Yes we need to know whether it's software related or a problem using apps.

I have had the message when data wasn't enabled when receiving picture messages as they won't download over wifi.

Sounds to me like there is something that it is trying to download and is failing rather than a general download failure.

Maybe you need to find out what is downloading or backup and factory reset. It would annoy the hell out of me.

Good news - The factory reset would have cleared whatever it was trying to download.
