Hello guys, let me explain you what is going on. You all know, when you play a voice note/audio on whatsapp you will listen the audio coming from the loudspeaker, but when you put your phone on your ear you would listen the audio coming from the earpiece speaker. The thing is, yesterday I replaced the LCD because the outter glass was broken; now the audio from whatsapp is always playing out from the loudspeaker, even when I put it close to my ear. What can I do? I re-opened it and all the cables are connected. Thanks. -C
Carlos, Did you do a “small parts comes on the screen assembly” or did you transfer everything over from the broken part? If you transferred everything over from your old screen you may have not got the little gold tabs on the prox flex aligned with the spring connections on the ear speaker. The metal cover that covers the ear speaker could also be screwed tighter than needs to be or loose. Also, during transfer the prox/front facing camera flex may have been torn or damaged in some way. Inspect it or replace it. Check the connectors on the prox flex and logic board to see if any damage has occurred, the connections are easy to smash down when reconnecting.
I believe your problem is simply your proximity sensor is not aligned properly with the hole on the LCD panel. ;d It is annoying to align it, I didn’t really bother, thus my iPhone’s screen doesn’t turn black when I raise it to my face during a call. ;d
