Q: Siri not setting reminders, opening apps, etc

After a recent wipe and restore from iCloud, Siri is no longer working consistently on my iPhone 6, running iOS 9.2.

 

I've run thru all the usual remedies (restart, restore, wipe settings, Siri on/off, etc.) with no luck. Apple even replaced my phone, as it seemed to be having touchscreen response issues, but the problem stayed with the iCloud restore.

 

Any ideas?

 

WON'T:

- won't open apps ("You don't seem to have an app named <app name>.")

- won't set reminders ("Uh, oh. Something's wrong. Can you try again?")

- won't locate people with Find My Friends

- won't set a timer

- won't place calls

- won't create a text

- won't show photos

- won't give directions

- won't post to Twitter or Facebook ("I can't post this, because I can't fi a good connection."

- won't play music

- won't create emails

- won't set alarms

- won't provide addresses

- won't create Notes

- won't turn on Settings like Bluetooth

- won't play Podcasts

 

WILL:

- will create calendar events

- will check sports scores

- will make a reservation with Open Table

- will search for movies, but says they're far away

- will check weather
