iPhone X Earpiece Speaker Replacement Without Losing Face ID
简介
转到步骤 1Use this guide to replace the earpiece speaker without losing Face ID.
The earpiece speaker is only connected to the front sensor array by two solder points, so while this procedure does require a minimum amount of soldering, it is relatively easy to do and will allow you to keep the existing front sensor array and not affect the phone's ability to use Face ID.
In fact, you don't even have to remove the front sensor array to do this repair, making it actually easier than the full iPhone X Earpiece Speaker and Front Sensor Assembly Replacement guide.
This guide was inspired by a YouTube video by Tech MD Youtube who figured out how to do this procedure.

Can Face ID be repaired again after damaged when repairing speaker
I can't give you a definitive answer because it depends on the kind of damage, but there is a chance it could be repaired. However, those kind of repairs require quite specialized microsoldering expertise that not all repair shops are capable of. Some repairs can be done by moving components from one flex cable to a new one, or in some cases the flex can be repaired if that's what's wrong.
If you're unable to locate a shop that has the expertise to do that kind of repair, then the only other choice you have would be to pay Apple to replace the screen. Their replacements come with the earpiece speaker assembly, and when they do the work they'll pair it to your phone so Face ID will work again. Some people can use the Apple self repair program, but unfortunately the iPhone 12 is the oldest phone they support with the program so that won't work for you.
