Broken mute switch

我的问题

The silver piece broke of the mute switch rendering it useless and the phone can't be switched to vibrate.

我的修理方法

Repair took about an hour. I went slowly and steadily through the teardown.

我的建议

PERFECT! Take your time and be methodical and it is pretty straight forward to get as deep as you want into the iPhone internals. This repair requires the removal of a fair bit of the internals to properly reach and remove the switch.
