J1 failing speakers
My Jolla 1 seems to have gone numb.:(
No incoming call alerts, and even worrying, no wake up alarms. It went shortly silent in the middle of some music playback, came back for a minute, and then silent since. I guess this is sadly some hw related issue, still, Any ideas how to check if there is some sw related cause? |
Re: J1 failing speakers
It is a hardware-related issue as the contact pins of the speaker got weak contact to the board. But it is easy to fix if you have a Torx screw driver.
Open the case in the lower part, locate the speaker block and carefully bend the contact pins upwards a fraction of a mm. Don't overdo it, though. After that the speaker should work like new again. |

Thanks, it worked.
I never disassembled my Jolla before, so I had a bit trouble in removing the upper part of the frame. Some hints for others:

Re: J1 failing speakers
If you have any sound issues with Jolla 1, while you are at it, replace original speakers with those suggested here: https://together.jolla.com/question/...comment=145763
I used the suggested Nokia Lumia 720 earpiece and HTC One X (S720e/G23) speaker (not earpiece). It was worth the upgrade, because with the original part, there was a crackling sound in the earpiece at loud volumes. It went away completely, and the loudspeaker sounds better, too. This was 1,5 years ago, still works fine. |
Re: J1 failing speakers
So after half a year of working unproblematic, loudspeaker contact problem is back again. I'll probably have to buy a torx set as my colleague who borowed last time moved abroad.
