Trying To Fix The Speaker On This Motorola Rokr E1...And Failing lol

In this video I attempt to repair a broken Motorola Rokr E1. The speaker on this e1 makes a crackling and static sound when it plays music. The Motorola Rokr E1 was launched in 2005 as a collaboration between Motorola and Apple and is a small candybar style phone that can could use iTunes 2 years before the iPhone 2G or Original Gen 1 iPhone, hence its nickname, The Motorola iTunes phone or the Motorola iPhone for that matter. I found this rokr e1 off the fb market place for a mere $15 alongside 2 Motorola V300's. The Rokr E1 is a rare collectors item and a highly sought after collectors phone and goes for really high prices online so getting one for $15 is a huge steal. This one is also the rarer made in Singapore variant with the Motorola logo instead of the Cingular Wireless logo. I will be doing the usual full retro style review and using the Motorola rokr e1 in 2022 or Motorola Rokr E1 2022 so stay tuned!
These are considered rare phones or collectible phones and I am keeping them in my phone collection since they are considered as a vintage phones or retro phones.
My collection also includes Nokia Prototypes, Blackberry Prototypes, Motorola Prototypes, Sony Ericsson prototypes, Sony Prototypes, HTC Prototypes, Rare Nokia and other rare developer devices! These phones are no Android 11 or Android 12 powerhouses and It also ain't no iPhone 13 Pro Max, Google Pixel 6, Lumia 950Xl, Lumia 1520, Lumia 1020, Google Pixel 6 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, Motorola Edge S or OnePlus 8T but are definitely interesting phones on their own!
So, lets try and repair this Motorola Rokr E1 here in 2022!

lovely content. your channel is way too underrated

[@Techformative557]

glad you love the content!

[@brucefi6140]

It's probably a current leak or a faulty component.

[@Techformative557]

probably..not something I can diagnose without better tools

[@damienlobb85]

That's not a speaker issue. It sounds like an issue with the amplifier that drives the speakers...

[@aleksabalos6969]

There's something wrong with the motherboard obviously

[@Techformative557]

yeah..its definitely one if the resistors I showed..maybe someday we will revisit this when I have a better multimeter and reflow station
