Earpiece speaker distorted? Read here for the fix!

Well, that's certainly almost an even easier solution still! Good find! I hope all that sucking/phone love didn't hurt your loudspeakers.... Maybe they got jealous and wanted attention? ;-)

now i have problem with loudspeakers...same method does not work, so i am thinking to take it to nokia...

does anybody have the same problem (noise) with n95s loudspeakers?

This is brilliant! I have been looking for a fix for this for a while and was dreading taking it to a repair centre to wait for hours or days for a fix.

I didn't really want to start taking pins or screwdrivers to it either. Then one simple "Suck" and its fixed. You can hear the little "diaphragm" clicking when you suck and suppose it just reseats it. Now crystal clear calling again!

Brilliant!

Maybe I should edit my original post and say to people to read this entire thread before pulling out the T6.... Yeah, I will do that.

I got some debris from my pocket or of coffee from being on the kitchen worktop.

Tried the suck thing with my mouth (Oh Matron!) didn't quite cut it. Cout still hear a sick speaker, and slight rattle.

So when doing the hoovering today, I took metal pipe off, and ran the hand section (without ANY attachments) over the ear piece a few times and things were back to normal.

Can definitely confirm sucking works!

Phew, no trip to the NSC!

I actually bought a new front cover, to repair damage from the one and only time I dropped my N95. The front cover came with a new earpiece speaker, so I thought I would see how long it lasted. About 6 weeks, then the same thing happened all over again. Grr. But, a quick 'suck' sorted me out. Well, no surprises there... ;-)

Another thanks to the OP.

Mine started playing up at the weekend. I was all set to have the thing apart but, read salada2k's thread. Tried the simplest method (blowing in the earpiece) and to my surprise, it's worked a charm.

Cheers bud !

Make sure you are covering the hole with your mouth as best as possible, then actually try 'sucking' rather than blowing...

Give it a few tries and it will work, promise!

while talking on the phone whenever i talk too loud or shout, there is a distorted sound coming from the earphone. Does this solve it??
