Yeah, what Ben said. It could be possible to just reseat your current front camera flex assembly, or you may need to replace it

Here's a guide

Here's parts

Or, could be a display assembly issue. Even factory ones, can't seperate, and cause funcionality issues

I think the fault lies in the front camera assembly and/or the earpiece speaker not being mounted properly. Might need to reseat both. A bit busy right now to post link to guides.

Ok thank you both for the ansewers, but if i can ask, front camera flex can disturb headphone too? One is top, and one is bottom, 2 different cables!

Also i already reset the ear speaker and the front camera flex, but I didn't try to change any because I don't have another to try it

But i noticed another thing:

i just found out the problem is not happening with whatsapp call, both speakers working if i call thought whatsapp

Maybe i just have to do restore?
