Argh, it's a shame that contact broke off.

I can sympathise with you about the lack of info on the receiver speaker, as you say loads of people seem to have problems with the loudspeaker, which also happens to be an easy fix because you can get to it without taking thw whole damn phone apart.

My receiver stopped working entirely (no sound at all) and i didn't want to wait weeks for Jolla to repair it even though it was under warranty, so I opened it up and had a look.

I disassembled until I could see the speaker like in your photos, and then bent the two contacts up. One side of each contact is actually a little hook, I found that it popped out when I pulled up on it. I wasn't sure if that was going to be a problem (only being attached to the receiver on one side of each contact) but actually it was fine. Reassembled and the receiver started working properly again.

Did the tight screw have blue stuff on the thread? I think that's adhesive called loctite to prevent the screw from working loose during use.
