Scott, I have not yet been able to figure out any patterns yet. I managed to make it lose VO again by having my braille display connected when I did the power home reboot. The most annoying thing is that the rotors are both set back to factory defaults each time VO is switched off. Also, triple-click home is deactivated, so iTunes is necessary for restarting VO on the iPhone.
