IPhone 6 has become unusable, update didn't solve it. Random crashes etc

Hi all,
My iPhone 6 has become unusable.
apps keep crashing, e.g. the native Mail app won't even open.
Whatsapp doesn't show pictures sent
Other apps e.g. web browser Open then bounce straight back to the home screen
There was an update waiting to be installed, the latest iOS version so I tried that but it was in vain.
Any ideas on what to do to resolve this please before a cumbersome factory reset?

That is simply not true.  There is a 10+ page thread on this very same subject in the Comcast forums on DSLR.  
Some customers on every major ISP in the US (Comcast, TWC, FIOS) are openly complaining about Netflix issues.  From what I can tell it depends where you are and time of day.  The ISPs are letting their CDN ports get saturated and are making no moves to fix it.  Kind of makes sense when you consider they all have video streaming services of their own and that they compete with Netflix.
Other people think this is a Netflix issue...i.e. if all the ISPs are having issues with Netflix is must be Netflix's problem.
The ISPs have been remarkably quiet on this issue.  The only recent post I have seen anywhere is in the Comcast Forums:
"We are aware of these threads and the concerns expressed here. We are actively engaged. It is sensitive and we can't really say more than that right now.
JL
National Engineering & Technical Operations"
http://forums.comcast.com/t5/Basic-Internet-Connectivity-And/Is-comcast-working-on-the-Netflix-issue...
So take it for what you will.  IMHO this is about all about money and the ISPs are to blame.
Having said all that, CableVision is the one of the very few that joined Netflix OpenConnect, so if Netflix is that important to you moving to them is a very good idea.  Most people don't have that option.

  • I am using iphone 4s ios6.1.2 ...my iphone has become too slow once i have updated from ios 5.1.1..can anyone help me to make my iphone perform batter

    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red  to delete apps from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    If still a problem restore with your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

    Music on my iPhone has become very difficult to edit since upgrading to 5.0.1.  If I simply want to delete some songs, it insists on a complete sync cycle after EACH one I delete.  This is so annoying… (I have over 400 Christmas songs I won't need until next year) I have also noticed it randomly keeps updating album artwork…adding more time to each sync.  Is there some way I can turn off the syncing until I have picked and deleted all the songs I want?

    The cause was probably a USB glitch during a sync or when copying. The music resides on the phone in separate files. A master file contains a database with an index to the music, an entry for each track and a "pointer" to the file containing the track. Somehow the index got corrupted with duplicate entries. It's likely that the music itself wasn't duplicated, but some tracks had more than one entry in the database. I've seen this happen when syncing (rather than manually managing) also. In my case deleting the track from the Music tab in iTunes, syncing, then adding it back fixed it.
    A related problem I've seen is an album may be split, with some tracks in each of 2 or more album entries in the listing. Fixed the same way.

  • Safari 4x has become unusable!

    I've been using Safari since 2005 and have loved it up until v4. It's always been blazingly fast and stable.
    Since v4.0, and with every update since, Safari has been getting slower and slower, more unstable (crashes where it never crashed before v4) and some pages just refuse to load but stall out.
    I have tried Open DNS like this forum has suggested. That seemed to really help the page loading with 4.1.1. But Safari has kept crashing. A lot (and yes, I send in the reports).
    I still use Open DNS and now with the new 4.1.2 I am back again to slow page loading. Today I clicked on a site, waited 20 seconds while watching the beach ball spin, decided to launch Camino, and Camino launched and loaded the page while Safari kept spinning it's wheels. Lately I've been using Camino more and more. It reminds me of the Safari of old.
    What gives? I'd really like to know. I see the app size getting bigger and bigger for Safari (currently 79 MB) while the svelte Camino comes in at 47 MB and Firefox at 53 MB.
    Oh and please don't tell me about "third party add-ons". I don't have any. Nothing has changed in years except for the updates to Safari, and v4 has become unusable for me. I've also got the latest Java, Flash etc. and I make sure everything is always updated with the latest software.
    Is anyone else experiencing this? Is it my PBG4? Why do other browsers perform better for me while Safari has slowed down and become so unstable?

    HI,
    But Safari has kept crashing. A lot (and yes, I send in the reports).
    Good thing to send in the reports, but if you want help to stop Safari from crashing, then post a crash report here so we can help you.
    What gives? I'd really like to know. I see the app size getting bigger and bigger for Safari (currently 79 MB) while the svelte Camino comes in at 47 MB and Firefox at 53 MB.
    Safari works with iTunes, so yes, the app size will increase where third party browsers aren't effected.
    If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash information.
    Now copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply here. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.
    I see the app size getting bigger and bigger for Safari (currently 79 MB) while the svelte Camino comes in at 47 MB and Firefox at 53 MB.
    How much free disk space on your PBook? Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you always have a minimum of 10% to 15% free disk space at all times.

  • I am looking to upgrade to a new iPhone.  Is it possible to then disable the phone capabilities of my old phone so I can give it to my teen for use as an iTouch?  or does the old iPhone just become unusable which would be such a waste.

    Safari has become unusable—it freezes, links are unclickable, then I get "Web pages are not responding..."
    Safari has been my favorite browser for a long time. Nothing against the others but I have found it faster and better. Now I can really no longer use it. This has been going on and getting worse for atr least  few weeks. Anyone know why?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • App Store has become unusable

    The App Store recently has become quite unusable:
    - no more "Latest iPhone Apps" category
    - no more "Latest free Apps" category
    - "New" panel doesn't show the latest Apps in the current category
    - especially in the category "Games" there's no way to see the latest Apps
    - Apps updates don't show up as new releases anymore

    Yep. Use this feed in your browser to see the new apps:
    feed://appshopper.com/feed/?filter=new
    I'm not going to the app store anymore. The main reason I was going in the app store was to see the new apps, and now Apple has remove the link. After the downgraded update of iMovie, it's the second stupiest move from Apple.
