Sieghard, It is good to know how to do this reset on a modern phone, for a while, people didn't know how to do it. But people should pay attention when you say not to hold the power button too long, in that if you do, it goes into recovery mode, the only way to get it out is to connect it to a computer running iTunes. If I had a modern phone and computer running modern iTunes, I would have put it into recovery mode on purpose one time just to see how long is too long, and how hard it is to get my device out of recovery mode. If you have done it on purpose, let us know the answers to how long and how hard. Thanks for any information.

I would not recommend to hold it too much longer than that and if you wear a wired headset you may hear a small click or snick when the phone restarts, it is very faint so probably not something you would pick up if you have any sort of hearing loss. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of bentleyj1...@gmail.com Sent: Saturday, May 2, 2020 10:55 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Phone not responding to two-finger double-tap with incoming call. Sieghard said in part, First pressing Volume Up, then Volume down and then pressing and holding the power button is forcing a hard reset How long do you have to hold down the power button when doing a forced reset? Is that the last step in doing a forced reset or, do you have to also tap something on the screen to finish the forced reset?

If all you want to do is to turn your phone off, just press the power button and hold it until the "Power off" button appears, Voiceover will announce it, then just double tap and that's it. First pressing Volume Up, then Volume down and then pressing and holding the power button is forcing a hard reset, really only necessary if your phone has locked up or is not eresponding in any other way. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Jennie Facer Sent: Saturday, May 2, 2020 11:11 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Phone not responding to two-finger double-tap with incoming call. To power your phone off, press volume up or down button along with the side button for a couple of seconds. Then you will want to double tap on power off.
