Ear Piece dust - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Past few days at high volumes the top speaker voice is shattering. I removed the top grill and cleaned.Even after cleaning the problem persist. So i tried removing the black dust cover over the speaker and speakers were working perfect .
It seems the paste the culprit is the lose black dust cover over speakers.Any idea how I can stick it back properly or which adhesive to use
thanks

Are you sure there's not small metal fragments in that black screen? Metal fragments will do that.

[Q] Small bump in speaker grill is this normal

Hello,

Not damaged, have that too
This is normal mate...
The bump on speaker grill is not only to ur handset.This is in order to avoid blockage of holes of grill when u place it on any flat surface and the sound can be listened better through the gap.

Yes, that's an unfortunate side-effect of that little bump.

Speaker Grill

A small issue thats bugging me is that the top speaker grill gets easily clogged up when using the phone. as they are so small to even clean correctly and already mines looking horrible and dirty but no way to get into the grills to pick it clean or blow it out.
a fine needed however slow and sometimes painful as the needle needs to be so small you end up hurting your thumb.
tape over the grill doesnt seem to be collecting it
ive read compressed air may not work if it cant blow it up due to the size.
The only thing i can think of would be something like cyber clean putty so has anyone got some and does it work?

Worth trying a Dyson vacuum or the likes
I have a normal Dyson but and tried it but doesnt seem strong enough to get it out the gril. hair products probally didnt help the grill
I have an Axon 7 and I heard using a clean toothbrush to clean the speakers helps. Maybe the same can be done on the Razer phone
I have used a strong magnet to get metal and a kneaded eraser to get some of the rest. I would not use compressed air, blowing into the speakers may ruin it.
Flicking the holes with a needle a few times and then a very soft tooth brush has worked good enough nice to have a pair of awesome speakers again
Try getting a small bristles paint brush guys, I've had front firing speakers on phones since the HTC One M7 and it works so well

Thanks for the tip, got it looking a lot cleaner now with a normal tooth brush but had to apply a little more pressure and cover screen just to prevent any damage
Another method i found useful is using those sticky gel to pick up the dirt, works for me, call Gulu cleaner gel, pick them up from amazon real cheapie
How do you prevent it from happening in the first place

Pixel XL 2 - Uneven bottom speaker grill / white gunk

Hey guys,
Just noticed my bottom speaker grill is uneven. The right portion of the grill looks slightly caved in. I also noticed what looks like white gunk or glue at the bottom of the speaker.
Does anyone have that too? I never pressed it down, I just tried to remove the gunk with a cloth but it doesnt go away. Even with a fingernail.
Soft bristle brush with light back and forth action.
Toothbrush, painter's brush, or anything else similar to that.

Dirt Top Speaker Grid

Slowly, day by day, incall volume decreased.
I compared mi mi6 with a newer one, a friend's MI6, and I found out that my top speaker grid is completely clogged with dust and dirt... I tried to clean that with a needle and a vacoon, it worked, but after some hours the volume decreased another time...
How about you? Are you facing a similar problem? How you solved? Or how would you solve?
P.s.: Top speaker also have very little holes, is pretty difficult to clean.
use old toothbrush to clean the grill
face the grill downside so that the dust come out

That happened to you too? I'm going to try
Mi6 is almost water resistang BUT NOT THE USB PORT
So basically you can clean it with water or alcohol. Be careful with pointy objects.

I don't really suggest any liquids other than ones made specifically for electronics. Alcohol is a good one or some water with its charge removed (forgot the name). The Mi 6 has no water resistance rating. They just say it has some sealing against water so take the advice with a pinch of salt. Sony made all their phones "water resistant" and later recalled the claims :/
I cleaned some small fibers from my ear speaker using bluetac gently pressed against it. GENTLY!!!
You can clean the bottom speaker with a pin gently around the very outer part.
Don't put the pin actually inside or it will get damaged. Just the outside parts.
Its not too bad to clean luckily. Not ideal that there are places for dirt to build up but many phones have this issue
Hello friends:
In the same way, over time the volume was decreasing until reaching the point of not listening to anything!
the problem is the blessed speaker, it seems to be clogged with dirt or I really do not know what happens.
I cleaned it with a contact cleaner for electric circuits and then with a suction vacuum for the outside ... and I really improved a lot, but I do not stay 100% as when I was new, a pity I am disappointed by this Mi6, apparently they are equipment with failures factory.
regards,
JC
Hi, with a toothbrush and contact cleaner (electronic) on the speaker call, with circular movements I cleaned it and now if it sounds much better, I can say 100%, I noticed when I cleaned the speaker, there were some white particles, I guess that had saturated, obstructed in its entirety the output of the sound, even until the stereo mode is better heard in that front speaker .. greetings and luck!

Question [PSA] UV Tempered Glass that works with FP w/o the dot glue

The tile says it all.
This: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B09KC72DWF
Work with the FP scanner, without the dot glue and is tempered glass.
I f***up and even though I used the tape, got glue in my speakers. It was a pain in the @$$ to take out and I had to use a sewing needle once it cured. So be careful!
Otherwise, the install was easy.
Also, "Currently unavailable" unfortunately. But thank you.

What do you mean by "dot glue"?

Some glass protectors have a spot where the fingerprint reader is located to improve responsiveness, so the rest of the protector is "floating" over the screen, but at that position, it sticks. It may work, but it's ugly as f*** and completely breaks the apparel of the phone. I guess for what he describes this one comes with the LOCA bottle you have to pour over the screen and then cure with the UV light.

Oh I've seen those but they where mostly made to deal with the issue of ultrasonic fp sensors. Didn't know they made them for optical sensors, I guess trying to help with the P6 sub par sensor. And yeah they look ugly af

For what it's worth, my P6P in-screen optical fingerprint reader works perfectly for me, and my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+'s in-screen ultrasonic fingerprint reader was pretty terrible.
Honestly, I've not had any issue with the FP reader, coming from a OnePlus 7 Pro I feel it even quicker than there, so I don't quite get all the hassle.
BTW, reading the good comments from the Mocolo glass protectors I just ordered one, let´s see when I apply it if the FP reader keeps working as intended.

This is correct.
My FP scanner works amazing well. Way better than the OP 7 Pro on my parent's phone.
This screen protector was worth the hassle it took to install.

I tried the UV glue glass. And glue went in to my speaker too, then the volume of my upper speaker become very low. When I make phone calls I cannot hear anything. I tried all the method but cannot sovle it. So I have no way but to disamble the screen and clean inside. Now it's better but I can tell it's not like before. I guess there are still some UV glue block the outlet of upper speaker. I figure out if you want to disamble the upper speaker and clean the outlet you need to remove the battery and main board first, which is not easy so I gave up.
Btw I did tape the speaker but UV glue went in. And I also find out once glue flow in to gap between screen and frame , after you UV light it , it get hard and swollen which will make the gap larger.
Although tempered glass feels really good and has no impact on FP sensor, I just went back to film screen protector after this terrible experience

Youve got to be very,very careful with the UV glue and use a good strong tape to cover all the openings. I runied my Oneplus 8 Pro because of the glue but my P6P install was good.
Yes. The tempered glass protector I have only leave me with around 1 mm between the glass edge and the upper speaker slot. So it's impossible for me the apply a tape cover the speaker effectively.

I used a sewing needle to get under the glue and pull it out. Don't worry, the speaker gills are kinda deep. That said, be careful and don't just ignore that's the speaker is there lol.
