HTC HD2 Phone Speaker Replacement
Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 6 Steps
This step guides you to access the speaker, just in case it needs a swap. Keep going, and if things get tricky, remember you can always schedule a repair for extra help.
Step 1
– Gently lift the rear cover off the back of your phone. You’ve got this!
– Slide a finger under the tiny lip on the left side of the battery to get a good grip.
Step 2
– Gently lay the phone face down on a flat surface, screen side down.
– Carefully lift the edge and slide the battery out of the phone, giving it a friendly nudge.
Step 3
– Grab your T5 screwdriver and take out the four black 3.5mm screws on the back of your phone.
Step 4
The volume control tab might pop off during removal, but no worries—it’s easy to reattach. This step takes a bit of patience. Keep prying gently and steadily until the frame starts to come loose. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
– Wedge the flat end of your spudger into the gap between the midframe and the screen.
– Glide the spudger all the way around the edge where the frame meets the display.
– Gently pry the midframe away from the rest of the display using the spudger for a little extra oomph.
– Once it starts to pop free, pull the midframe off and set it aside.
