    Recently I suffered the dreaded crackling earpiece the Z10 has been plagued with. I was mulling over the idea of purchasing a new one or just upgrading (purchasing our right) to a Z30. It dawned on me, "why not get it fixed?" So that's what I looked into..

    I'm a pretty early riser. Up at 4am. At work by 6:30 or so. I take the train... It sounds worse than it is.
    I starred scouring through Smartphone repair madness. Kijiji. I found a few potential candidates where I could drop off my phone and pick it up ranging in any where from 30 minutes to an hour. Sounds pretty good. The prices was where I having a hard time. The shops that would do the repair in under an hour charged $79+ tax.

    I kept search.

    I came across one ad. Didn't have any prices listed only two phone numbers and blackberry repairs in the ad. I called and left a message. Was called back pretty quickly too.

    So to make a long story short. This guy fixed my phone in ten minutes and didn't make sell any organs to get it done.
    Ear piece replacement  done in 10 minutes.-img_20140509_231443.jpg

    Yeah. Technically, the guy saved me $499 + tax. I would have just bought a factory unlocked Z30 from shop blackberry. So. Turned out pretty good.

    Just like every other ear piece forum post, and Crackberry Kevin's brothers. My ear piece speaker too had become victim to metal fragments / particles. They made the ear piece distorted, thus my phone calls were only coherent if on speaker phone or with a headset.

    He swapped out the affected ear piece speaker with a new one. Even gave me the old one back. Yeah it was a simple fix. But by Zeus if it wasn't!!!
