Voice to text and Siri not working

**Jdhiker** · 09-07-2012, 06:45 AM

Anyone finding that Siri is not responding or voice to type isn't either? Wonder if it's a Verizon thing right now. I did reboot it but still taking forever to respond to my voice

I am on Verizon not jail broken and mine are not working either.

Siri is not working for me either...I'm on AT&T. This is what Siri responds with...

"I'm really sorry about this, but I can't take any requests right now. Please try again in a little while."

Siri has been working for me, but the voice to text wasn't.

Mines been hit or miss. I'm on the beta so I was figuring that's the issue.

so is it just not working on jail broken devices? I wonder if Apple finally is putting its foot down and starting to brick features on those devices. My 4S is jail-broke and both Siri, and speech to text are down

**Jdhiker** · 09-07-2012, 11:18 AM

I reset in general settings and still nothing. I am not jailbroke. Gonna drive me crazy now.

**SeanHRCC** · 09-07-2012, 11:27 AM

It's not the jailbreak that's causing the issue...mine is jailbroken but my wife's is not, and hers is having the same problems.

I reset my network settings and I'm still having the problem.

Minds back hopefully it stays

**pappy53** · 09-07-2012, 12:46 PM

Still down here...

**edd** · 09-07-2012, 12:51 PM

Im on Sprint and mine's down too. I didn't realize you need an Internet connection for simple voice texting.

My wife's been having intermittent problems with her vioce to text and I had a problem only once. I did have something else strange happen today. While I was sending a text my phone completely froze and shut off then rebooted.
We both have the 4s on at&t and neither of us are jailbroken.

Since this is a problem on not just one carrier is it an Apple server issue?

My Wife was always on Verizon and always had a Blackberry with no issues. I finally after about a year was able to convince her to switch to at&t and get the 4s. Now she thinks the phone sucks and thinks at&t sucks. Try telling a woman who knows everything that she is wrong. lol

any input on what the issue is?

**Rockdog97** · 09-07-2012, 02:23 PM

same issue for me on AT&T, jailbroke 5.1.1. Siri works but not voice to text...

**Rockdog97** · 09-07-2012, 02:24 PM

well now... Siri doesn't seem to be responding either... buggers!

**Morac** · 09-07-2012, 02:41 PM

Neither Siri nor dictation are working for my iPhone 4S (AT&T). It's not jailbroken. I've seen sporadic reports of Siri/dictation not working on Twitter and Apple's message boards. It's likely a server problem. I'm getting nothing for dictation and "uh oh there's a problem" or "I didn't get that" for Siri.

Reseting settings causes the phone to grab a new server token for Siri (and possible dictation as well). That's probably hit or miss depending on whether the phone grabs a token for a good or bad server.

I'm assuming the problems are related to upgrades being done for the release of iOS 6.

Edit:

It's being reported on TechCrunch now.

Been intermittent for me also the last two or three days. 5.1.1 Verizon southeast VA northeast NC.

I don't understand why even if I try the voice input on iMessage or WhatsApp it still doesn't work. I too didn't realize that any voice input requires data/server connection.

**dwayne.williams** · 09-07-2012, 05:50 PM

Siri and voice recognition have been out for me for most of the day. This is the first time this has happened since having my iPhone. I wonder how long its going to last. Hopefully not too long.
