What this fixes

What a speaker & microphone repair actually fixes.

  • Callers cannot hear youThe microphone rather than the speaker. There are several in the phone and it is worth knowing which.
  • Music and video are quiet or cracklingThe loudspeaker at the bottom of the phone, and often just packed with pocket lint.
  • Sound only works on speakerphoneNarrows it to the earpiece rather than the loudspeaker.
  • Sound only works on speakerphoneThat points at the earpiece rather than anything upstream, and it saves a diagnostic.
  • Crackling at high volume onlyA damaged driver. It usually gets worse and it does not recover.
  • Sound cuts out when the phone is squeezedA connector rather than the speaker. Worth opening and checking before ordering a part.
Before you spend anything

Is it definitely the speaker?

Half the phones that arrive here with no sound have nothing wrong with the speaker.

IfIt is quiet rather than silent
Look at the speaker grille in a good light. Compacted lint and dust muffle a loudspeaker very effectively and a careful clean is often the whole repair.
IfCallers cannot hear you but voice notes record fine
Different microphones. That tells us which one to look at and makes it a smaller job.
IfIt has been silent since a screen repair somewhere else
The earpiece sits in the display assembly and is easy to disturb. Bring it in.
IfIt stopped after the phone got wet
Assess the liquid damage first. A new speaker in a corroding phone is money wasted.
IfSound works on Bluetooth and headphones but not the speaker
Confirms the speaker rather than the board, which is the cheaper of the two.

If you are not sure which of these you have, that is what the free diagnostic is for. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

What parts do we fit?

Genuine Apple service parts where they exist for the component, and premium aftermarket where they do not. You are told which one your repair uses before you agree to it, and the 360-day warranty is the same either way.

We will not describe a part as genuine, original or Apple certified unless that is what is going into your phone. If the honest answer is premium aftermarket, that is what we say at the counter.

    Genuine, OEM and aftermarket: what the words actually mean

    What the €115 includes

    • The speaker or microphone replaced, or cleaned where that is enough
    • Every audio path tested, not only the one that failed
    • A real call made before the phone goes back
    • 360-day warranty on the part and the workmanship

    Nothing extra gets done and charged for without you saying yes to it. Where the diagnostic turns up a second fault, the work stops there and you hear the price before it goes any further.

    A collection and return across Dublin can be added when you book. The repair price and the warranty are the same either way.

    Choose the part

    Two tiers, named before you agree.

    Speakers and microphones are small parts and the tier gap on them is the smallest on this list.

    iMEND Premium

    Original or manufacturer-grade part

    The manufacturer's own driver. Worth specifying on a phone you intend to keep a long time.

    Priced at the counter

    Value Edition

    Premium aftermarket, tested to the same standard

    Made to the original specification. On a speaker this is hard to fault and it is what most of these repairs use.

    Priced at the counter

    The €115 on this page is our standard quote for this repair. Which tier suits your device is a conversation at the counter, and the price for each is on the table before you decide. The 360-day warranty is the same on both, because we would not offer a tier we did not think would last.

    Before any of this, let us look at the grille. Compacted pocket lint muffles a loudspeaker very effectively, and where a clean fixes it that is what you pay for and no part goes in at all.

    The parts we use, in full

    How we do it

    From the counter to back in your hand.

    Tell us what it is doing

    Book online in about two minutes, or walk in without an appointment. Describe the symptom rather than the repair, it is more useful to us.

    Free diagnostic

    We confirm what has actually failed before anything is ordered or opened. It costs nothing and it is the step that stops people paying for the wrong repair.

    You approve the price

    You hear the number first. If it is not worth it to you, that is a perfectly good answer and it costs you nothing.

    The repair is carried out

    Carried out here in Drumcondra rather than sent away, by people who do this repair daily.

    Bench testing

    We test what we replaced and everything that sits beside it, because that is where a rushed repair shows up.

    Back in your hands

    Pick it up from Richmond Road or have it couriered back across Dublin. Either way it carries the 360-day warranty.

    Before it goes back

    What we test every time.

    A repair is not finished when the part is fitted. It is finished when the things around it have been checked.

    A real phone call

    Both directions. It is the only test that proves the earpiece and the call microphone together.

    Loudspeaker at volume

    Held at full, because a failing driver sounds fine quietly and buzzes when pushed.

    Every microphone

    Call, voice memo and video are different microphones and a phone can fail one and pass the rest.

    Proximity

    Checked at the same time, since it sits beside the earpiece and gets disturbed with it.

    Is anything on the device at risk?

    We are replacing a part, not reading a phone. Your photos, messages and accounts are not something this job touches.

    The one place it comes up is testing. A repair is not finished until it has been used, and using a locked device means a passcode. You are welcome to withhold it, and we will tell you which checks that leaves undone rather than quietly skipping them. A passcode you do give us lives on a paper docket that gets shredded, never in a database.

    Back it up first if you can. A device that has taken a knock has had its storage shaken whether or not anything looks wrong, and a backup is free insurance against the day that matters.

    Is it still water resistant afterwards?

    Treat the device as no longer water resistant after any repair, including this one.

    An IP rating is measured on a brand new, factory sealed device in a laboratory. It is a description of how that device left the factory, not a property it keeps. Heat, age and everyday knocks degrade the seal long before anybody opens it, which is why phones that have never been repaired still let water in.

    Opening a device means cutting through adhesive. We refit with fresh adhesive, which gives you back a physical seal that keeps rain and splashes out. What we will not do is claim the original rating is restored, because there is no way for us or for any independent shop in Ireland to test that.

    If the device lives near water, tell us when you book. It changes what we recommend and it is a two minute conversation rather than a surprise afterwards.

    The 360-day warranty

    Every completed repair is covered for 360 days on the part and the workmanship. If the display we fitted fails, or the fitting was at fault, we put it right at no charge.

    What it does not cover is a new accident. A phone dropped again after the repair, fresh physical damage, liquid damage, or a fault in a part we did not touch, all sit outside it. That is the same limit any honest repair warranty has.

    No fix, no fee. The diagnostic is free, and if the repair does not happen you pay nothing.

    Three ways to get it to us

    • Walk in to Drumcondra4 Richmond Road, Dublin 3. No appointment. Mon to Sat 10:00 to 18:00, closed Sunday. Most phone screens and batteries done in 15 to 45 minutes while you wait.
    • We collect and returnDoor to door across Dublin, Monday to Friday, usually 2 to 4 working days. The repair takes the same time; the courier is the difference.
    • Send it in yourselfPost it to the shop with a tracked, insured service and a note with your number. We cannot cover a parcel in transit, and that is the honest trade-off for the route existing.

    Same repair price and the same 360-day warranty on all three. The only thing that changes is how the device travels.

    Asked all the time

    iPhone 12 Pro screen questions.

    €115, including the part, the fitting, the testing and the 360-day warranty. VAT is included. You get that figure confirmed before anything is opened, and if we cannot repair the phone you pay nothing.

    Usually same day. If the diagnostic turns up something else, or a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you commit rather than after.

    Very often, yes. The loudspeaker grille packs with pocket lint and it muffles sound long before it silences it. We clean and test before quoting a replacement, and where the clean fixes it that is what you pay for.

    There is more than one microphone in the phone and they are used for different things. That symptom usually points at the call microphone specifically, which is a smaller job than it sounds.

    Sometimes, because on most models the earpiece is part of the display assembly. Tell us what the sound is doing when you book and we will check both together rather than doing one and finding the other.

    Sometimes, because on most phones the earpiece is part of the display assembly. Tell us what the sound is doing when you book so we check both.

    A speaker or microphone is one of the cheaper parts in a phone, so usually yes.

    iMEND is an independent repair service. Brand and model names are used only to describe the devices we repair. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by or an authorised service provider for any manufacturer.

    Parts that last

    Genuine or OEM-grade components chosen for your model. We tell you which is going in before we start.

    Your data stays yours

    Hardware-only repairs. We never read, copy or move anything on your device.

    No fix, no fee

    If we cannot repair it, there is nothing to pay. No diagnostic fee, no handling charge.

    The screen stopped working on my iPhone 13 mini - it had recently been repaired elsewhere. I got a warm welcome in the shop, and a phone to borrow while mine was in for diagnostics and repair. An issue with the battery was also detected and I am very happy with the new screen and battery and appreciated the excellent service and communication.
