Well, I've been up since a little after 1:30 this morning after only three
hours of sleep, but hey, at least I learned something new. <grin>

Hi Lisa, congratulations to you!
That sounds like a pretty crazy experience. Kudos to you for figuring it
out! YOu rock! :)
Just as a bit of info for anyone interested, you can unlock the screen by
touching just above the home key, and toward the left side of the screen,
or just to the left of the home key as Lisa did and then slowly sliding
your finger to the right.
This may take a few tries but will unlock the screen without VO running,
and is a gesture well worth practicing.
HTH and congrats to you again, Lisa!
Smiles,
Cara :)

Hi, all.
Okay, my issue is resolved.
This involved some very frantic and frustrating trouble shooting, but
here's
what happened in case it happens to anyone else.
As far as I can tell, The Screen got locked and speech somehow got muted
when I tried picking up and then dropping the keyboard.
I deduced this by the fact that I had no sounds at all except for the
SIRI
tones Plus, I tried the two finger triple tap or triple tap home and
neither
restored speech.
Then, I pressed the power button once and heard the familiar screen unlock
sound. I tried unlocking the screen at this point, but this was
impossible because I couldn't double tap on the right area of the screen.
I
was tapping to the left and just above the home button, so I was in the
ballpark, but you know. . .
Then I tried first summoning SIRI and calling myself. the call went
through, just as it would when the screen was locked with VO running. I
couldn't end the call with the 2 finger double tap no matter where on the
screen I tapped. I had to wait for the phone to end the call.
Then I decided to call my voice mail again unlock the phone while the call
was in progress. I used SIRI to make the call, then I used the space key
on
the keyboard to unlock the screen and got to the home screen by pressing
the
home button twice. Then I unmuted speech with the three finger double
tap.
Like I said, the simultaneous VO muting and screen locking occurred using
a
slightly dropped Amazon Basics Bluetooth Keyboard and an iPhone 5. I have
no clue what combination of keys needed to be pressed to make this happen,
I'm just glad I got it resolved.

Hi, all.
I was trying to pick up my Amazon basics Bluetooth keyboard and dropped
it
while I was picking it up. It didn't fall that far and the batteries,
etc. are still in but now I have no phone noises other than the keypad
phone beeps and the ascending/descending tones you get if you use the
Home
button to summon SIRI. I figure I either pressed a funky key combo or
something happened when the keyboard fell, even though it's fine as far
as
I can tell.
I realized I had no speech and stupidly started poking around on the
phone
and heard the tuch tone noises, so this is how I know about the keypad.
I also tried triple click home with no luck.
I'm not sure how the phone behaves if it's been muted, I mean, do you
still hear keypad and SIRI noises?
Is this muting, and how do I fix it? I'm using the Otterbox defender
case, and if there's a switch up there past the external volume up button
I can't feel it.
I'm usually a figure it out as I go person, but
I'm leaving later this morning so need to figure out how to fix this or
if
I can use the phone until eyes are here to hopefully se the screen.
