Hello everyone,
I got my iPhone in the middle of August and have had no complaints up until now. Two days ago (Saturday 9/18) my phone's mic cut out in the middle of a conversation. I could hear the other person perfectly, but they couldn't hear me at all. I received a call later in the day and it worked for a few minutes and then the same problem occurred. I called them back and it worked for the rest of the conversation but the normal speaker used for phone calls (not speaker phone) started crackling. Now whenever I call someone or get calls my mic works intermittently and there's an almost constant crackling on my end of the line which goes away if I use speakerphone. The mic also appears to work when I use speakerphone but I haven't tested it that much. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know of a solution other than getting a replacement phone? I'm at college and there isn't an apple store anywhere near me and going without a phone for weeks would be a huge inconvenience.
Edit: If this helps, the speaker works absolutely fine playing music or any other noises, and the mic works fine for voice memos.
