Replace the front camera/proximity flex cable

If that doesnt work you must have dust on the ear mesh you replace that.

I have the same problem (iOS 9.3.5), after I replaced the battery and the Display. I recognized, that Siri and videos recorded by the front facing camera don't have sound, just static. On another iPhone 5 (iOS 10.3.3) it is working fine, so it seems that the "Front-Facing Camera and Sensor Cable" is not the cause. May be I damaged surrounding components, when disconnecting the Sensor Cable off the logic board :( Everything else is working fine.
