No, I’ve tried it with my x and I can’t get it to power off. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jessica Moss Sent: Wednesday, 20 December 2017 9:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Sudden voiceover issue with iPhone 7+
I was wondering if Siri could be used to restart the device; thanx for the tip on how to restart the device. I remember with older phones, it used to be the home+power button, but now, all that seems to do is take screenshots.

If this doesn’t work, then hold down the power button and, I believe, the volume up buttons for ten seconds. Then, release the volume key, while still holding the power button. I really wish Siri could be used to restart devices, but ah well.

I’ve tried a soft reset which if I remember correctly, you’re supposed to hold down the home button and power button at the same time for about 30 seconds, but when I do that and release them, all that does is take screenshots. I can’t even power my phone off properlywhen this happens without help, sense the double-tap feature isn’t working, and when I tried making a call using Siri, the whole screen freezes after the call is placed, so I have no keypad, no way to end the call, etc. Has anyone else ever had this issue? -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
