How to Use Samsung 'Clear Speaker' & Xiaomi Speaker Cleaner Setting
On Xiaomi/Redmi, go to Settings โ Additional Settings โ Clear Speaker. On Samsung Galaxy, run Device Diagnostics in Device Care or use our calibrated online 165Hz tool with bottom ports aimed downward.
On Xiaomi / Redmi / Poco Devices
Go to Settings โ Additional Settings โ 'Clear Speaker'. Toggle the switch ON. The phone will play a loud 30-second high-amplitude acoustic sweep.
On Samsung Galaxy Devices (One UI)
Go to Settings โ Battery and Device Care โ Diagnostics โ Phone Diagnostics โ Speaker Test, or use our 165Hz online tool which delivers higher acoustic displacement than default system tones.
Hold Phone Speaker Facing Downward
During audio playback, hold the device vertically with bottom speaker grilles aimed toward a clean paper towel.
Repeat 2 to 3 Cycles for Stubborn Blockages
Run the 30-second tone 2โ3 consecutive times for maximum moisture expulsion.
Eject Speaker Moisture While Drying
Run the acoustic cleaner tone to ensure internal speaker membranes do not retain moisture while drying.
Critical Precautions For This Issue
- โ Do NOT poke needles or paperclips into microphone or speaker pinholes (punctures internal waterproof acoustic mesh).
- โ Do NOT use compressed air cans close to the grille.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about acoustic water ejection and phone speaker maintenance.
How does this water eject sound actually work? +
When water enters a smartphone speaker grille, surface tension can trap liquid droplets across the fine mesh openings. Our tool plays a calibrated 165Hz tone with modulated pressure waves. This produces rapid vibrations designed to create localized air displacement and assist in forcing trapped moisture outward.
Does the water eject sound actually work? +
Yes, for liquid trapped on the outer speaker mesh and grille openings. The 165Hz tone causes the speaker cone to oscillate with rapid physical stroke excursion, generating air pressure pulses that help dislodge standing droplets. However, results vary based on liquid type (freshwater vs salt/soda) and exposure depth. It cannot fix internal electrical component damage if water breached deep motherboard circuits.
Will this sound damage my phone or earbuds speaker? +
No. The oscillator generates standard audio waveforms within safe consumer electronics frequency limits (20Hzโ20,000Hz), operating at normal playback output levels.
How many times should I run the cleaning cycle? +
We recommend running the 60-second cleaning cycle 2 to 3 times while keeping the speaker grille pointed downward toward a clean cloth. After each cycle, gently wipe the speaker ports, then test your audio clarity.
Can I use this on AirPods, Galaxy Buds, and Apple Watch? +
Yes. For AirPods and wireless earbuds, switch to the '๐ง Earbuds (850Hz)' mode, which is tuned for smaller micro-drivers. For Apple Watch or smartwatches, use the standard 165Hz mode.
Can I use uncooked rice to dry my phone speaker? +
No! Major phone manufacturers strongly advise against rice. Rice does not accelerate evaporation, and dry starch dust enters speaker ports and charging connectors, forming a cement-like crust that permanently mutes audio.
What if my speaker still sounds muffled after several cycles? +
If audio remains muffled, residual moisture may require more time to evaporate naturally, or dried mineral deposits may be obstructing the mesh. Prop your device upright in a well-ventilated room with cool airflow for 2โ4 hours. If distortion persists, contact an authorized repair provider.
Does this replace professional water damage repair? +
No. Acoustic ejection is an emergency first-aid step to assist in dislodging surface moisture from speaker openings. It cannot repair internal motherboard corrosion or replace damaged internal components. Results vary depending on device condition and liquid exposure.
