Hey I had this problem.

This may be a weird way to go round it but I bought a new iphone flip case (Griffin elan passport wallet case for iphone4/4s) that opens from the side. I then cut open the material at the bottom to remove the small metal button which allows you to press the home button easily and now I have no problems with voice control going off anywhere, whether it's in a bag or my pocket. The down side is that you now have to press a bit harder for the home button and when you type, the edges of the case are close to the edges of the screen but I got use to it fine in the end. If my iphone is safe, scratch free, and doesnt have a chance of screwing with voice control EVER, then I'm happy.

Hope this is helpful to someone!

Apple, you are complacent.


I LOCKED MY PHONE.

There should be NO way for me to access anyting and/or have it beeping at me through my pocket (even on silent). You can count the buttons on an iphone with 1 hand, why is it they aren't ALL LOCKED when I lock my phone?? This is beyond reason.


The blue screen 'Voice Control' that pops even when the phone is locked, needs to be fixed.


Never again.
