Title
iBeats ControlTalk Repair Guide
Introduction
If you have Monster iBeats Headphones or iBeats Headphones with ControlTalk and you are experiencing defects in them particularly at headphones jack spot resulting broken music stream or kind of irritating noise intermittently apparent, you can fix it following this guide.
Or sometimes you hear the music and sometime you don't, it is sure that the headphones are defective majorly getting the wires broken either at jack spot or at the spot around ControlTalk or divider.
Or you see the wires off the shape or kind of gap just above the headphones jack spot or you can't answer the call or can't raise the volume neither can stop the music or start, then this guide may help you resolve the issue with your iBeats.
Before diving into this guide, make sure that you have checked your device with a usable another brink or kind of headphones for similar purpose which will help make sure that iBeats are faulty not the device itself.
This is my first guide I have been preparing in about 2 hrs so expect errors. But the process of this repair has been refined carefully. Your suggestion is highly appreciated. I'm a Mac technician and my own iBeats demonstrated defects hence I decided to correct it and thought it would be much helpful if I published a self-repair guide. Thanks to iFixit for providing a platform to share ideas.

Conclusion
Set the circuit board on its base securely. Put the middle tab of the ControlTalk on top of the base. Carefully place the top tab of the ControlTalk on top of the middle tab aligning properly. ControlTalk reassembled.
To reassemble the 3.5mm headphone jack, cut the colorful wires at 2cm, 3cm, 4cm and 5cm length, soldier it to the jack's 4 apparent spots. Insert the 3.5mm jack into the iBeats metal compartment firmly after securing it from short-circuit and then applying quick fixer solution. And finally, place the cable support tab (rubber) into the iBeats metal compartment firmly by spraying quick fixer on it.
