A BrailleTouch Discovery
Hello. I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, as I now delete most emails concerning BrailleTouch. But I have found a way to change how the phone is held in BrailleTouch. By default, you hold the device with the home button to the right. However, I have discovered that when I am in the braille keyboard, and turn the rotor, it changes the keyboard so that the home button is to the left. I get a click like I typed an invalid character, but then, in order to type, I have to turn my phone so that the home button is to the left. I could be wrong, but I don't recall reading about this in the manual. Josh -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

re: Alt F4 on iOS
Hello. Hidden is definitely the best word to describe this command. Not many people know about it. IOs provides a way to force quit applications. This is normally used if an app is non-responsive, but I have used it a few times when I've been too lazy to go into the app switcher. (lol) To force quit an app, do the following: 1. In the app you want to force quit, hold down the power button until VoiceOver says Slid to power off. 2. Release the power button, and hold down the home button. In a few seconds, you will be returned to the home scree, and the app will be closed. hth Josh - Original Message - From: Lauren Simmons simmonslaure...@gmail.com To: viphone viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Sat, 2 Feb 2013 18:16:26 -0800 Subject: Alt F4 on iOS Hi all, In the event I may be missing something, is there an equivalent for Alt F4 on an iOS device? I would like to launch an app such as Clock, set my alarm, then simply close the app completely. As is I'm having to go into the app switcher and go through the process of forcing an app to close. I realize Apple does what it does, and I realize that ultimately there may not be many memory resources used, and I realize I'm using a different OS, but there might be a hidden gen of a command I've not come across, and I'm hoping someone out there may know what this close app command might be.

re: access note, is it worth it?
Hello. I have not tried AccessNote, and don't plan on doing so. In my opinion, a notetaking app is not worth $20. There is a built-in Notes app in iOs, and if you want more features, I'm pretty sure that there are plenty of $0.99 alternatives on the App store. This is just my opinion though.

re: Iphone5 Says Double-Tap To Delete?
Hello. Firstly, when sending a post to the list, it is always a good idea to present as much information as posible about your problem. It will help people to better determine what is going on. Under what circumstances does your iPhone say double-tap to delete? If this happens on your home screen, this means that you have used the double-tap and hold gesture (where you double tap and hold on an app icon) After you have done this, double-tapping on an app will delet it, rather than open it. You can fix this by pressing the home button. hth Josh - Original Message - From: Fazil urdu...@telus.net To: viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Mon, 21 Jan 2013 19:18:57 -0800 Subject: Iphone5 Says Double-Tap To Delete?

To change the voice: 1. Select settings general and accessibility. 2. Go to the VoiceOver button. 3. Go to the language rotor button. 4. As you swipe through the options in the language rotor, you will hear what each voice sounds like. To add a voice, double-tap on it. 5.

re: Unjail breaking an iPhone 4S running 5.0.1.
Hello. Absolutely do not use the reset options on your phone. Because your phone is jailbroken, these options will not work; they will just render your device unbootable. Restoring from iTunes is the only way to unjailbreak an iphone. The process can take quite a while, so you may just need to wait awhile. If you continue having problems with restooring from iTunes, there are some things you could try, but I would recommend trying another restore.

re: How to downgrade to IOS 5.1.1
Hello. First of all, if you want to downgrade, your phone will need to be jailbroken. After your phone is jailbroken, you will be able to back up your shsh blobs. SHSH blobs are basically apple's way of signing firmware, and also their way of preventing users from downgrading. Apple is so against users jailbreaking their phones, that they will force you to use the latest version of IOS. After your phone is jailbroken, it is easy to back up your shsh blobs. You can either use a program like Tiny Umbrella, or you can use a utility called ishshit to back up your shsh blobs right from your phone. I'm not going to post downgrade instructions at this point, because I don't know if your phone is jailbroken. If you want more information on how to jailbreak or downgrade, let me know.

re: my update did not go well!
Hello. I'm not exactly sure what is wrong with your phone, other than something must have become corrupt during the update. The first thing you should try is holding down the home and power buttons for 10 seconds, to see if the device will reboot. If it doesn't work the first time, try it again. If iTunes won't even recognize your phone, I am doubtful that this will work, but its worth trying before getting involved in a more complicated solution. The next thing that you could try is putting your phone in DFU mode and then restoring with iTunes: 1. Connect your phone to the computer, and have iTunes open. 2. To enter DFU mode: - Hold down the home and power buttons for about 10 seconds. - Next, let go of the power button, but keep holding down the home button until you hear your computer making the USB connect sound. This will usually take about 15 seconds. Note: You may need to make more than one attempt to enter DFU mode, as timeing is absolutely essential. 3. Finally, try restoring your phone from iTunes. If you have any further questions, let me know. Josh - Original Message - From: Gail the U. S.

re: Prompts
Hello. If your device is jailbroken, then there is an activator extension that quits all applications. If your device is not jailbroken, then you will have to manually close your apps. Also, IOS has a force quit feature, but I would not recommend using it regularly.

RE: Fleksy on Android devices
I also feel the same way. I love my iPhone way too much to want to switch to another platform, especially with its accessibility limitations. I did, however, have a rather interesting thought about how Syntelia could make fleksy a keyboard for iOs. If apple will not allow Fleksy to be a keyboard for ios, then why couldn't Syntelia either make a version of fleksy for jailbroken devices, or make a tweak that jailbreak users could install that would make Fleksy a keyboard for iOs? Although I can't think of specific examples, I have heard of developers that make two versions of their app: one for the app store, and one for cydia. This is just my opinion, but I don't see why it couldn't be done.

Fleksy on Android as a keyboard default wouldn't be enough to cause me to switch from iPhone to Android. Although Android has definitely improved in terms of accessibility, from the reviews I've read and the podcasts I've listened to, it still has a long long way to go before it's comparable to IOS. I would never consider switching unless access was at least the same if not better than my iPhone. Just my thoughts. Personally, I'm hoping that Apple sees how terrific Fleksy is and works something out so that it can be used across the OS as a default. A long shot I know, but one can dream.

We are writing to ask a question to those in the list. As you know, we are committed to develop Fleksy and make it available for more and more users. One of the restrictions we've had so far, is that on iOS, Fleksy cannot replace your system keyboard across the device. We provide as much integration as possible, letting you email, SMS, tweet, and (soon) post to Facebook from within Fleksy. And you can copy and paste to any other app. We are trying to go beyond this: we could provide Fleksy as a keyboard across the device, so you can use it in every single app without the need to have a separate app, or to copy and paste. We've also noticed that Android is becoming more and more accessible for visually impaired users with each update. So, here's a question for the list: If there was a phone that was accessible, and that had Fleksy built in from the start. By built in, we mean that Fleksy could be used as a system keyboard on every app, and that Fleksy would come with the phone, i.e. without having to purchase the app separately. How likely would this be to make you consider buying such a device? Obviously we are talking about a hypothetical scenario, so for now let's assume all other features will be the same as your current device. Would the availability of Fleksy as a system typing mode to use in every app make you consider an accessible Android phone in your next upgrade? Looking forward to your thoughts on this.

box player
Hello. I am writing to inform everyone about an app that I find quite useful. If you are like me, and don't like the iTunes interface, then give box player a try. It is a media player app that can sink with your dropbox account. So, instead of dealing with the hassle of syncing playlists, you can simply import songs from your dropbox account. Of course, the app lacks some features that iTunes has, but I like having the ability to be able to simply import my music from dropbox right to my iPhone. The app is accessible, and only costs $0.99. Josh --
re: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.
Hello. At one time, I had the same problem you are currently having. Here are a few tips: 1. Know the qwerty keyboard. Before using Fleksy, you should have a good mental picture of where everything is on the qwerty keyboard. 2. Type with your index fingers. It does not work very well to type exactly like you would on a qwerty keyboard. I have found that the most productive and accurate way for me to use fleksy is to type with my index fingers. hth Josh - Original Message - From: Debbi Williamson debbi...@atlanticbb.net To: viphone@googlegroups.com Date sent: Mon, 20 Aug 2012 21:04:14 -0400 Subject: I'm Just Not Getting the Hang of Flexy.

I really like Fleksy also, and I really like the button in the lower right of the screen for new line as every time I swiped to the right and held my finger to get the new line it put a period on the end of the word I just typed. Sometimes I did not want the period as I had put in a comma or a colon. Has anyone noticed this? Perhaps it is my fingers! On another note, how do you do a wink and a smile with punctuation!

It is fun to type the Fleksy way. I was looking around for the ampersand sign and came across the (at) shortcut. Flicking down on the (at) brings up a bunch of email suggestions like @gmail, or @yahoo. That is pretty cool! I was also successful in doing the smile wink via punctuation. I like that there is the option to use the lower right button for new line. One question I have is, how do I enter a space. For example, when I entered the symbol, I noticed there was no space between it and the following word. Anyway, I just wanted to add in my positive comments on this app. I'm pleased more than I expected.
