Top speakers are not working ? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

I think my Nexus 7 2013 Top speakers are not working. I tried putting my ear to it as close as possible and nothing and I guess it was low since I opened it. How can I check it as I hear other speakers and it is a bit confusing.
I was thinking of dailing the service menu but there is no phone etc. Any way I can check it please ?
A bit nervous
At first I thought, they were not speakers but then I checked the official support.
https://support.google.com/nexus/7/answer/3271665?hl=en&ref_topic=2847279
Is there any way to revive the speakers ?
EDIT : SOLVED

Thank you mate, I would have loved to do that but I shipped this unit in and It would not be here in the UK till September. So this means shipping it back and waiting for a long time for it again.
I know I took a risk and I am thinking of approaching Asus around September or later but I am just wondering of a way to make sure its faulty speakers. Maybe there is a bit I can do to make the speakers work.

Ah OK bro I didn't know that. Hmmm maybe open up the back and see if the speaker looks like it's installed properly. Like any loose wires or anything. The back comes off pretty easily. I wish I could help u out more and I hope you can get this fixed soon.

For now, it seems like I am not going to do anything as the warranty is till 2014 August. Once I have seen my options, I will see what seems most appropriate.
Cheers mate

Sounds like something is loose

I am hearing a clicking sound near the speaker when I hit gently the upper part of the phone.
Is this normal or something is loose inside. This happened from the beginning.
Any insight of what might make this sound is welcome.
Thank you
I think mine has some noise as well when i hit the top part of the phone.
You hear the shutter/focus part of your phone... Htc hero, Htc diamond, htc Legend all ''rattle'' when you tap them near the camera.

Sorry for saying this but I am quite happy to see I am not alone on this one. The thing that I hate the most is sending to warranty a new product.
Maybe someone knows more of this sound.

I got a Hype Mini Bluetooth Keyboard for like $9.99. Works fine, but I hardly even use it lol.
Freedom keyboard from Amazon
I had a friend who tried the previously linked keyboard from Amazon and he said it was of poor quality. He said that it felt like real cheap plastic and he broke it within a month. Now mind you I don't know how rough he was being with it, but that was his opinion on it.

[Q] Should i trade my Nokia N9 for a one x with a messed up LCD?

I sold my htc amaze a few months ago to buy the n9 and im getting tired of not having any app selections (it was cool at first), and the one x looks pretty sick. found someone on craigslist that is willing to trade but he dropped the phone and the screen doesn't turn on. he has a new digitizer for it but not an LCD. They aren't too expensive on ebay (found one for like $40). he said the phone turns on and everything works (capacitive buttons, sound, etc). The thing im worried about is if it has water damage, is there any way to find out? and if not do you guys think its worth it?
thanks
edit: nevermind did more searching on the water damage indicator and found it. still would like to know your opinions/advice though
A screen repair requires the digitiser and LCD. Just do a search for broken screen threads here.

thanks for your reply. yeah ive watched a few videos on it but since they are selling the LCDs on ebay separated from the digitizer I figured you could replace it itself..
edit: im reading on other threads that they are two separate units? some people are saying they are on unit and others are saying the opposite. starting to wonder if its worth it..

Official ones come as one unit and cost more. It'll cost about 150 UK pounds for official repair. Factor that into your cost, and the fact that it's second hand, and the fact you can't test it properly... Is it worth it? I doubt it, but a working One X is an incredible device.

this is what im looking at: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-LCD-DIS...930?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c7451912 you don't think this would be real? it also has 30 days money back so if it isn't the real deal..
Don't do it, go for a proper second hand device a fully working one, better to have the original screen as it's a lovely screen.

thank you, ill take your advice. it seems not many people are interested in the n9 as much as I thought they would.
It always feels good to have a new device which is fresh and you are much sure that it doesn't have a defect or something, if you're are looking for some advice, well for me, i will personally tell you that go and just buy a new one ( Fresh like Dougie )

LifeCase

Any "Life proof case" coming out for the HTC One soon?
that would be cool if they did but I'm not holding out much hope. Lifeproof claimed they were going to make one for the S3 but it never came out. If they make one, I bet it will be the S4 before they make one for the One. maybe an email to them will get them at least thinking about it.

Yes it would. I work in a very dirty environment. A lot of metal dust and such..ruined the speakers on my Atrix 2. Just picked up a HTC One yesterday, don't want the same thing to happen to it...
I'd be interested in something like this or similar. Perhaps another company does something?

When I used to be a metal finisher , we would put our phones in a zip lock bag to keep all the metal dust out. It worked really well and you could still use your phone. Just buy a box and keep them at work. Good luck!

Anyone with yellow tint at bottom of display?

Does anyone have yellow tint at the bottom of there display? Its not pink tint but off white. Very annoying. Not sure what to do.
Yup have it as well..now on my 2nd 10. Tianma panel. Having youtube on repeat during the past days on full brightness to see if the screen will get any better (dry out the glue). Can always try... right?
Otherwise it's going back for replacement...
Can you share the pic ..
mine has it too, I have my second 10 on the way and it should be here tomorrow. Really hoping that is fixed, so annoying. I'd keep it if the whites where consistent...

It will be here tomorrow, I ordered it really late on the 11th it immediately went to pending fulfillment and shipped Thursday night (12th) but with the weekend it will be here Tuesday. Not too bad but no they didn't upgrade shipment.
My uncles had this in his One V, it never went away even 3 years later.
Better to ask for a replacement, pink tint ''glue'' is different
Okay lol keep me posted buddy! I already had a return request for my phone as I was disappointed by the camera somewhat. Ill wait too see how your new one is and make a decision lol I dont wanna play find the good panel game lol

I agree, after google I got spoiled. I have never had such good support on a phone.But ironically I had the same screen issues on the 6P and I had to go through like 5 replacement units before having a good one
