Q: siri doesn't respond?

I activate Siri and tell her something...and she beeps as if she knows I said something... but occasionally nothing else happens.   This can happen over and over again.  What am I doing wrong?

    Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

    Note: You will not lose anything.

    1. Disable and re-enable Siri

    2. Reset phone - press both home and on/off buttons for at least 10 seconds untl the Apple logo appears.

    I had this same issue happen to me and I tried to disable and re-enable Siri as well as a reboot. With no results I became impatient but then I listened to Siri. She was saying that she was having issues connecting to the network(or nothing at all) so I decided to give disabling the Wi-Fi a try and test Siri on just the 4G(AT&T). And it worked. I re-enabled the Wi-Fi and she was rebooted on the Wi-Fi. So here are the steps I took:

     

    Settings>General>Wi-Fi>OFF

     

    test Siri on 4G(worked for me)

     

    If Siri works on 4G then turn Wi-Fi back on and test Siri on the Wi-Fi(worked for me)
