So have I drilled the hole for no reason, why have a video showing you what to do when they didn't check first, and how does he hear the music?

b4 you drill a hole in a 1000 quid phone its best to check first as why do you think they removed it in the first place.

so you go buy the wireless headphones at a rip off price.

In place of the headphone jack, we find a component that seems to channel sound from outside the phone into the microphone... or from the Taptic Engine out.



  • No fancy electronics here, just some well-designed acoustics and molded plastic.



  • Teardown Update: According to Apple, this plastic component is a barometric vent. With the added ingress protection afforded by the watertight seal, the iPhone uses this baffle to equalize the internal and atmospheric pressures in order to have an accurate altimeter.
so you broke that ;)

there is no head phone jack output inside and it is not water proof.

It's definitely there, you must've drilled in the wrong place.

Thanks to the internet I have the precise GPS coordinates of the infamous pot of gold (over the rainbow just isn't precise enough dudes!). Also, several young and pretty foreign ladies are persuing me with romantic intention.

The internet is never wrong.

Apple store said 7 weeks waiting list for the iPhone 7 Plus, screen is dying, I washed my hole out with distilled water and it seems to be filling up the screen, I only have pudding rice so this might be my last post for 6 weeks :(

Damn, I drilled a hole in my Yamaha lcd display on my Haibike to fit my headphones! Stupid really. I didn't need to, I could of just bought those new £180 wireless Apple headphones.
