My Solemate did not react to anything. On/Off, USB Cable plug in - there was no active LED or any other sign of life.
After a complete disassembly and a deep look inside for broken solderings or something else i unsolderd the +(red) cable from the rechargeable battery pack.
After soldering it back - the device was fine again.

First we have to pull of the bottom rubber profile. You can easy lift it by using your fingers.
-
under the rubber are allocated two Torx 6 Screws which hold the strap in place. Loosen them to remove the strap.
-
-
-
At the side of the removed strap the cover is fixed with an adhesive tape. Gently bend the plastic that the adhesive tape will loose.
-
at the upper side you have to loosen 2x3 plastic snaps. At the other side, where the button and usb port is allocated, a second adhesive tape holds the upper case.

-
Now you can see the Main PCB and the Battery.

Here i could fix my problem of the not reacting device. I unsolderd the thicker red cable of the battery for a few seconds and soldered it back. that caused a hard reset. If this was your problem too, you can mount everything back.

For removing the two grilles you have to loosen the four (2x2) black screws with a Torx 8 screwdriver at the top of the grilles. You have to pay attention to the two snaps in the middle of each grille.
-
Loosen the Main PCB by removing the four black screw of the PCB.
-
Battery - Gently lift the battery with a dull plastic part. The battery is put in place with an adhesive foil under it. Pay attention to not harm the battery or the cable routes under it.
-
Flat-Cable - the Flat Cable under the Battery is also hold in place with an adhesive tape and snap in at the bottom side of the PCB. Pay attention by lifting the PCB.

On the side of the "sub-woofer" you have to loosen 6 small srews with a Torx 6 screwdriver.
-
Now you can pull apart the two half sides of the housing. Suprise: The "Sub-woofer" is not active. It uses the volume movement of the other speakers. That's why the half sides are very well sealed to each other.

hi, i ‘ve some issue with the female usb, it dissasembly from the sound card, how i can fix it?
thanks for your tuto
My micro-usb was ripped from pcb with copper traces; I glued it back, scratched some solder mask to reveal copper traces, fluxed them and dragged solder from usb pins to traces. It’s so small I can’t really see which contacts are good, but… It does charge (for) now
[|i open mine n found something different]
There’s an identical cavity on the other side of the PCB, and another set of three contacts on the PCB on the other side marked + & -. I wonder if an original design called for 2 of these batteries? I wonder if one could wire up a second to those contacts and double the battery life?
Probably. Mine has a foam-padded nfc on that cavity, though I could fit a battery below the nfc board. Would have tried but don’t have extra battery handy.
My ripped micro-usb fix is so unstable that it might break any time anyway, so one battery will do
Would you inform me, where I can get the new battery?
I think my battery ver quick drained…so that I need to replace with the new one. But I can’t find this kind of battery…
Excellent guide but perhaps the following reset method will solve some Solemate problems without having to disassemble it.
My Solemate would not charge correctly. It started charging but prematurely stopped charging. To fully charge the battery I needed to charge it 10-20 times. The battery held it’s charge for several weeks once fully charged, so I did not suspect that the battery needed replacing. So I searched internet for a solution.
I found this interesting answer from Jabra Support on BestBuys website.
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/questions/j...
Basically it describes how to reset your Solemate.
I tried it and immediately after reenabling the voice prompt was the battery reported as full instead of low!
So it seems to have reset some threshold value in the charging logic!
Crossing my fingers that it will correctly charge in one go next time I need to charge!
Hope this can help someone else as well!
Hi, i have problem with my battery, and i tried to replace it with 18650 battery(3.7v) and it does not turn the speaker on, any idea why ? I just take red & black wire and connect to the 18650 battery..
When i switched on, led turn to blinking green and immediately goes red… any thoughts ?
Where can i buy the grey power button for the jabra solemate? As mine keeps shutting off and on frequently.
Please also name me the type of button it is.
Bravo pour le tuto, j'avais un problème de faux contact avec le bouton marche/arrêt ,je ne sous pas allé jusqu'au bout , mais cela m'a suffit pour faire un bon dépoussiérage, et pouvoir mettre un nettoyant contact. C'est reparti pour un tour! Merci.
