Re: Lost VO Entirely
It's a way to reset the phone. I think it overloads the phone and causes it to reboot. So, I don't reboot mine that way if it locks up. Instead, I press and hold the sleep/power button for a half-second, and then press home so I'm holding them both in together. I hold them in together for about 10 seconds and then release them both. The phone reboots then. I believe this method is documented in the manual, but I'm not sure if pressing sleep/power six or seven times in a row is. Good luck. -- Raul A.

RE: Lost VO Entirely
Good point, Fred; I'll have to be more careful, but I have had the whole phone lock up---as verified by a sighted friend--so let's hope the new phone is less problematic, and the operator will be more cautious. grin Darla -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of fred olver Sent: Monday, May 21, 2012 5:43 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Lost VO Entirely No, but sometimes it does, and all we can do is everything which has been suggested to you.

RE: Lost VO Entirely
Have you tried it with earphones? I had this happen with someone's iPad on Friday. If it works with earphones, remove the earphones and do a two finger flick up so VO is going to be reading the entire screen, then start tapping the up volume button on the side. If VO comes up, then go into your sound settings and set it so it does not use the volume buttons to adjust the sounds volume.
