Hi guys,
I've got a problem with H8. After a rainy day I've noticed that the speaker sounds quietly and on a higher tones the sound is not clear. Is there a chance to fix the speaker or is it permanently damaged?
Thanks.
I use a hair dryer when my speakers get wet, works every time

I dont know what happend suddenly the speaker phone stopped working when I Was on speaker phone mode. I restarted the phone and tried all different kinds of ****. Finally I popped open the back camera cover and I could see the speaker. I was playing something on my Windows media and I could not hear anything. The moment I touuched the speaker with the stylus it started playing loudly but the moment I pull the stylus back it stops working. Can some one please explain me what is the problem with my speakers. Do I need to replace them ? if yes then where can I get them replaced in United states.
Yes mate, I had the same problem. I have a HTC Charmer and my speaker died while using tomtom. I openned and discovered the same thing, that touching the speaker causes it to respond again and dies again. Its basically the speaker "moved" too much for its own good and the wire carrying signal to its coil got damaged/broken.
While you could temporarily fix it by trying to glue the broken wire, it may not do any good. And can't solder it as the wire is stuck on the speaker cone surface which is plastic. For a few days mine worked by placing a flexible peice of plastic in such a way that it constantly applied very light pressure on the place where the wire was broken, and the contact was maintained, but obviously such a solution is short lived.
At present I am also looking for where to buy a spare speaker from, but can't help you in this regard as am in UK.
Hope this helps in some way.
Happened to my Prophet. It's currently away for a warranty repair.
Seems like a very common problem.
Hello. Yesterday, as it was massively raining in my city, my M2 got a little wet. After I got home, I cleaned it up with a dry piece of cloth and checked if everything was ok. It worked perfectly. But today I noticed that the sound coming from external speaker is really really quiet and noisy. I really cannot listen to any music due to that problem and the notifcations are really quiet, even though all the volume is set to max level. I even did a master reset, but it didn't help. If that information is helpful, I use the official stock KitKat rom.
I've also read that Xperia Z series had the same problem with the external speaker after it got wet. But getting it all dry helped to solve that problem, so right now I'm keeping my M2 in a bowl full of dry rice to get that water evaporate.
Has any of you had a similar problem or have an idea how to solve that?
Regards
Same problem here.
Did the bowl of rice fix the problem?
Well I dropped my OPO into a creek in about 2 feet of water. After being submerged for about 15 minutes I thought it was toast. I put it in the ol' bag of rice for a few days and to my absolute amazement it booted right up and works flawlessly except for one issue.
The loudspeakers are so quiet at full volume you can barely hear them. Earpiece speaker works fine. I popped the back off and took the speaker assembly out and removed one of the two speakers. It looks fine and there is no moisture in it. If I set it on the board contacts at full volume I can barely hear it play.
Do you think a new pair of speakers would fix the issue? Can I test the board outputs to see if its putting out enough juice to run the speakers? Any thoughts or input would greatly be appreciated!
Hey - same happened to me! Except much less water! I put my OPO in a damp pocket after heavy rain (!) and it seemed to be a goner. 2 days later after putting it in a bowl of rice it works fine now, phone speaker and microphone work, only thing not working is the lower/music speakers. Headphones work fine too. Any easy way to replace/fix this? Heard a loud crackling/static noise coming from the speakers after the initial water exposure if that means anything.
I'm another one looking for a solution to this issue.
Anyone found one? Thinking about trying to replace the speakers, but not wanting to faff with that if that isn't the problem.
Word of advice to everyone. Don't drop your phone in the bath!!!
I am in the same situation as well, sent it for speaker replacement and the repair guy showed that even replacing the speaker module will result in low volume output. Nothing can be done unless replacing the motherboard maybe?
I sent it to a local shop, not the service centre by the way.

This happened to me as well. I was biking and crashed, falling into an overflowing ditch, completely drenching my pocket and my OPO inside.
I immediately took it home (my laptop got drenched too ;w; that one's at Asus being fixed) and left it in rice for the rest of the day, only to find that the speaker played, just barely audible at full volume, and the microphone and ear piece worked perfectly fine. I bought replacement speakers shortly afterward and replaced them, but, like kaz93 said, didn't do anything, it was still really quiet. It must be on the logic board or something.
I'm probably just gonna get the Google Pixel when it comes out XD
Speakers are the most sensitive part of this phone. I also had to replace mine after watering the device. You can afford them cheap for just a few bucks on aliexpress and they work perfectly
hello,
any idea how to "fix" sound from reproduktor after pull phone from water? sound is very silent and crackling
thx
so i have found that 1h wait to get phone dry is enough to get good sound from repro again
Hi everyone,
During the COVID-19 i was cleaning my phone with hand sanitizer. After a while the sound from ear phone very low and I can't hear the other person.
There is anyway to remove the sanitizer from speakers without opening the phone?
