I had exactly the same thing happen with my 4S running ios 7.03 last night.
Holding down the home and lock buttons for 10 seconds fixed it.  Very
strange.  I've also noticed that my voice-over sometimes stutters a bit.  
Boy, it's amazing how much I've grown to like this phone, and when something
happens, how much I can freak out! 
God bless!

Subject: Completely silent iPhone

Hi, all.

Using an iPhone 5 with the 7.03 OS.

My phone was working fine as of around 12:30 this morning.  the last thing I
did was check the weather and then replace the phone on my bedside table. 
It's programmed to lock after three minutes.  The phone wasn't on the
charger because the battery was at around 80% the last time I checked.

a couple of hours later, I tried checking the time by pressing the home
button once and got no speech at all.  I tried using SIRI and got no audio
feedback.  I tried plugging the phone in even though I know the battery is
about three quarters full.  I did here the phone tell me the battery was at
75% and charging and then the phone went silent again.  I tried pressing the
home button and flicking the mute switch and the phone didn't vibrate.

I've also tried using Bluetooth headphones and an external Bluetooth speaker
which have been paired with the phone for a while but I'm still not hearing
noises or speech.

I now have the phone connected to my PC and according to iTunes, all is
well,  I made sure VO was running through the configure accessibility  menu,
but still no speech.  I did feel the phone vibrate about 2 minutes ago, but
I'm not sure what this means as the battery isn't finished charging.

I've tried using my Bluetooth keyboard to mute/unmute, but still nothing.

I've tried the triple click home several times and haven't gotten any speech
at all after that initial announcement of the charging battery.  I also
tried the three finger double tap and heard no indication of speech being
turned on or off.

I don't think this is a case of volume being turned down as I could hear the
phone just fine when it talked last.

I haven't dropped the phone or dropped my Bluetooth keyboard; the phone was
just sitting on my nightstand so I have no clue what caused this.  Like I
said, it was working fine yesterday and once earlier this morning.

I have no sighted help here and won't have any for a couple of days.  If I
restore the phone, will I get the default volume settings back?


TIA for the help.

Lisa
