Did a search, but not coming up with anything....

Are there any known problems with the messaging program and other apps? Of all of the programs on my MDA/Wizard, that one gives me the most problems. It:

- looses settings
- freezes up
- has intermittant problems sending email
- wont launch from the Today Screen, the Start menu OR the designated hardkey.

I have to soft reset my device atleast 2x a day when the msging craps out and wont respond.

Any ideas?

thats odd, do you have any 3rd party apps related to do with messaging installed? the only messaging problem i've encountered is sending a message to a group.

Hi Thx for responding!

No, other than Agile, I have nothing else and my set up is not fancy - I'm only pulling my Yahoo pop3 to the device.

It's just so weird - no other program is giving me these problems. :x

what bugs me with messaging is that you can't move between the To: field and the Message body itself with tappin on the screen pressing TAB or the down keys just scrolls down the display but doesn't move you to the field very counter intuitive IMO. Hampers stylus free operation.

I have had some problems getting it to launch from the today screen or the hardware button.

I have the same problem with my t-mobile MDA> I called tech support and they said that it was a known problem that they are hoping to fix it withan upcoming ROM update but they didn't have a date. So, they are sending me another handset. -I don't know why as I'm sure that it's going to have the same problem.

Also, I have a qtek9100 as well and it has never had this problem.

That's something to note - that it is rom related. I wonder if flashing to a newer rom would stop it from happening all together.

I had this problem too. I found that it was caused when I enabled IE smooth scrolling in the registry.
