iPhone iMessage intermittent on iOS 6

[arranjenks]

So, since updating my iPhone 4s to iOS 6 my iMessage has been extremely intermittent. It literally keeps turning itself off, messages are failing to deliver even when connected to WiFi.

It happens at home & at work.

Anyone else having this issue?

I had it and I had to restore the settings to factory. settings only and then it works

Short of a reset to factory settings I've found making sure iMessaging is not left minimised helps. It doesn't seem to keep its connection. So, by closing after each use this helps. I've been doing this since I logged out of iMessaging at least 1/2 doz times and even changed my apple id pw as this had ceased to be recognised. I get fewer send failures now and don't have an inactive send button so much. Having said this its all a bit of a work around as iMessaging isn't behaving as it once did. If over time not resolved will do factory reset. All the best.
