no sound when recording videos with iphone 4s - ios7

Since I have downloaded ios7 to my iphone 4s I am no longer getting any sounds when recording videos. When looking back at past videos I have recorded, they still have sound in the playback. I have tried resetting my phone and reseting it to factory settings. Any recommendations?

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.2

I had this same problem. After watching many youtube clips of people telling me to clean various mic ports, I found something relevant. Somebody was cleaning their dock! Sounds stupid, but apparently if a pin is shorted or something of the sort it may turn off different components. This person could not play any sound. All I did was plug in the charger...Wiggle it...just a little bit...(sorry couldn't help it)...and I could record sound on the video recorder again.

I hope this helps!

I had the same problem with my 4s and after trying all the tricks in the book, it still didn't work. Plugging in headphones with a mic attachment let me record sound as it used the mic from the headphones and not of the actual devices. Best solution I had was taking it to the nearest apple store and having them replace the device. They work off reservation so make sure you call ahead or go to their site, my phone was out of warranty so I had to pay but they gave me a new phone same model.
