Hi there,
My iphone 7plus has the same problem after updating to 11.3 last week.
I connected my phone to Bluetooth earphone once, and after that my phone cannot make any calls. The speaker option is grey and cannot hear any sound.
Music and videos are fine through the speaker.
Voice memo not working.(red record button grey out)
I can only make calls through Bluetooth earphone connected now.

Pressing on the screen while starting. Defo a IC chip issue
What 40? Where did you take it ???
Best deal I have found is $120usd here in the states ... is that a local repair shop or a large operation?
I spoke too soon, it resolved the speaker grayed out but still can't hear both end when call is in progress. It's like were both muted.......
This is a known hardware issue in IP7 and IP7+ units. There is an ongoing class lawsuit for this case.... let’s wait and see what is Apple’s course of action....
Hay I fixed the problem by using Bluetooth headphones , super annoying but at least your phone isn’t junk.
All I know is this is the last iPhone I ever buy!
Similar design issue on 6+ called the “touch disease”. Apple has really high quality standards, but dropped the ball on this one.
Try resetting it(soft reset, not factory) multiple times. If this doesn't work, go to the Apple Store.
I am having this same exact issue with the 12.3.1 update ... SOMEONE PLEASE HELP
I have same problem.
I am unable to use my phone to talk. The iphone speaker, facetime and add a call are greyed out.
Same here my phone looks new. Did not expect this kind of support from Apple.
My iPhone is having the same problem, I cannot see my speaker button once I make a call. Is there an easy fix for this?
Try soft reset your iPhone. If it’s a XS do the answer above
