Why is my sound dim unless I am on speaker/using headphones?

Hi. Using Samsung Galaxy S9 and the sound on phone calls has become dim. If I plug in headphones or go on speaker mode, it sounds fine.

The people I am calling can hear me fine.

Is this a cleaning issue? Been trying to resolve for a few weeks but struggling.

Thanks.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Take some tape and stick it to the earpiece speaker grill towards the top of the phone. Stick it in place and remove (about 4-5 times ) and give it a try. If its still muffled, it’ll need to be cleaned/replaced from the inside

Hi,

It could be a cleaning issue or perhaps a faulty speaker.

Either way you may have to open the phone to find out
