The problem seems to be getting worse, I don't know what triggers it but right when I need it the messages app freezes to load and gives me a new message screen, then when I type in my contacts name it goes to no name. I have to reset my phone at least a minimum of 5 times a day to remedy the problem. Now I'm contemplating if I need to carry my iPad instead of my phone for reliability. Hope for a fix soon.

Thanks. So far so good. 🙂
You're welcome
The problem came back this morning when i tried to txt, the message app froze and I had to restart. 😮
Restore as new, without restoring a backup.
Restore then don't restore from iCloud ?
set up as a new phone? Won't I lose all my stuff?
Yes, you will lose your data, but you also may lose the corrupted data/settings that are causing the Messages app to freeze. If the phone works without restoring the backup, you know that the problem is in the backup. If Messages still freezes, there may be a hardware issue that needs evaluation by Apple.
Note that apps and Music media can still be re-downloaded or synced from iTunes on your computer without restoring the backup.
please help me to fix my iphone6 touch id. I cannot use it. 😟
Your post has nothing to do with the topic of this thread.
OK.. so I restored but from iTunes. So far no problems. Thanks.
SAme thing is happening to me and reset the phone did not solve anything.
And I got the 6 with maximim capacity
Apple even changed my phone for a new one, AND THIS ONE IS HAVING EXACTLY SAME PROBLEM, EVEN WORSE.
It has to be something in the phones, but it is very frustrating as I manage my business and 90% of my clients contact me by text, I know I'm losing client every day because they never hear from me.
HOnestly, I do not know what to do, I'm seriously thinking on change to a Samsung, this iphone is making my life and business miserable
