I just loaded the PK Black Dual ROM and I love it for the most part, but there are two issues that are really driving me crazy. When I open just about any e-mail message in Outlook, it takes an unreasonably long time before I can read the message-- it shows "loading message" at the bottom of the screen, and during this time the phone is more or less locked up. It never did this before. I have two e-mail accounts set up, one an ActiveSync connection to an Exchange server and the other an IMAP connection to Gmail. It does this on both accounts. It does this for each message. I don't have a lot of messages in my Inbox for either account-- only about 15 in the Exchange account and 30 in the Gmail one.

The other issue I have is with the browsers, Opera and IE both. It takes a long time before I can actually use them. After they start, they just sit there for up to a minute before they start downloading pages. After that initial delay, they work fine, until the next time I open them.

Does anybody have any ideas? It's driving me nuts. I'm on AT&T's network in the SF Bay Area.

Thanks

Sounds to me like you need to reinstall - I have many emails in my Outlook and it reacts instantly - as do Opera and IE - the only delay is when I change from 3G to HSDPA and that is a 5-10 second delay

The 3G thing may be the key-- I was in a GPRS area last night and suddenly it got very responsive. When I went back into a 3G area it slowed down again. It seems like it is taking a very long time to switch, but I don't understand why Outlook would slow down as well, since the messages are stored locally after being downloaded from the server.
