Galaxy watch 4 ⌚️ (cellular)

[RyRy1997]

For a while now the mic on my watch hasn't worked, I can't make call, I can't use speech to text and I can't use bixby on my watch.

I've looked through all setting, I've looked for a watch diagnostic test (had no luck) and I've tried reseting/reformatting but nothing has worked.

Is there anything I've missed or do I need to go to my provider?

Hello @RyRy1997, the only 3 things I can think of are:-
1. Dust in the microphone port between the 2 buttons
2. Some sort of Water Lock corruption
3. Have you changed the default keyboard and, it's become confused?

You've probably covered 2. and 3. in your actions to date.

I stupidly didn't think of 1, I have no idea what 2 is and as for 3 I set my keyboard to Google Gboard so I had a qwerty keyboard on my watch

@RyRy1997, the Water Lock setting on the watch is probably best explained here :-

Apologies, @RyRy1997, responded too quickly I thought I read somewhere that someone else had issues when moving away from default keyboard, but I can't find it now. Perhaps I dreamt it!
