My phone randomly went to siri command and I cant unlock it

My phone went to audio command and I now it only works on Siri and is asking for my passcode via Siri, and does not open with my passcode. I rebooted it and it didn't help. I hooked it back up to my MacPro and that didn't do anything either.
HELP!
Thanks

It is after four years, but i had this issue with my iphone 5 today. And i came across this post while searching what to do. I tried switching off and removing sim card. Nothing worked.
I tapped the screen using three fingers , It came to the normal size .

  • My 2 month old Iphone is losing it's mind.  It's randomly turning on Voice Command and calling people or turning on the IPod.  It freezes up and won't let me go back to the home screen.

    My 2 month old IPhone started randomly turning on Voice Command and calls people and turns on the IPod.  It freezes up and won't let me push the home button.  Any suggestions?

    OK, I reset it several times and it worked fine all day yesterday.  Today when I turned on the bluetooth it went back to the same problem.  Voice Control comes on and the home button won't work at all.  I have gone through the reset many times and it isn't working.  How do I restore firmware as you suggested?

    I have an IMac.   I put a folder on the desk top and now want to delete it.  The folder seems to be locked.  I went into Get Info and attemted to unlock the folder and delete it.  Won't go away.   There is nothing in the folder.   How do I unlock this folder and delete it?   When I try to delete it, I'm asked for my password which I put in and is accepted, but will not delete the folder.  Any help would be great.

    If you are sure there is nothing in it, download trashit, a useful free app.   That will dispose of it.

  • My iPhone 4s randomly went into recovery mode and iTunes can't get it to restore.

    Last night my iPhone randomly went into recovery mode on me. Just before I went to sleep a bunch of static lines appeared across the screen. The screen went dark and a few seconds later the Apple logo appeared. A few seconds later is disappeared. A few seconds later it came back. So on and so forth. I thought I had turned it off and was going to deal with it in the morning, but when I woke up the iPhone still just had the Apple logo going on and off again.
    I've tried everything today. All the different button hold methods out there. I've tried to sync it to iTunes but the same **** keeps happening over and over again.
    A message pops up saying "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." So I press OK. Then I press the "Restore iPhone..." button on iTunes. It asks me if I'm sure I want to "restore it to the factory settings" and I click "Restore and Update". It then says that its "extracting software", "preparing the iphone to restore", "waiting for the iphone", then "verifying iphone restore with Apple". As this is going on the "connect to iTunes" sign is shown on the screen of the iPhone. When the "waiting for the iPhone" part starts, my screen goes black, then the apple logo pops up. The "verifying iphone restore with apple" comes on the iTunes and the status bar appears underneath the Apple logo on my phone's screen. It sits there for a couple of seconds with no progress and then the screen goes black. Then iTunes has the same **** message saying "The iPhone 'iPhone' could not be resotred. An unknown error occured (9)."
    I've gone through this process countless times in the past few hours and have done everything that apple support has told me. The windows system is fully updated. So is the iTunes. I've restarted the computer. I have no idea whats wrong and its making my blood boil.
    A couple of notes about the phone:
    It's over a year old. It's never had water damage. It was nearing the max capacity of its internal storage. This has never happened before. I keep it in an Otter Box. I had very little problems with the phone. Lately a couple of apps like snapchat and the barstool sports app were taking a little longer to open up or would randomly close out and sometimes my camera would take a while to get going. But this problem is just ridiculous and completely rendered the phone useless.

    Hello Sean,
    It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

    If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

  • Why is siri naming everything on the screen and I cant unlock my device

    I have an IPHONE 4 and was trying out the siri feature and now when I try ro swipe the screen to unlock the device she just names everything on the screen like "unlock button" etc. Ive asked her to unlock the pone and she cannot, I've held down the top button and the home button at the same time to re boot asn she's still there! I need a solution please.

    I believe you have voice control activate, try swiping your screen with 3 fingers and then turning off voice control in settings.
    There is no Siri for an iphone 4 only 4S or higher.

  • There is a voice over in my Ipad 2 and i cant unlock my ipad using my passcode

    Please Help! i just updated my Ipasd2 and there is this in accesibility, that made me in trouble. there is a voice over in my Ipad, whenever i touched it. and there i cant unlocked my Ipad. Help!

    Is this what you said? :
    You updated your iPad 2 to iOS 6. You were playing with accessibility (or turned it on accidentally) and turned voiceover on. Now you can't unlock your iPad.
    Do you know how to use the iPad in VoiceOver mode? First tap on what you would normally tap on. Then double tap anywhere on the screen. To unlock the iPad, tap on the "Slide to Unlock" bar. Double tap. Tap on the first character in your passcode. Double tap. Etc.
    To turn off voiceover (even without unlocking the iPad), triple tap the home button. tap on VoiceOver. Double tap.

  • I have a iphone 4s and the wifi settings on my phone randomly went grey and turned off and i dont know how to fix it any ideas?

    My wifi isnt working need to know how to fix it because now im using all my data, not sure how to fix it hoping someone will know

    How exactly does someone search for a resolution to an issue without the specifics of the issue?
    The iPhone never displays any errors with "something about programming".
    Before you go any further, stop being vague.  READ the error message and post the precise text of the message here or google it.  Otherwise you risk wasting time, losing data, or possibly bricking the device by doing unnecessary and irrelevant troubleshooting.

  • I phone randomly went into recovery mode

    I plug my iphone in every night to charge and the battery life was at about 80-90% before I went to bed. I woke up and saw that it wouldnt turn on or anything. Its like it was dead. I plugged it in to my computer and opened itunes and it said my phone was in recovery mode and i had to restore it to the original factory settings. Why did it do this?! it is completely inconvenient and is making me hate the phone!

    I am also having this issue. Running iOS 4.0.1. My iPhone seems to go into recovery mode without any apparent cause. Typically, this happens overnight, but recently the problem has become more frequent, and also has now happened once in an interval of 15 minutes between setting the phone to sleep, and trying to resume use of it. I have tried to restore my phone several times, and while this initially seemed to help (there was a time when this issue was happening almost nightly), eventually the recovery mode issue has begun to recur. I have held off on updating my system software until I can find out more about what might cause this problem.
    Of course, holding down Home+On for 10+ seconds will force boot the iPhone, but this really shouldn't be happening in the first place.
