IPhone 7 Plus, Microphone and Calling stopped working after IOS 14.4 update

I have an IPhone 7 Plus, the camera stopped working completely, wasn’t taking any pictures.

After I updated to IOS 14.4 that fixed the ability to take pictures. But now my microphone won’t record any sound, nor can I hear people when they call me. My calls are even failing and not going through. On social media if I try to record videos or put music with the recordings it won’t play the music nor will the video record properly.


I have tried a hard reboot of the phone, going through my settings and granting access to my microphone and camera, refreshing the apps, tried turning Bluetooth on and off, the audio button just stays grayed out, and I can’t hear anything.


anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
