Later this month I am flying to LHR from the US and my friend is
flying in from Saudi Arabia. Our planes are about an hour apart early
morning arriving.

We come in at terminals 2 and 3.


Er, afraid you don't - at least one of you doesn't - terminal 2 closed
last year for rebuilding.

Questions:

Will be both go thru the same customs/immigration area?


No, not if you're coming in at different terminals.


Arrivals for T1 and T3 are probably separate. T4 and T5 are extremely
separate!

In any event where would be a good place to meet, especially where
there is a place to sit down (the hips are not working like they use
to).


The arrival area at the terminal of whichever flight is scheduled to
come in later.


We intend to go to Russell Sq via the Piccadilly line.

Also, should we be able to text anywhere in the airport - cell phone
coverage?


Oodles of mobile coverage no problem.


Indeed.
