Front and rear microphones not working after screen and battery replac

Hi all...

I replaced the screen and the battery on an iPhone 5s recently. Afterwards, only the bottom microphone will work. I opened the phone back up and double checked the connections but still no function to the rear or front microphones. Is there a chanced the new screen part could be defective? Any and all ideas are appreciated.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Sounds to me like something may have been damaged during the replacement or you may just need to calibrate the battery. Often times after a repair of that type some issues may occur but sometimes calibrating the battery helps. To calibrate follow these steps:

1)force restart the phone by pressing and holding down the power button and home button until you see the apple logo appear

2)release the buttons and then repeat step one a few more times. Try five times to be safe.

Afterwards try using the microphones again and see if it helps.
