Sooo, to replace the earpiece assembly, you have to bust your screen?

David - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

Did you use the miniature hammer for that step David?

Jasen Putney -

Where can I purchase a headphone jack to replace my defective one?

jimhyunglee - crwdns2934203:0crwdne2934203:0

Installed everything correctly. Ear piece works fine, however my headphone jack (which was the faulty component in the first place) does not work at all. The phone does not even detect when I have a pair of earbuds plugged in. I replaced this piece due to heavy static out of the headphone jack.
