I tried resetting the network, re-started many times, have 4.3 GB of free space and nothing helps.
I downloaded speedtest HD which says my current server is Fremont CA, (I am in Florida), PingMS is 182, Download Mb/s is 11.33, Upload Mb/s is 1.27. I don't know what this means. When I looked at the "Diagnostics & Usage" Information, lots of "Crash" Exceptions.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!
iPhone 4S, iOS 6
Restore from your backup.
Is the problem still there?
If so:
Restore the phone as a new device. See if the problem persists. If it goes away. Rebuild it.
@ e.stocks
is that on WIFI with those speeds?
Edit: download this app if you are concerned about your overall phone permformance(not just internet) its called "System Status" and it will see whats slowing down your CPU.
Thanks for responding. I was hoping to avoid a total reset as upgading to 6.0 ended up being a nightmare, but I will surely keep that as a last resort.
Thanks,I appreciate your input.
No, not WIFI. I don't really know that I trust the speedtest because even after acceptable numbers, (according to AT&T Tech. Support), my browser was still super slow.
I downloaded System Status:
Disk Used 9.2 GB
Free 4.3 GB
CPU Usage fluctuates very quickly between 3.0 to 14.8
Idle fluctuates between 35% and 95.0%
Avg Load fluctuates 0.9, 0.85, 0.89
WIFI Info
Network Connected - Yes
Network MAC, IPSubnet Mask, SSID, BSSID all look ok ...(?)
Cell Info
All looks ok
I spoke with AT&T Tech Support and he said that for the last 11 months, my iPhone 4S was still in their system as an iPhone 3S and that this would have caused problems, he fixed his side; I restarted and also re-set network connections, ran speed test which was within AT&T's normal range, except the upload speed was slow.
AT&T also informed me that one nearby tower was not functioning properly.
The tech. rep. and I concluded that the best thing to do would be to wait a couple of days to give repair crews time to repair the tower, then, if the speed doesn't improve, call them back.
Thanks again for responding, I was ready to throw the darn thing out the window!
something is running @ idle if its 35% to 95%, when idle my cpu bounces from 2% to 7%
Edit: what is your avg speed with AT&T on 3G/4G( mine are horrible lol )
I turned off all apps except System Status, Idle is in the high 90%. It also says battery state is discharging and has a red dot by it.
Add strange to more strange, when I sent a text message to my daughter's iPhone, it said the message is from "Dad work" which is my husband's contact name ...my daughter deleted that particular contact and I sent another text, this time is showed sender as my husband's hotmail email address.
I think I'm just going to have to connect to iTunes and reset everything, as much as hate the thought of messing with all that.
Average speed on 3G/4G Download 3.4 and Upload 0.80.
Is this not also a IOS 6 Issue ?
If so don't even bother posting here, Apple is not listening and not fixing any issues. There might be an update early next year, but there is no info coming from Apple so no knows what is going on.
I think this is catching up to apple finally.
Funny, the tech rep I spoke with at AT&T happened to mention that he was of the opinion that Apple rolled out the upgrade to 6.0 a little too fast. He said they are still ironing out problems.
I backed up my iPhone, restored factory settings, then restored from back up. Now it maintains my home WIFI connection, one plus. Speed test did not improve using 3 or 4 G, but did improve when connected to WIFI, I'll call that a draw ...text messages sent to an android phone number showed correctly as being sent from me, but text to another iPhone on our account show coming from my husband's email address - FAIL!
I have been fussing with this piece of garbage since about lunchtime, I'm so fed up with it at this point that I could scream! I'm going to have to call AT&T again and figure out how to get them to verify that they didn't make matters even worse with whatever account setting was changed this afternoon.
My iPhone used to be my favorite toy, device of choice for just about everything. Now I look at it and wonder why.

Double check Settings>Messages>Send & Receive. Make sure the e-mail address there is correct.
My Hero! lol
I thought I had looked at every single setting trying to fix this, but I missed this one! Thanks a bunch!!
Now I'll just wait and see if the tower AT&T said is not working to be fixed and hope that speeds things up.
My iPhone 4s is so slow, no matter what I try.
