    • Remove the six screws securing the earpiece speaker:

    • One 2.4 mm‑long Phillips screw

    • Three 1.3 mm‑long Phillips screws

    • One 1.6 mm‑long Phillips screw

    • One 3.3 mm‑long standoff screw

    • Standoff screws are best removed using a dedicated standoff driver or driver bit. In a pinch, a small flathead screwdriver will do the job—but use extra caution to ensure it doesn't slip and damage surrounding components.

    • Use tweezers to lift and remove the earpiece speaker.

    • You may feel some resistance near the top edge, where the speaker gasket seals against the frame. Pull the speaker out gently to release the seal.
