Can’t hear or be heard on iPhone 7 Plus

I had the above problem, but got a new phone. I now need to use the old phone for my daughter . . I put a sim in my old iPhone 7 Plus and updated to latest IOS, and made calls and revived calls . All worked perfectly. We then did total reset and added her Mac profile , and now same old problem , and speaker icon greyed out. Can’t be hardware because it worked perfectly . Any suggestions ?

Hello everythink,


We understand that you're experiencing sound issues on the iPhone, and we'd like to help.


To help us get a better understanding of the issue, we’d like to ask a few questions.


  1. Just to confirm, does the speaker button appear to be grayed out on all calls, or does the issue happen intermittently?
  2. Does the speaker icon appear to be grayed out when using other apps as well? For example, does it happen when attempting to record a voice memo? Make a recording in Voice Memos on iPhone
  3. What is the exact iOS version the device is running at this time? Find the software version on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod


There's also some additional information and steps outlined on the following page that may help: If the microphones on your iPhone aren't working


Thanks!
