iPhone 4S help!

[Grolsch30]

Hi,

After my son just played a game on my iPhone my phone went really sluggish.

After i turned it off and then back on again it remained sluggish and also to use any of the icons i have to tap then once and siri says what icon i have tapped and then have to double tap it again for it to open.

Everything i do siri now describes what i am doing or what the function is!!!

Also i am unable to activate my sim card by typing in my pin code to unlock it.
Again siri says sim locked and i have to tap in the field where i put the password in and once i press the keyboard numbers siri says what they are but no numbers actually are visible in the input field.

I can't scroll up or down either!

Anyone any thoughts on this?

It seems like some kind of accessibility option is enabled. Just restore your iPhone in iTunes.

the phone is basically useless now as i can't do anything with it.

looks like the restore is the only option

Seems your son was messing with settings.

Settings > General > Accessibility then turn everything off.

From what you describe that should get you back to normal. You could prolly restore it but... what a hassle!

If the VoiceOver accessibility option is turned on, just turn it off. No restore needed. You have to remember that it's changed the touch interface; touch an item to select it, double-tap it to activate it.

Turn off via Settings->General->Accessibility->VoiceOver
