Why isn't my LG Vista microphone working?

LG Vista microphone issues

The issue that I have been having is that the microphone that is used for regular calls has been not working but my speakerphone will. I have also found out that if I plug my phone in to charge, my microphone ( that wasn't working before) will turn on and work with out an issue and will continue to work for some time afterwords ( I don't know for how long I just found this out). I am not sure what could be causing this issue and would appreciate any help.

Have you installed anything recently that may have attributed to this problem? It sounds like a software issue rather than hardware. Worst case scenario is to factory reset. Otherwise, remove that particular app or service.

I know this is an old thread, but I am experiencing the same issue. I have factory reset the phone (didn't add in any apps) and that fixed the problem for the night. Woke up this morning, same thing which I can only assume is caused by having the phone plugged in over night. Constantly factory resetting the phone can't be the only solution.
