For anyone doing this on an Xperia M2 Aqua: BE VERY CAREFUL! There’s strong adhesive foam around the microphone (which points forwards and sits under the screen on the Aqua, unlike the regular M2 where it points downwards). Try your best to detach the loudspeaker module from the mic/vibra/antenna PCB first, then very, VERY carefully pry under the PCB with a plastic tool in order to release the adhesive. If you try to remove the whole assembly by lifting from a corner and pulling it sideways, you WILL break the main microphone. Why they’d put such a delicate component in an accident-prone spot is beyond me. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not an expensive fix, but the inconvenience will get on your nerves haha.
