iPhone 4 headphone microphone stopped working
The headphones that came with my iPhone 4 are working fine except, out of the blue, the microphone stopped working a couple of days ago. Everything else about the headphones work - I can hear fine, I can use the "squeeze" to stop and start tracks, but the mic is totally dead. If I try making a voice memo, nothing is recorded - voice control shows no input coming in.
I looked online and some suggested checking for lint in the iPhone jack, but it looks crystal clear.
Any other ideas before I think of spending $30 for another set of headphones. Any way to check out the microphone for a loose connection or the such.
Thanks
iPhone 4, iOS 4.2
