Why is my ipod touch 4G unusually slow?


So I have a 4th generation ipod touch. I updated it to IOS 5 from IOS 4.3.5 a couple months ago. It's been really, really, slow and laggy to the point where it's something I despise! I upgraded from 4.3.5 because my ipod was pretty slow and applications always crashed; I thought IOS 5 would fix all that, but, I was wrong!    With IOS 5 my ipod's battery life ***** (I charge it to 100% and then 15 minutes later it tells me there is only 20% left), it's super laggy (closing out of apps is painful and I have lots of problems with the lock screen. The screen freezes all the time), Safari is slow as a snail and so is other web-based applications, and apps crash constantly. Simply swiping from screen to screen is painful!   Then I upgraded to IOS 5.1 hoping it would fix things but...no...




I've tried a clean restore to factory settings, which didn't help at all. I make sure I close the apps I'm not using. I do not have so many apps or music. My wifi/internet connection is quite good. I don't know what is going on!



My ipod is second hand from my cousin and it WAS jailbroken, but not anymore. My warranty is also up. I've noticed other people have been experiencing the same issues but the thing is, my friend also has a 32GB 4th gen ipod touch on IOS 5.1 that runs smoothly and is very snappy and responsive, unlike mine. She has WAY more apps, photos, and music than I. She's had her ipod for longer than I have.






So does anyone know what is going on? Any other ideas? Thanks a lot!
