David, I have to admit that I have not used this reboot procedure more than maybe a couple of times, yet I have not encountered this issue. So, is there any particular pattern to reproducing the problem? FOr example, rebooting repeatedly (within a period of time) such as maybe every five minutes for 10 times etc.? Perhaps rebooting the phone more than once a week? Also, is there any particular app that has caused the condition which necessitated a reboot? I am curious if there is in fact some pattern or application that may be the cause for the loss of speech etc. when the phone is rebooted using this technique.
