    • Remove the four small black screws that secure the back phone panel using the Phillips #00 screwdriver.

    • Complete removal of screws may not be necessary.

    • Carefully separate the front and back panels by gently prying them apart. Start at the bottom of the phone (near the AC charger input).

    • Volume control button will be unsecured and may fall out as soon as the panels are separated.

    • Gentle force may be required to separate the panels at the top latch.

    • There are two wires connecting the front and back panels. Be careful not to rip these wires out when separating the panels.

    • Using your nails, tweezers, or any precise grabbing tool, pinch the antenna wire connector (clear plastic plug) and pull gently. It should pop out rather easily.

    • Put aside the back panel. You will only be working with the front panel from here on.

    • Using a SL 1.5 flathead screwdriver (or any small prying tool), pry the speaker from the plastic front cover.

    • The earpiece speaker is magnetic so you can use a magnet to remove the earpiece speaker from the plastic front cover once loosened.

    • You can apply your own adhesive to secure your replaced speaker if desired during reassembly.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
