So if you have downloaded any apps and now your phone’s sound is not working. Better to uninstall it, switch off your phone and restart it. Also update your mobile application from time-to-time for a better experience.
Backup and reset
If your phone is not so much old, in most of the cases sound problem occurs due to software issue. So get ready for hard set factory reset.
