How to Set Hearing Aid Mode on 4s?
I have two iPhone 4s running IOS5 and am unable to see the Hearing Aid Mode feature in General Settings.

See p. 139 of the User Guide... http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
Problem is that I've been told that several times, but going to that page shows "Vision" with "VoiceOver, Zoom, Large Text, White on Black, Speak Selection, Speak Auto-text", "Hearing" followed with "Custom Vibrations", "LED Flash for Alerts", "Mono Audio", "L-R"(slider), then "Physical & Motor" with "Assistive Touch", Incoming Calls", and finally "Choose route for incoming calls" and "Triple-click Home". Nothing there about setting Hearing Aid Mode.
So what am I missing? Are one of these things actually "Hearing Aid Mode"? Does something else have to be enabled to bring up that menu selection?
This is true on both my Sprint and my Verizon iPhones.
It looks like the 4S does not have it. The last line of page 139 of the User Guide says "Activate Hearing Aid Mode (iPhone 4 GSM): Go to Settings > General > Accessibility."
The guide also gives a link to this page which would seem to wrap it up:
only avialable on AT&T phones
I've been told by an AT&T user that he can't find the option, either.
Seems like this shouldn't be so mysterious, huh? I'm waiting to slap myself in the head with a "Duh!", but so far, nobody gots an answer... Is anyone using this feature on 4s? Or any iPhone for that matter? And why in the heck, if this were true, would AT&T be the only one to offer it (ssuming koox55 has evidence of someone actually seeing this feature and (shudder) using it)
Hmmmm.
