Very good video! In an effort to help the next person: Be aware, there are THREE microphones on the iPhone SE. The one shown in the video is the "main" microphone, but a failure of any of the three can cause very strange issues with siri, speakerphone, video audio, etc... To verify if/which microphone has failed, use the voice memo app to test the "main" microphone shown in this video. Use the "selfie" cam to take a video to test the front facing microphone hidden near the earpiece. Use the rear facing "normal" camera to take a video to test the microphone hidden between the camera itself and the flash LED. You're welcome.
I have a question: can I just take some parts from another iPhone SE that has its Apple ID (iCloud) logged in (I can’t just erase every data on that iPhone without a password) and put it on my own iPhone SE without a problem? Maybe it’s a silly security question but I’m hoping to make it works. Thank you so much, wonderful job
Hi is it the microphone where you make phone calls or for like face timing? If it’s for making phone calls it’s this one it’s located in the charging port flex cable. I believe the face timing microphone is located in the front camera flex cable assembly.
@@SmartEasyDIYer Thanks a lot! I just want to know where is placed mic used for video camera recording (in iphone SE 2016 gen).. Is this the same one that are using for a facetime calls?
Hey i never opened a phone before but my microphone is not working properly due to some reason.. would you suggest me performing this repair on my own? Since my phone is out of warranty?

Thanks for the tips to help others. I’ll pin your comment on top.
how can I swap the front facing mic?
I believe that should be front facing camera one. You’ll have to swap the whole assembly. There should be a video for that.
Is it safe to replace the main microphone from the display broken mobile ?
What if I lose the retainer clip on 7:56 is it ok if I don't have that thing in my iphone?

You’re welcome. Yes you should be able to swap out any parts without worrying about iCloud besides the motherboard.

You’re welcome. I’m not completely sure but I think that is the one.
Would it affect Touch ID
It shouldn’t

+parikshit sohani Yeah I think if you're careful it's worth a try since it's not under warranty anymore.

@@SmartEasyDIYer mind you, 3 of the last 7 screws were completely stuck so I drilled them out lol
Haha wow! I’m glad you got it tho
Can i use part of 5s
I think they are interchangeable for something like that but not completely sure. I would check with the seller of the part to be sure.
