Can't send/receive while device is in standby...!

[gregmarsh]

Among a large and growing number of frustrations I have with my 9100 after only a day of use is that POP3 e-mail sending & receiving does not work correctly when the device is in standby.

It all works ok while the device is on (via either of WLAN or GPRS), but when in standby, nothing sends or receives.

I had a vaguely similar problem with my XDA II before, which was that in standby it operated so slowly that it would take 5 minutes just to connect, log in and lot out (i.e., even if there were no messages to collect).

Other pressing problems with the 9100 include:
- extremely poor Skype performance (even with the v1.2 Beta)
- device frequently crashes (esp. coming out of stand-by)
- no back-up support with ActiveSync 4.1

I've done any number of hard resets to no avail.

Perhaps there is a less buggy ROM than the one I have (1.1.9.3 / 16 Sep 05)? If so, where would I get that and how would I go about installing it (in simple steps, please!)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm nearing the point where I just send the unit back...

Even if nobody can help, I'd love to know if others have had the same issues?

I'm also having problems with the device regularly crashing when I bring it out of standby. Not sure, but this may be related to the Wireless LAN attempting to connect (it works fine while the unit's on).

A --> have others found the Wizard with 1.1.9.3 to be stable?

B --> have others had problems with GPRS send/receive in stand-by mode?
