You are not alone!


Since upgrading to iOS 12.0.1 from 11.4.1

Dictation only works via bluetooth and headphones with mic

Siri, pushing the home button, only works via bluetooth and headphones with mic

"Hey Siri" does not work. Also, after turning it off and trying to turn it back on, Siri no longer hears me to set it up

Front camera records video without sound unless headphones with mic are used.

Rear camera is okay

Phone calls are okay

Voice memo is okay


Tried:

Resetting network settings - no fix

Disconnecting bluetooth and reconnecting - no fix

Restoring as a new iPhone - no fix

Restoring backup - no fix


Apple says I should take my iPhone in. All evidence would say this is a hardware issue. But it happened after I upgraded to 12.0.1. All was fine morning before I upgraded.
