Hello Josh, Siri can only officially work on iPhone 4S. Aso, it's
questionable as to whether pressing the power/sleep button so many times
is a safe respring.

Hello. This is quite interesting. I guess this bug doesn't just apply
to jailbroken iPhone 4 users. I recently installed Siri on my iPhone 4,
and I have also noticed this bug. Unfortunately, I don't believe there
is a permanent fix for this. When this happens, the way I usually fix
it is by restarting the springboard. You can do this by quickly
pressing the power button five times in a row.

Subject: Siri freezing when using voiceover
I am writing to find it if any other members have had issues with Siri &
Voiceover working together using the Iphone 4s? I use voiceover constantly
however I have noticed that when using Siri with Voiceover continuously
that
Voiceover will say "listening" and that Siri will freeze, no tone will be
emitted to indicate that Siri is "thinking". I do have hints turned off on
Voiceover, and I guess if I needed to I could use Siri like a sighted
individual but I would prefer to use the two accessibility features
together. I am curious if this problems cause is specifically do to
Siri or
Voiceover.
I have read that you can flick around the screen using Voiceover while
pressing the volume up button and that sometimes will fix the issue,
unfortunately I am not so lucky... A temporary fix I have come across
is if
you turn on Airplane mode on/off it will reset the network and that will
bring Siri back online. I did report this issue to Apple Accessibility and
they will investigate the issue.
In the meantime if anyone has found a more permanent solution to this
problem please do not hesitate to share.
Marissa
