To free the tabs, they must be pushed toward the center of the device. When using the plastic opening tool to free the rear panel, be sure to work the tool at the location of these clips.
To help in visualization, the 9 clips boxed in red are located on the same side as the volume buttons.
Remove back cover by inserting a plastic opening tool along the edge of the device to release the clips.

Due to the fragile nature of electronic components, it is important to limit the amount of heat transferred from the soldering iron to the motherboard. A simple way to accomplish this is to pull the two wires with gentle continuous tension while the soldering iron heats up the connection.
The microphone is connected to the motherboard by a red and black wire.
Begin by heating up the two solder joints on the motherboard one at a time.
When the solder melts and the wire is free from the motherboard, immediately lift the solder tip off the connection to avoid damage.

手順10

Solder the replacement microphone to the same joints on the motherboard.
Solder the connection by momentarily placing the tip of the soldering iron against the connection, pressing solder into the connection (melting it), and quickly removing both the solder and the tip of the soldering iron from the connection. The solder should flow around the wire and motherboard for a successful connection.
The black wire must be soldered to the negative joint.
The red wire must be soldered to the positive joint.
The positive and negative signs are indicated on the motherboard as well as in the picture.
