My iphone 4s keeps freezing when I go into my messages.

My 4s keeps freezing when I go into my messages and there are times when I wont get text messages till 20 minutes later. Not sure what to do, I think the delayed text times might have to do with the sprint network, but I'm not sure why my phone keeps freezing.

1.  If you are really on iOS 7.1, you may wish to try upgrading to 8.1.2 which is the latest (basing this on your signature).
2.  If updating the phone doesn't help, is this only when you connect to a specific wifi network?  Or all wifi networks (including public with no password)?  If it is ALL wifi networks, you may have a hardware problem.  Genius bar would be the next step.

  • Ever since I downloaded ios7, my iPhone 4s keeps freezing when trying to connect to wifi. Help?

    My iPhone 4s keeps freezing whenever I try to connect to wifi. It either won't even open wifi, and when it does, it'll freeze as soon as wifi is open. I can force quit the settings area, and it unfreezes the iPhone, but it doesn't fix the settings area, which is still frozen. I have come to points when I can connect to wifi, but it only lasts about 30 seconds before dropping the connection. This happens everywhere, even at home, when I'm right next to the router. What should I do?

    Try resetting your settings. Settings > General > Reset.
    I had this happen shortly after updating and it worked when I reset.
    Doesn't delete anything though.

  • My iphone 4 keeps freezing when making calls and the speaker is going

    my iphone keeps freezing when i make calls and the speaker is really quiet even at high volume

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue(s) are resolved.

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps freezing when I lock the keypad

    I have a 32gb iPhone 3gs and it regularly freezes when I lock the keypad. It sometimes comes unfrozen after a while (usually a long time) and sometimes doesn't come back at all and I have to reset it. I find that it consistently and nearly 100% of the time freezes when I lock the keypad when I have accidentally left the wifi connection on. Can somebody please help me and tell me how I can fix this issue? when the wi-fi is off it doesn't usually freeze, the problems mainly when the wifi is active. Thanks guys

    Try restoring the phone. Do a backup of your data on iTunes by syncing it to iTunes (or right click your iPhone and click backup) and then do a restore by clicking "restore". Do not disconnect the iPhone until it is done. After it is done, iTunes will prompt you if you want to restore from backup. Click your backup and let it run through it's process again. See how that works. It just could be a software issue.

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps freezing when I try opening a text.

    I have an iPhone 3GS which I updated to iOS 5 a few days ago.
    The update has been fine up until now.
    When I receive a text or email notification, I "slide to read" and as soon as I slide the button across to the right the iPhone freezes and I have to hold down the home button and lock button for it to restart.
    It has done this 5 times now.
    Any ideas as to why this is happening?

  • IPhone 4S keeps freezing when making/ending a call...

    Ever since I udated my iPhone 4S to IOS 6.0.1, sometimes when I start to make a call, the screen says "CALLING..." for a long period of time.  When I hit END CALL, it just freezes up and continues to say "CALLING...".  The same thing happens when trying to end a call.  I press END and the screen says "CALL ENDING...".  The call will actually end, but the screen still says "CALL ENDING..." and I am unable to make another call.  The only cure I've found for both these problems is to restart my phone.  It's getting more frequent and I'm getting extremely frustrated with the whole thing!  Anyone have a suggestion or a fix?  Thanks in advance...

  • When syncing my iPhone, it keeps freezing when it updates purchases...***?

    I get the color wheel and it won't continue past this stage (stage 3 of 6).  I really don't want to do a full restore cuz I have no idea what I'll lose......

    I may have misread your post.  If you are trying to remove the photos synced from your computer you should be able to do this by unchecking Sync Photos on the Photos tab and syncing.  If you did this and the photos are still there then something failed.  You might try rechecking Sync Photos, syncing, then uncheck Sync Photos and syncing again to see if it works this time.

  • My iPhone keeps freezing when I am streaming videos.  It never used to do that. How do I fix this.

    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:

  • So my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    so my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?

    I got the same problem. The percentage of getting this problem is around 10% of all my dial/receive calls.
    The problem usually appears when I receive calls. The phone app will freeze, and I cannot dial or receive calls even I closed the phone app, however, most other apps work properly.
    Once this problem happens, I will not be able to turn off the phone by holding sleep button, the only way I can get rid of it is holding sleep and home button at the same time to reset the iphone.
