Alan and listers What a relief! I felt as if I were the one witnih the situation! Somethig similar happened to me sevral years ago, but within an iOS update (not the big ones). The iPHone had stopped talking, and was in the middle of the update/restart process via ITunes,and ITunes Here in Mexico we don’t have Apple Accessibility, but Thank God I was with a very knowledgable iPhone friend over Whatsapp, and he directed in getting the problem resolved. What a relief! Thus I really was like “oh my lease let it resolve!” While you were telling us about your situation. And as you say, it’s definitely an experience! To learn from!p with some sort of error code! Thank
