I can’t hear anything when I call people or when they call me. My speaker button is grey. What is wrong with my phone?

How do I make my speaker button work? It’s gray.

Confirm that your side switch is turned to on. You may have a faulty audio IC and if so take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.
