(New) iPhone 15 Microphone Installation

Use tweezers or your fingers to remove the old adhesive from the bottom of the frame.

If there's adhesive residue on the frame, use high concentration isopropyl alcohol (greater than 90%) and a coffee filter or lint-free cloth to clean it.

While holding the microphone adhesive with one hand, use your fingers or a pair of tweezers to remove the white liner from the adhesive.

Hold the microphone so the metal side is facing up.

Apply the adhesive to the microphone with the pull tab pointing up.

Remove the blue liner from the microphone adhesive.

Insert the microphone at a downward angle so the adhesive adheres firmly to the frame around the sound channel.

Press the microphone firmly into place.

Use a tri-point Y000 driver to install the 1.3 mm screw securing the grounding clip and microphone.

Use a Phillips #000 driver to install the 1.3 mm screw securing the bottom right of the microphone.

Use a standoff driver to install the two 3 mm standoff screws securing top of the microphone.

Use the flat end of a spudger or your finger to connect the microphone press connector.
