[nabs-l] iphone issue

There might be a legitimate bug, and if so, I'm sorry you're
experiencing that as I can see how it would be frustrating. However, I
would say that 99% of my random and weird iPhone issues can be fixed
in one of a few ways. You can do a simple reset by pressing your lock
button 6 times consecutively and quickly. There will be a pause, and
then VoiceOver will say "VoiceOver on." And you should be able to
continue using the phone normally. You can do a more thorough reset by
holding the lock button down for 10-15 seconds. This will restart your
phone. You can also just try restarting your phone the normal way.
Neither of the resets I suggested cause any changes in your settings
or information on the phone. You can also reset the settings; the
option is found in the settings menu, but note that it does reset
preferences you've set such as Wifi networks, VoiceOver preferences,
ringtones, etc. So since that one is the most cumbersome to set back
up, I usually leave that fix for my last try. If none of these help,
you can always contact Apple customer service. If you have already
tried these things, then sorry. They're great ideas for other people
experiencing oddities in their iPhones though. For me, these resets
have fixed everything from my phone not making calls to VoiceOver
lockups where it stops speaking to my speakers not working. iPhones do
funny things sometimes, but for me, they have fortunately been
relatively easy to fix.
