Hi Patty,

 

A couple of things you can try:

 

Plug in a headset and check if you hear Voiceover. If you do then your
Voiceover volume got turned down to 0.

 

If that is the case, make sure your phone is unlocked with the headset
connected, then unplug the headset and do a 2-finger swipe up. This will
start reading the content on your screen starting at the top, now repeatedly
push the volume up button and you should be able to turn your speaker volume
up again.

 

If you don't hear Voiceover volume using the headset either, try a 3-finger
double tap which turns speech on/off. This is different from turning off
Voiceover with a triple click home and you may have accidently muted your
speech this way. You normally do hear the Voiceover clicks if speech is
muted this way and you said you don't hear any of that so I assume this is
not what happened although, as Mich pointed out, your mute switch may also
have been moved which would mute those sounds. For the phone to be unmuted,
the mute switch has to be in the forward position (towards the screen), if
you push it back and mute it, there will be a short vibration, you will not
get that vibration if you pull it forward again.

 

 

Good luck,

Sieghard

I reset my phone the other day, because I thought maybe it would change my
voice calling setting back to saying the number back to me in English
instead of French or whatever the heck it's saying when it repeats the
number.

I thought everything was fine.

The phone was working till yesterday afternoon, when I was out.  I had been
out a couple hours or so with my phone in my purse.

My friend and I stopped somewhere to get her some lunch, and I stayed in the
car.  I took the phone out of my purse while she was inside placing her
order, and realized it was not speaking.

I thought, well maybe we are in an area with no signal, and figured once I
got it home and on its charger again speech and sounds would come back.

Well they haven't.  I only get the sound when I lock the screen, reset by
pressing home and power, which I haven't done much of that; and I hear my
chime clock on the phone when it goes off.

Nothing else, not even the little blips you hear when your unlocking the
screen or going through apps.  I tried restoring the phone through itunes,
nothing.  I tried the triple tap on the screen and with the home key,
nothing.

It's a mystery, for sure.

 

Anybody got any thoughts?

Patti
