Ios 5.0.1 crashing, slow and other problems

I am using an iPhone 4 running 5.0.1 and Im just fed up with it, as much as I loved the iPhone in the past Im afraid I have fallen out of love and I'm conteplating a breakup.
Problems I have had with the version 5.*.* update:
* Safari and the built in youtube app crash at least twice daily and other apps, most notably accuweather and Facebook also crash on a daily basis
* Pages/windows don't load properly, an example of this is the texting app, I open the app and select a converstation, the "messages" button, name and "edit" buttons apear at the top but the area that would disply the text conversation never changes to show the accutual text messages and only pressing the home button and reentering the messages app will fix this.
* I have had text messages compleatly disapear if I recive one while acitivly using the phone, mostly by pressing the home button or preforming other input at the same exact time I recive a text message. I get the popup notification dispalying the text of the message in the notifaction but when I go to reply to the message It is gone, like it never existed.
* Simply navagating the phone such as menus, back buttons, or loading apps is slow. I can out type the keyboard and in general the phone is becoming more and more usless. As an example, wakeing the phone with the home button takes upto a full two seconds for the unlock screen to open, then another full second for the phone to "think" before it unlocks. This is increadibly slow compaired to the previous versions, and much slower than my old iPhone 1 and my non-updated iPhone 3Gs
* I use to have a problem where the purple arrow indicated the phone was using location services about 50% of the time and it was the setting time zone feature. I disabled location services for this feature and it fixed the problem. I did not notice an abnormal battery drain with this problem.
* The keyboard will not hide and/or display at approprate times requireing me to restart the app.
* Notication sounds, mostly incoming SMS sounds dont play at approprate times or play twice a few seconds apart for the same incoming message
* Autocorrect is too easily learning misspelled words leading me to reset the keyboard dictionary too frequently
* Incoming email and SMS messages cause the phone to loudly vibrate while talking on the phone, this is a new problem with ios5. I use to be proud of the iphone for not doing this becasue I talk to people with androids and found the vibration noise very annoying while on the receving end.
My phone is rather clean and I have very few third party apps installed. I use the facebook app, a weather app, and only a few other apps. My storage memory is about half full and thats almost entirly music.
I regualry power cycle and restart my phone, I would say at least once a day. 
I have tried to fix the phone by disableing and enableing anything I can find from notifications, location services and icloud and nothing has helped.
I have also tried rebilding the phone, both from a backup, and restored as new. I have taken the phone to an apple store and had them restore it as well, they claim to be able to restore "deeper" than what I can do at home, I assume this is similar to flashing the firmware and not just the software. Doing any kind of restore does seem to help with the speed problem for about 2 days as it slowly gets worse and returns to its ever slow and defective operation.
I have not noticed any problems with my ipad v1 running ios 5.0.1
Two of my freinds complain about a similar experience with ios 5 on the iphone
Does anyone have similar problems or an idea for a fix?

Here's and update on my problems and here are are some screen shots of the types of problems I've been having since the v5.0.1 update. Keep in mind these are native apps and I have tried the rebuild phone crap many times, nothing helps.
This is screen shot of a what happened when I tried to use my camera one day, both the front and back cameras were all black. I had to power cycle the phone to get rid of this problem. The cameras appeared to be working correctly, I could focus and zoom but it was all black.
Here is an image of what happened when I searched for something in a map. This is after I picked the choice I wanted, the keyboard disappeared but the list didn't. I had to force close the app and restart it for this problem to go away. Who knew five bars on ATT was possible.
And finally this is the messaging app, although you would not know it. I had to return to home screen (after a long pause for it to process the button push) and return to the messaging app. This happens all the time with the messaging app and the notifications sounds drive me crazy. If  i'm using the phone, say browsing the web and I get an incoming message its almost 100% of the time the messaging app will screw up. The sound will play at the wrong time or not at all, message will show up in notifications and diasapear in message app or Ill have a problem like this:

  • Mac suddenly very slow and other problems

    Since a few days ago I've been experiencing the following problems:
    + VERY long startup time (more than four minutes vs. about a minute previously).
    + When starting an application, the system frequently hangs for a few seconds. (While it's hanging, sometimes the process is marked "doesn't react" in Activity Monitor).
    + Everything feels much slower and less responsive than it used to be and I'm frequently getting the spinning pinwheel.
    + Parallels doesn't start any more. After double-clicking the Parallels desktop icon, the icon jumps up and down in the dock for a little while and then just disappears.
    The problem may or may not be related to the removal of my Bootcamp partition, which I did shortly before the problems started to occur. I don't remember if the problems started immediately after the removal of the Bootcamp partition but I think it's likely that there is a connection.
    I did lots of things to find the cause and solve the problem, to no avail:
    + Made sure that after the Bootcamp removal the Mac HD is selected as the start volume.
    + Checked the HD using Disc Utility (no errors found)
    + Repaired permissions using Disc Utility
    + Created a new user account (problem persisted)
    + Cleared system caches
    + Ran various checks using Onyx (no problems found)
    + Deleted PRAM by starting up and pressing ALT-CMD-R-P
    + Checked for viruses (no viruses found)
    + Unplugged all USB devices
    + Reinstalled OS X ("archive and install")
    None of this helped.
    Observations:
    + I tried to start in safe mode but that made the startup procedure even slower, I was seeing the Apple logo and the grey spinning wheel for almost 10 minutes alone.
    + According to Activity Monitor there's always lots of free memory and CPU power.
    I'm really clueless as to what else I could do other than wiping the HD and reinstalling everything from scratch or sending the machine back to Apple. Any ideas would be *very much appreciated*!

    Hard to believe, the problem is back!
    Everything worked just fine last night. This morning I turn the iMac on and the problems are back: Extremely long time to startup, application hangs, everything super slow.
    Any ideas?
    I restarted in verbose mode and took some pictures, in case that helps...

    Hi frnds, I just purchased Ip4 and upgraded to ios 7 but it become slow and i cant find any group sms option.

  • The recent IOs 7.1 has been slow and unstable on both my iPad and iPhone, is there a fix?

    The recent IOs 7.1 has been slow and unstable on both my iPad and iPhone, is there a fix? It is very slow, e.g copy and paste from a browser.
    iPhone 5 & iPad gen 4

    I restarted my phone as suggested and it is still happening.
    My phone just blacks out at its own will as if the battery went dead then the apple logo appears and it restarts on it's own but my battery was still at 30% when it restarted. So that made no sense. When I try to type in my password it freezes up before I can get all of the characters in. I still hear the clicks of my tapping on the keyboard but nothing is changing on the screen. When I hit the enter button on accident it vibrated to tell me my password was incorrect but still the screen was frozen with my previous entry of the first 5 characters on the screen.
    I am becoming concerned that I may have a very expensive paperweight now.
    My husband has the same phone and his is working fine after the initial reboot.

  • Mi ipad 1gen crash safari and others application

    mi ipad 1gen crash safari and others application....what can I do?

    Hi...
    Reinstalled 10.7.3 from the Combo Updater from apples website.
    The only way to reinstall the Mac OS X or repair the startup disk running v10.7.3 Lion, is to use Lion Recovery The combo update does not do that.
    How much free space on the startup disk? Not enough free space can account for the problems with your apps.
    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure there's a minimum of 15% free disk space.
    and no web-pages will load.
    Try using OpenDNS as suggested here >  Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found
    Use OpenDNS for better speed, more security, includes anti phishing filters, prevents browser redirects, and it's free.
    Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
    Click +
    Enter these addresses exactly as you see them here.
    208.67.222.222

    208.67.220.220
    Then click OK.

  • Firefox 31.0 - slowness and script problems for using websites

    Since Firefox 31.0 is released, some technical problems of slowness and script problems to use
    websites have been noticed from mine. Sometimes it needs up to some minutes to load a website
    and sometimes there are error messages for an unanswered script.
    pemigabo123

    Hello FredMcD,
    thank you for your message.
    But your answer to my question at support.mozilla.org is not helpful,
    although it is a professional technical answer from a Top 10 Contributor
    from mozilla.
    It seems that there is a permanent unfixed problem always if a new
    version of mozilla is released. After all fixed problems of the earlier
    version of firefox, there is no problem at all.
    But if I am already working with the non-problem earlier version of
    firefox, then suddenly the problems of error messages, slowness and
    script errors are appearing, and if I have looked for the actual version
    of firefox, there was signed a new version and now I have known,
    aha a new vesion of firefox was released and it needs up some time
    for every new version until the error problems were fixed.
    Maybe it is combined with the plugins like flashplayer or shockwave.
    But a professional version of firefox should not sign up error messages,
    because of plugins, while working with these plugins.
    Another answer from another support.mozilla.member was for an
    overload problem, because of opening some windows of firefox.
    But to open many windows of firefox was already no problem with the
    earlier version firefox 30.0 or earlier, until the error messages are fixed.
    The same unfixed problems are since firefox 25.0 up to 30.0, but I was
    wondering for how long version 30.0 was actual in practical working.
    And since version of firefox 31.0 was released the same problems
    of error messages, slowness and script errors were appearing.
    At the moment it seems firefox 31.0 works alright.
    But only the following time shows if it works without error messages,
    slowness and sript problems or not.
    In hope to give a helpful answer to yours
    kind regards

  • HT4623 Sound and other problems with Ipad 3 after ios 6.1.3 update

    I purchased Ipad 3 last year and got problem of losing sound when I restored the Ipad throgh itunes. The sound came back automatically after I charged the device to 100%. Recently I got the same problem when the operating system was Ios 6.1.2 and then i got updated it to ios 6.1.3. The problem has not been solved while has been added up. Now the Ipad operation is slow, its either freezes and crashes frequently. Once it gets in sleep mode then it does not come back untill i press power button and home button togehter for sometime. I have checked all settings like mute and have restored the ios multiple times on two separate PCs but the problem is still there. Please help me what i need to do next.

    Try a reboot of your ipad. Hold the Sleep/Wake button and Home button simulataneously. Keep holding, ignoring the red slider, until the Apple logo appears. Release the buttons and let the ipad restart. A reboot often fixes numerous problems.
    Also are you aware that by suncing with a different computer it is likely the personal stuff you had on your ipad from your imac will be removed?
    The ipad is designed to sync with only one device.

  • Album app crashes and other problems

    I have my Z1 Compact for about 3 months now and I am countering bugs that effect the most basic uses of the phone.
    - First the Album app crashes everytime I go to "Folders" it been like that before the latest update, and afterwards.
    - The screen proximity sensor is not doing it's job. While I'm on a call sometimes my face touches different button like airplane mode, or while I'm getting a call and the phone is in my pocket my thigh touchs buttons and answer to calls.
    - The favorite contact tab sometimes is blank, although I do have favorites.
    - The Message app is slow and if I don't wait for it to complete sending a message and I go to the home screen, the app keeps it as draft although the message was sent..
    - Camera sometimes freeze but that's been discussed enough.
    - Other apps get stuck and crash sporadicaly. 
    I have to say that my 3 years old iphone 4 had less bugs, so its really hard for me to say I upgraded my smartphone.
    Sony better do something about your own apps, because this phone doesn't worth the price and has many compatitors.

    Since last version the Album cannot play gif. properly. Some image have enlarge and some pixels crack in both thumbnail preview and actual view . But the Favorite preview play just fine till I tapped to view and the same problem accure.
    So I gave up on new version and back to factory version which kind of irritating....
    Anyway I waited for this latest version. In this version the thumbnail preview look fine but when tapped to see the gif.still cannot played.
    This doesn't make any sense
    Why new version is worst than FACTORY VERSION
    Thank you for considering

  • KT880 Slow Screen Draw and other problems

    Is there a performance issue with the Kt880 boards that causes it to draw the screen slow, and causes the onboard LAN to fight with the USB controllers?
    Do I need to reduce the FSB of my RAM @333 to the FSB of the 2400+ @266?
    Maybe there are some BIOS tweaks that fix this problem?

    Not sure yet but I think I have sorted out most of the bugs.
    Changing the FSB speeds and removing a stick of ram does nothing, except to reduce the system performance slightly.
    Updated BIOS to latest. No change.
    Repair install after removing Symantec AV 9 Corp, and System Works 2005. helped some.
    Removing the NIC, uninstalling all Networking components then putting it all back really made an improvment.
    Then I turned on the SATA controller and let it install the PCI to IDE bridges and that helped. Removed the VIA CPU to AGP driver and it reinstalled it's self. slight improvment on the screen draw problem.
    Getting the USB to stop messing with the PCI bus was easy. I removed all the PCI cards RESET Bios data, reinstall VIA 4.53, added the PCI cards in one at a time then added on the 2 extra drives. Will change the drives to SATA next week.
    I think the whole problem comes from the install CD I made with NLight. Nlight has an option to remove components, turn off SFP and modify the UXTHEME.dll, and the TCPIP.sys file.
    After work Monday I will try a fresh install of Win XP OEM original on a spare drive, and update it to SP1, then SP2 and see how it goes.
    So far game play is excellent with good frame rates and no crashes. My team mates were complaining of poor frame rates on a custom BF1942 DC Map with frames of under 10FPS where I was at 65 to 100FPS.
    That poor KT600 I had was probably fine

  • HT1222 IoS 8 downloading is very slow and estimated time is upto 16 hrs? What to do?

    IoS 8 is not downloading in my mobile?
    I have iPhone 5 mobile what to do plz help?

    Hello there Sayed Shah Jehan,
    It sounds like your iOS update is downloading too slow. Take a look at this information from the following article, about troubleshooting over the air downloads:
    Resolve issues with an over-the-air iOS update
    Download takes a long time, or you can't reach update server
    iOS updates require a persistent Internet connection, and the time it takes to download the update will vary according to the size of the update and your Internet speed. You can use your device normally while downloading the iOS update, and iOS will notify you when you can install the update. To improve the speed of the download, avoid downloading other content.
    If you get a message that "an error occurred downloading iOS," try again later. If the issue persists, try updating your device in another network or use iTunes to update your device. Learn more about iOS updates.
    Update does not complete
    If you're installing the update and the progress bar appears to move slowly, be patient. The time an update takes depends on the size of the update and the number of files on the device.
    When you're updating over the air, keep your device connected to a power source so that it doesn't run out of power. If your device does run out of power, connect it to a power source and turn on the device to let the update or restore complete.
    If the update never completes and the progress bar hasn't moved for an extended time, try restarting your device. If you still see the issue after you restart, see what to do if your device appears frozen or won't start.
    You can also use iTunes on your computer to update your iPhone, so that is an option as well:
    Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch iOS software
    The 'Update your device using iTunes' section speficially.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

    Sterling

  • Crashes, sound loss, and other problems

    Hello,
    I have been having some serious problems over the past several months. In the past it was fairly manageable, but recently things have been getting worse.
    I have a 12-inch PowerBook G4, I bought it at the McGill bookstore in October 2004. The first problem was the apparently random crashes that Mac OS X (v.10.4.8) would experience from time to time. It was fairly infrequent at first so it didn't bother me too much (and I thought it was just some sort of glitch). But it persisted and came to be expected.
    What would happen is that my screen would darken and center box would appear telling me, "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button." (it would display this message in English, French, German, and Japanese for my convenience). After I restart the computer I get the message, "The computer was restarted after Mac OS X quit unexpectedly". At first it seemed to be linked to time; after a while it would just crash, sometimes after an hour or so, sometimes after as little as five minutes. (I fear as I write this that I will have to start over). More recently I've come to associate the crashes with movement of the computer; perhaps the battery (which is pretty much dead after so much use) is affecting the performance, I don't know.
    The next problem, which coincided with the crashes, was my clock being reset. I assumed this was directly associated with the spontaneous shutdown of the computer, yet though the crashes continued, the clock was not always reset (just about a third of the time). This was a pretty frustrating inconvenience given the frequency of the crashes at the beginning.
    The major problem that prompted me to take action was the lose of sound. One day, about a month ago now, my sound suddenly stopped working. At first I thought it was a hardware problem, but then I noticed the sound was still working with some things and just not others. For example, the sound increase/decrease indicator (the 'pop' sound when turning up or down the sound) stopped working, yet the startup sound still worked. I've found that Realplayer, MPlayer X 2, and Windows Media Player work fine but iTunes, VLC, and Quicktime don't. Most of the applications simply don't make sound but when I try to video in VLC I get the following error: "auhal: we cannot find our HAL component" or "auhal: audio-device var does not exist. device probe failed."
    Other minor errors I have come across include inability to detect the Airport card (remedied upon restarting the computer) and occasional seizing up of the keyboard (the letter keys, exclusively, were unresponsive for sometime before working again suddenly without need of restart).
    I've run diagnostic tools such as Disk Utility and the 'fsck' command in single-user mode, but nothing has been detected. It consistently comes up saying that everything is alright.
    I have backed-up all important files and programs (with the exception of my Firefox bookmarks, do you know how I can save those?) and am prepared to do whatever it takes to bring my computer back to working order. I need my computer for schoolwork and assignments so if I can fix it myself in anyway... I would prefer to avoid lengthly repairs if possible.
    Please let me know what my options are, and/or possible things I can do to repair these problems. This whole affair is, unsurprisingly, driving me crazy.
    One last thing, upon launching Microsoft Word, I get the following pop-up:
    Application Launch Failure
    The application "Word" could not be launched because of a shared library error: "3<Microsoft Word><Microsoft Word><MicrosoftLSLibZ>"
    I do not know whether this is linked to my other problems or not. This too, is something that has recently come up and is significantly affecting my work (I have had to switch to writing my essays on TextEdit).
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    try shutting down, remove the battery, carefully pull out AirPort card and reinstall it.
    maybe run hardware test included with CD kit

  • After upgrading to Lion 10.7.1 - iPhoto and other programs slow to open and other problems

    Am I alone - having lots of problems with 10.7.1.  iPhoto is slow and when I export photos it exists iphoto then I restart and sometimes it will works.  Safari is slower also. Sometimes it justs hangs and I have to force quit.  iTunes is also slower to open. Almost everytime it goes to a checking library for a long time. 
    Should I go back to previous version? Will I lose my purchase. I do not have disks for the upgrade.  I do not want to go back - I have a lot of data and always fear of losing it. 
    Think Apple knows about the problems or am I the only one and have some other problem?

    olegz,
    First, thanks for the clear graphics.
    Authorization seems to be the hangup here. But instead of dealing with the complications of conflicts in authorization, which might take several weeks to months to iron out - site by site - I urge you to follow a different path.
    It looks like you're using Chrome. For this site alone, use either Safari or Firefox, both of which are more likely to have plugins to deal with authorizing your site. Safari is already on your computer, but v.3 of Firefox is stable, too. Frankly, I can't tell you what specifically might be the problem here; but switching browsers will solve the immediate problem.
    Sound good? Not so good? Post in this thread so that I or others can solve your problem once and for all!

    Hi, Eric.
    1. You wrote: "...my screen would darken and center box would appear telling me, "You need to restart your computer. Hold down the Power button for several seconds or press the Restart button.""You are describing the following message:

  • ITunes Running Very Slow and other errors

    iMac, OSX 10.6.7, 2.66 GHZ, Intel Core 2Duo, 4GB Ram 1067 MHZ DDR3
    iTunes 10.2.2
    Media is on 1TB USB attached WD Drive / Mac OS Extended.  Music Folder is 83GB
    When I launch iTunes it tries to update Genius and gets the following error:
    "We could not complete your iTunes store request. An unknown error occured (4002).  There was an error in the iTunes store.  Please try again later."
    While viewing my music list in the iTunes browser if I select a star rating for a song, the spinning beach ball may spin for as long as a minute or longer.
    If I launch iTunes and do nothing but play music, it "seems" to do ok.  If I do something like change a rating that then invokes the spinning ball, from
    there on out everything is slow.  A change in songs can take a minute or more.
    I was just able to download / purchase an album from iTunes store.  It was slow and the spinning ball was active for the entire download.  I was able to
    use other applications but could not click anything in iTunes.
    After the download I am able to switch between any and all songs in my library without any noticible lag.
    I updated the rating on one of the new songs just purchased and it took a full 3 minutes for the spinning ball to stop.
    Any help is appreciated.

  • CR Developer 2008 extremely slow to open... and other problems

    Hi all,
    I'm having problems with Crystal Reports 2008
    When I click on the icon, the CR window opens straight away, but it takes a full 8 minutes before the Start Page loads. During this time, I can't click on anything (theres just an hour glass).
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling (twice) and I'm still having the problem.
    Also, once it eventually loads, I can't get to the Page Setup options. It just comes up with an "Out of Memory" error. I've tried removing all the printers as suggested elsewhere on these forums and reinstalled (as mentioned before) but the problem remains..
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Kyle.

    Disabling the 'Check for Updates' option has solved the issue of CR taking a long time to load but the Page Setup 'Out of Memory' error remains.
    I'm not sure I 100% understand what you're suggesting Graham.
    I have 6 printers installed, all work fine with other software. I have tried removing and reinstalling them but the problem remains.
    I've even removed all the printers, reinstalled CR with no printers installed (so it just has 'Fax Printer' and 'Microsoft Office Document Image Writer' in the Printers and Faxes window) and the problem still occurs.
    Any other suggestions?
