Hi guys,
I managed to kill my t610 a few months back by taking it apart a bit to often... now i have another one, which is also broken and it seems to have the same problem... ive also managed to brake some spare pieces on the way
The problem is the following:
The mic doesnt work!!! neither for voice recordings, or conversation, instead it just makes a crackling noise.. could anyone tell me what exact part i would have to operate on (change, clean,etc)??
thanks for your help

Heres a pic so if you could download, mark the affected area, and upload it again, i would be grateful!! (looking at the photos it looks as if i have parkinsons disease!!)

Beneath the keypad, next to connectors, there must be a small slit.

There should be a lightning symbol near the slit. (Not sure of t610, but my K500i and t230 has it.)

Is there a slit near that? (Lightning is for charger) the mic is situated inside that slot. Probably loose connection.

Sorry dude, cant see images. I think it is button shaped. Change the button with t230. It should fit. Btw, have you used a headset? Can you talk then?

Did you try using a headset? If it works, ok. Else, your mic is ok and something else kaput.

I have just done the same thing by changing the covers on my wifes new T610.
I can receive calls and hear fine but my mic isnt working. I have tried my bluetooth headset and everything works well. does any one know of any diagrams or instructions I could follow to try and re-install the mic properly.

i think my t610 could be considered dead at this stage...any kind and generous person willing to fix it for me (at the modest price of...free?)
