New iOS 9.3.4 update - No sound. HELP

I downloaded the new IOS update this morning - all went fine.


Since then when i receive text messages, or emails or when i try to watch any videos - no sound.


I have checked all the settings and they seem the same as before.


When someone calls me, the phone rings as normal, but when i answer, no sound can be heard.


On the ringtone settings, the same happens again when i test - no sound, yet sound on the ringtone.


So confused.

iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.4

I have the similar issue, had a battery replaced and suddenly my ear speaker stopped working, picked up calls and can't hear a thing, turned on loudspeaker and could continue with a call. I even tried listening to audio notes through the ear speaker but nothing, the sensor will remove sound from the loudspeaker but no sound comes from the ear speaker.

I have iOS 9.3.4 and also often cannot hear people I call. Apple PLEASE fix this. "Phones" are meant to be able to make PHONE calls. 😮 Can I return my phone since it is called an "iPhone" and "ICannotPhone" ???


It is so annoying and embarrassing how often I call my friends and family on my iPhone SE and the call connects, without my hearing a dial tone and I cannot hear anything.


Their landline and mobile phones ring and mine does not.

So there I go again turning off my brand new iPhone and restarting it.


Wish I'd have stuck with my iPhone 4S which never had any problems.


I can only hope Warren Buffett is having this problem which maybe will prioritize getting it fixed.
