Hello, Annie and Irene,
I have the same problem a lot, as well. It's rather annoying. The phone thinks it's still paired with the display, but nothing will work. Well, usually nothing. Sometimes the keys and buttons will opperate as normal, but the Braille line will not refresh to reflect the speech.At other times, the keys and Braille line will not cooperate, and turning the display off then on again will fix things. I usually turn the display off and on, then lock and unlock the phone. This usually works.
