Hello spudfromjackson,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. We understand that a period is no longer inserted when double tapping the space bar on your iPhone. You've done a great job trying to get this resolved so far. We're happy to help.


If you haven't already, make sure "." Shortcut is enabled in Settings > General > Keyboard. Let us know the results. Be sure to include any other troubleshooting steps that you may have tried.


Have a great day!
