What to do if I lost the bracket? Without it, the screw really has no purpose, as the left side of the speaker enclosure assembly just slides up past it and the wifi grounding fingers slide up from under the lip.

I could not see it and flipping over the phone, or what’s left of it, it dropped. Where to put it back though ?

Remove the speaker enclosure assembly from the iPhone.
Before reinstalling the speaker enclosure assembly's screws, be sure the Wi-Fi grounding fingers are installed below the lip in the iPhone's metal case as seen in the second picture.
Before reassembly, be sure to clean all metal-to-metal contact points between the grounding fingers of the Wi-Fi antenna and the case of the iPhone with a de-greaser such as windex or isopropyl alcohol. The oils on your fingers have the potential to cause wireless interference issues.

Careful not to lose the tiny rubber spacer that sits below the mic enclosure - I nearly did as it is not mentioned here, probably because it rarely comes out. See mention and photo of this in this guide, step 20: Dock Connector Replacement

I had some problems with the cellular cable during re-installation. It actually had gotten scratched to where the wire was actually worn and the silver cable was visible. I discovered this once it was all closed and the phone's cellular status was always "Searching...". A little bit of electrical tape over the exposed area seemed to take care of this.

Successfully reinstalled the display, but now the lower speaker doesn't work. I'll have to reopen it to find out what's up. So many possibilities for error.

I "lost" one of the screws securing the speaker, but re-assembled it anyway without the RH screw. Everything worked; then I realised where it might have gone. The speaker has a magnet which will attract any loose screws nearby. Sure enough, that's where I found it when I opened it up again.

I was trying to get the little triangle spacer in place to get the speakers installed. I had it in some tweezers trying to see what I was doing wearing some magnifying goggles, when the spacer shot out like a watermelon seed from between your fingers....Never got a clear view of where i went but it looked like it went sailing over into a part of the room where there is loads of little small bits+pieces in loads of other bigger boxes and containers...it sailed off into the land of the lost. I'd be lucky to happen to see the little booger during spring cleaning...I won't hold my breath. Anybody know where i can buy such a thing?

edit- I made a replacement out of some scrap plastic . Doesn't look too bad. Not sure about thickness. So I'm just gonna put everything back together and hope for the best.

buy a equal phone that is perhaps destroyed AND locked . that is how I have replaced many parts I have done what you have done . I now have parts I may never use but ... who knows I just aim for the phones I have extra parts for

As ++hutchwilco++ mentioned don’t forget to put back the rubber spacer on the bottom right side of the speaker (as seen on picture from step 29). Comes on the bottom of it, between metal bezel and speaker.It is a marking on the speaker.

I’ve seen mine and I have struggled to find it’s place.
