Iphone 6 Crash/Freeze/Delay

I have read many posts regarding iphone 6 crashing and they all seem to be ios 8 related.
I have an iphone 6 128gb and it seems to freeze, delay then crash mostly in the message app.(at least that's what I use the most) I notice this occurs more if many apps are open.
I really don't think its the hardware because I upgraded my iphone 5 to ios8 and had the same exact problem. I'm debating whether to go to the apple store and trade in for a new refurb one???? Or return to AT&T (I'm within 30 days) for a new one???? Or wait for a update???
In addition the search doesn't work in the message app. Really annoying!
Recap problems
1) Freezing /delay between apps
2) White screen waiting for messages to appear
3) Crashing when many apps are open
4) Search mode doesn't work in message app
Anyone else experiencing these issues?
Thanks.......

iPhone 6, iOs 8.1
Same problem here and it's super annoying! When changing music on the device and/or via headphones, it gets stuck or simply skips the selection. Apps are frozen and/or delayed frequently. iMessaging is awful, half of them go through, I have to manually resend as SMS/text. I constantly shut the apps down or power down the phone, hoping for a reset. Even what's app is wonky. After deleting and re-installing the app, "turn on Notifications' pop-ups keep appearing every time to go to the app to chat...
I upgraded to iOs 8.1 just before getting the 6 on my iphone 5 and don't recall this much trouble, albeit short.
Do we think it's just the software? I hope a software update comes out soon to resolve all of this.

Iphone Crashing and Freezing

Hi! I'm mostly looking to see if I have a lemon or if others are experiencing the same problems I have been having with my iphone. My iphone crashes and freezes several times daily. I have to reboot at least once a day, and often more than that. I've already sent the iphone to apple for repairs, and it came back with the exact same issue. I could live with the $200 dollar decrease in cost, but for that extra 200 dollars, I would love an iphone that is reliable!
Most of the other users I've seen here seem to be experiencing only intermittent crashing, and specifically of utilities...they usually find themselves back in the start screen. My phone is freezing...literally no brain activity. Please let me know if you have the same problems.

I am not sure that you should be subjected to the Freezing and Crashing on a continued basis as you describe.
As I have said before, Resetting and Restoring merely bypasses the fact that you are not fixing the problem but in fact putting a Band Aid on a mortal wound. These freezes are associated with a malfunction in the iPhone, whether it be software or hardware, it is a iPhone problem.
You should get down to the Apple Store and tell them what is happening and either get a replacement or assistance in helping you get your iPhone sent to Applecare.
I would not wait.

How can I stop my iPhone from freezing?

My friends iPhone keeps freezing, is there a way of preventing this form happening?

If a reset doesn't help, try these steps as needed, as described in the User Guide, Appendix B:
1. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
2. Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
3. Restore phone in iTunes as new, without using a backup.

If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware problem in the phone.

If your phone is jailbroken, you cannot get help here.

My old MBP (2005) often crashes, freezes or shows grey screen at start up. Also track pad often does not work. I have re fomatted the HD and reinstalled system but to no avail. Genius bar says possible faulty HD, but suspect logic board, any ides any body

My old 17" MBP (2005) often crashes, freezes or shows grey screen at start up. Also track pad often does not work. I have re fomatted the HD and reinstalled system but to no avail. Genius bar says possible faulty HD, but I suspect logic board. All checks out OK on the Apple Diagnostic bench. Can a Logic board go intermittant?? Any Ideas any body??

Ive repaired 1000s of laptops over the years (translate: diagnose and replace parts).
Its not that old, Ive owned 100s of laptops (most were free) ....some I still have are nearly 13 years old and still perfect, ....some extremely expensive ones died in under a year.
other than becoming obsolete at some point, there isnt really any "will spoil on" data like Milk for solid state computer parts, ....alas.
You can have a $5000 laptop die in 4 months, and a junker one keep kicking after 10 years.... Ive seen that firsthand countless times.
Common logic dictates that "very expensive = long life" in computers,..... but all the repair people will tell you just the opposite.
I know you have a gripe, I get that all too well honestly .

Iphone keeps freezing when I am going to end a call.

My Iphone sometimes freezes when I make phone calls on it. This only happens at the end of the phone call but it is really frustrating because I cannot hang up the call. I called my service provider and they told me it was because of the clear screen protecter I put on my phone. Could this be possible or are they just making this up to get me to quit complaining?

Hello Jennings Castle,
It seems your iPhone is slowing down and not responding frequently. To rectify this issue you may want to consider performing a restore on the device, and then restoring your data from a backup via iCloud or iTunes.
If the issue persists after restoring your backup, you would then want to consider restoring the device and setting it up as new. Below I have linked to article which offers guidance on both of these restore methods:

Iphone crashed after update it wont recognise itunes when plugged in and do anything besides display itunes needs to be connected

iphone crashed after update it wont recognise itunes when plugged in and do anything besides display itunes needs to be connected please help

"I bought it a couple of weeks ago"
Bought it from where? I ask because given what you have already tried, it would appear that this iPod needs either service or exchanging for another one.
Did you buy this as new from a reputable source?

My iPhone is freezing all the time

Ever since I upgraded to the 2.0 software my iPhone has been freezing upwards of 10 times a day... i only have 5 apps, and I still have 2GB of space on my 8GB
Is there anything I can do to stop my iPhone from freezing... also, when i try to reset it, the reset only sometimes works.

Try to restore it... I'm hating this iOS 5.1, everything was working much better before it was released. I shouldn't have upgraded...

IPhone 4S freezing

Hello, my iPhone 4S freezes everytime I watch a video and even sometimes when I look at pictures... I've tried everything I could think of and have read... Reboots don't work at all, at least I don't think so... The reboot will restart the phone but will have the same problem if I try a video again.... Please help!

You might need to try a backup and restore through itunes to clear the problem once and for all...

Silly question re: synching ipod touch 5g to itunes!!! (avoiding crashes/freezes) .

Hi All,
In order to prevent crashes/freezes when syncing an ipod touch 5g to itunes, does all of my music library have to be in mp3 format or will a combination of AAC and mp3 tracks be OK? I'm new to this apple thing and want to get it right BEFORE I attempt any synching. Have searched the ipod user guide to no avail. Many thanks......

Thanks for quick response.
Haven't even used the ipod yet (It's under the xmas tree - I know 'cos I had a sneaky peek!!!!)
Want to avoid potential problems - it took me a while to figure out how to create mp3 CDs.
So, no windows doesn't crash/freeze etc.
Will check out the link though, just to be on the safe side before the ipod gets its first fire up.
Thanks lllaass
