting to post earlier. I changed the daughterboard and it appeared to be working perfectly. But about 30 minutes later the microphone again wasn't working and there was no audio. I was back at the beginning.
Then I did a factory reset and again it worked. But every time, after about 30 minutes it stops working. At this point I have no idea what the exact problem is.
I've definitely fixed it partly somehow because before I couldn't get the microphone and speaker to work at all. Now I can, but it fails after some time eventually. The headphones jack works normally until the failure happens.
I've tried the freezer trick after that and had no noticeable improvement. My theory now is that the problem probably was on the daughterboard but the replacement one I got (which is actually a refurbished part) might have had the same problem but not as serious as my original part.

Thanks for the update, interesting... Maybe the daughterboard is faulty as well, but didn't Google response was that there is a crack line in the audio codec, as far as I know the audio codec is on the motherboard, I guess this problem won't be fixed after all, it is really annoying!! I wanted to get another pixel maybe XL this time, I found some offers with used ones, but now I am really afraid to buy one and this problem appears with the second phone.
Yes, found that response but unfortunately changing the motherboard is not possible because I couldn't find any place that sells them and I guess it's the same as getting a new phone in the end ?
I ended up getting a pixel XL but Google said this problem appears on devices manufacturered before March 2017,so I made sure when I was buying that I got a device manufactured after that and I did. So far so good ?

Do you mean your phone had warranty till 2019 or all pixel devices, because when I contacted Google the guy on the phone told me my phone has warranty till Jan 2018, which sucks in my case as I'm at the moment outside of Canada and won't be returning till summer 2018

I believe all pixel devices because I bought mine just after they came out in Australia... Phone screen broke and when I replaced it I had these problems... Told Google it was a hassle contacting my australian provider and would cost alot and they said it had warranty until '19 and that they would replace it here in the states free of charge... It may have been only till '18 but my first pixel was faulty as well and I had it exchanged out there n straya so maybe that's why it is until 2019
Hello,
I recently tried to replace...well...basically everything on my S6 edge. It was severely damaged, and i've been wanting to learn how to repair phones for a while now. Anyways, the phone's speaker is no longer working. I've bought two speakers and tried both of them and neither fixed the issue. I've tried resetting and wiping the cache as well. I've also tried installing the default ROM (i cant remember the program, but it's the most known one out there). I've tried everything that I know of and it still doesn't work.
If this is needed, I go to google music app thats default on there and try to play "over the horizon" song. No sound.
I've replaced this on the phone:
Motherboard
LCD
Battery
2x Speakers
Thanks
Replaced the motherboard, and no sound? That's impossible, unless the replaced motherboard is damaged, too.
There's a speaker controller on the bottom side of the motherboard, it's covered, and as far as I know, it can't be damaged easily.
The speaker has two connectors that needs to be correctly connected. Unless you mistaken it, there's no way the speaker won't work.
