Replaced Dock and now microphone no longer working
So I had a sound problem with my iPhone 4s. So I ordered a replacement dock connector after doing much research. I carefully followed the guide for tear down and once again to put it all back together.
Powered up my phone and voila! It was repaired. Sound from my speakers again. Or so I thought, until a day or two later when I was trying to make a call, I could clearly hear the other person, but they couldn't hear me. At first I thought it was the other person, but after more in depth testing, I realised it was at my end.
So it appears that my mic no longer works. I took my phone apart 2 additional times to check my connections, rubber boot placement over the mic, made sure the rubber boot was clear of any debris as well as the mesh. My mic still doesn't work. I'm wondering if I got a defective part? Seeing my mic worked fine before the repair, and now it doesn't.
So the repair fixed one problem but caused me another. I can make calls with the speakerphone function, but that isn't always convenient in some locations.
I couldn't tell if there was any plastic that should be removed from the front of the mic unit, but I don't think there is after close inspection.
Really hoping someone has some good input on this matter that can help me resolve this.
