5s screen cracked. Receiver speaker worked but when replaced screen the receiver speaker wasn't coming through very good. Replaced receiver speaker and still bad quality. All connects are tight and opened it a few times. Where might the prob be?

Question

Pretty much what I wrote.  I didn't damage anything and all of the connections look good but the speaker isn't coming through very good.  I tried to mash the receiver speaker into its boot because I know that if it isn't seeded well then it could cause muffling but it is in place and secure.  All of the contacts look fine and none were damaged or touched when the phone was opened.  Any idea where I could have gone wrong here?  Mainly the receiver speaker sounds garbly and scratchy.  Like it would sound from being water damaged and no this phone has never seen water.  Thank you for any help anyone.

Wow. That was your help?  Yes obviously it's damaged and obviously I have damaged it. Thank you for that. Now back to the question. What did I damage so I can fix it. This phone is too old for warranty as well. That's why I'm fixing it.  Please, everyone else. I don't want instore advice but tech help.  This is the Apple Community.
In your first post, you said you didn't damage it. It seemed worth pointing out that it was, in fact damaged. And, as I suggested in my first reply, you might try a website like ifixit.com. They specialize in resources for people to repair iPhones.
