Setting up Siri on iPhone: turning it on, language, voice and shortcuts

You turn Siri on under the Siri section of Settings on iPhone; there you choose the listening phrase, side button use, the language and Siri’s voice. Where you would rather not speak, you can also type commands to Siri. Menu names can differ slightly by iOS version.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
