Don't try to open your OPX!!

Hey guys,

The detailed problem:
I've worked for 2 months into a factory that had crazy amounts of dust and metal residue in the air. Since then i had 2 problems with my phone, both self inflicted by the workplace:
1. my earpiece got killed (compressed air)
2. my mic got suuuuper quiet, the other party could only hear me (badly) if i spoke really loud, or shouted. Also my speaker got quieter.

So in regards of these 2 problems, i had a buddy of mine (who has a phone repair service) to take a look inside. I bought a earpiece speaker for oneplus 2, but it didnt match. the one that matched was from a nokia lumia 930-925 (something like that). I had a hard time getting out the battery, and when the microphone got cleaned, it shed of a large amount of metal residue, the speaker too had a less amount of residue. The problems came when they needed to put the whole phone back. The back cover is THE WHOLE PHONE is made out of rubbish materials (i still love this phone to pieces , and the money value is superb) and the back cover had some "minor" problems when glued back, the rim (which is made out of thin rubber) that holds the back glass cover , got ****ed up, and the glue didn't do its best job, so in a corner the glass got cracked. Also because of the glue and the rim inside the phone the plastic cover is now standing loose.

tl;dr the phone materials are rubbish, back cover got a little cracked in a corner after repairing microphone and earpiece.

All in all i still love the phone, and its a great value for money, but when it comes to repairing...just dont...try to give it back to oneplus to repair it and dont accept bull**** if it comes back looking bad.
