    I can't hear calls on my iphone all I can hear is scrambled jibbirish. I have replaced the ear piece speaker with no success . I then took the mother board and put it in another iphones housing that I knew both mic/ speakers worked 100 %. This worked for first call but then stared getting scrambled again. I have come to conclusion it has to be problem with the mothers board. Looked online it's an audio compiler chip seems to be causing the problem.
    Just wondering has anyone ever attempted this repair or could advise me where to get this problem fixed?

    Never had that issue with a 4s but have on a 4. A reflow is nesassary on the chip, usually I put a small piece of plastic against the chip between the metal cover afterward to ensure it doesn't come loose again
