IPhone 4S problem? Delay in receiving texts?

Lately, my iPhone has been getting very slow. The last few weeks, I would text someone and put the phone down. After not getting a response in quite a while, I would turn the screen on and the phone would immediately notify me of a new text from that person. I look into the time received of that text and it says it's from 20 minutes ago. Why does my phone update me of the text right when I turn the screen on? As if it refreshes only if I wake the phone up? Any thoughts"

Added (1). I have held the power and home button. Nothing. Just restored it a couple weeks ago also.

Why can't I view apple Id on iPhone 4?

I'am trying to view my apple Id on iPhone cause I'm unable to download any apps on my iPhone and I think it may have something to do with the iTunes Store country setting. I have tried logging in but it loads and then flashes back to the iTunes&apps options. I don't think there's anything wrong with my iTunes account because I use the same for my iPad and its works.

Does downloading an app from itunes use data?

If I download an app from the computer and it downloads onto my iPhone will it use my phones data to download it? I know it used data if you download an app from the app store but will it if you download one from iTunes on the computer with your phone connected?

How to bypass my iphone passcode?

Ok so my friend disabled my iphone for an hour after she changed the passcode but she doesn't remember what it is. The hour is up in a few minutes but i'm afraid of entering the wrong passcode again to make it disabled for even longer. After the hour is up is there any way i can get into my phone without entering the pass code? I have an idea of what the passcode might be but i'm scared if it is wrong that my iphone will then be disabled for even longer. Or does anyone know a way that i can at least make the disable time go back to 5 minutes? Like if i turn my phone off for a certain amount of time will the phone forget it was disabled and allow me to guess again before it gets disabled for five minutes. I really need help! Thanks.

Added (1). This is my iphone. I did not steal it and it doesn't belong to anyone else. Thats why i care about unclocking it
