Galaxy S22 Ultra - Replacing the speaker

Use our checklist to test the basic functions of your Galaxy S22 Ultra 5G before repairing. This way you can check afterwards if your repair was successful.

1. Press and hold the side and volume down button simultaneously for a few seconds.
2. Tap on Power off in the displayed menu.

1. Heat the edge of the back cover by running the hot air device evenly over it.

As an alternative to the suction cup, we can recommend the iSclack, which requires less force to lift up the back cover.

The iFlex can be inserted particularly well between the back cover and the screen unit due to its sharp edges.

1. Attach a suction cup to the lower edge of the back cover and pull it upwards to create a narrow gap.
2. At the same time, insert a flat tool into the gap between the back cover and the screen unit.

To avoid damaging the camera module, you should not insert your tool too far. At this point, the hard plastic pick is therefore particularly suitable.

In order to prevent the glue of the back cover from bonding again, we recommend sliding flat plastic picks under the back cover at regular intervals.

1. Drive your tool completely around the edge of the back cover to loosen it piece by piece.
2. Put the detached back cover aside.

• Connector

The lower end of the charging coil is glued. The upper end is a metal cover that is screwed onto the motherboard. On that cover the NFC antenna is integrated as well.

1. Carefully separate the connectors of charging coil and NFC antenna from the board with a spudger.

• 5 × 3.3 mm Phillips

We recommend using a screw storage, such as our magnetic pad, to keep all disassembled parts and screws safe and organized.

1. Loosen the five Phillips screws that fix the metal cover on the board.
2. Flip the detached cover upwards and pull the lower, glued end of the charging coil off the speaker.

• Connector

To avoid a potential short circuit during the repair, you should always disconnect the battery as soon as possible.

1. Carefully detach the orange battery connector with a spudger from the motherboard.

• 6 × 3.3. mm Phillips

A small arrow as well as a notch on the component show you where you can best place your tool.

1. Loosen the six Phillips screws that hold the speaker in place.
2. Carefully lever the speaker out of its guide with a spudger and set it aside.

• 6 × 3.3 mm Phillips

Make sure that the speaker sits level all over. Its plastic lugs must fit into the edge of the case.

1. Put the new speaker in the screen unit.
2. Screw it in place with the six Phillips screws.

• Connector

Always connect the battery as late as possible to avoid a potential short circuit.

1. Reconnect the battery by gently pressing its connector onto the motherboard.

• 5 × 3.3 mm Phillips

1. Align the charging coil over the motherboard again, according to the screw holes in the metal cover.
2. Press its glued end tightly.
3. Screw the cover in place with the five Phillips screws.

• Connector

1. Reconnect the NFC antenna and charging coil by gently pressing their connectors onto the motherboard.

We recommend testing the new camera lens and other basic functions at this point. Again, use our checklist for this and the internal Samsung test menu, which you call up via the code *#0*#.

If something doesn't work properly during testing, double-check that everything is installed and attached correctly.

1. Switch on your Galaxy again.
2. Open the camera app and change the mode to check the functionality of each lens.

If the adhesive frame is still in good condition, you do not need to install a new one. However, if it has defects or no longer sticks properly, we recommend that you use a new adhesive frame.

1. Align the new adhesive frame with the back cover. The cutouts in the film will help you.
2. Peel off the carrier film from the bottom of the adhesive frame and press it onto the edge of the back cover.
3. Now carefully peel off the remaining protective film from the top of the adhesive frame.

We recommend that you run hot air over the edge of the back cover again, so that the glue bonds properly. You can also weigh down your device with books for a few minutes.

1. Close your Galaxy S22 Ultra after the repair by pressing the back cover back onto the screen unit.
