Can anybody help with how you replace the speaker grills? As it is not included in the replacement assembly screens?
I believe they are underneath the 'housing frame' which is the piece of plastic around the edge of the glass.
Hi just take them off with tweezers
Can anyone tell by looking at the board if the X Pure has a FM chip that is wired? Currently all anyone is saying on forums is that the phone isn't FM enabled (which could only mean it isn't turned on), not that is is missing the chip or that the chip hasn't been wired to allow the FM to be enabled.
Does anybody know what lengths the 21 screws are?
