Help Text lag

Since switching to the EVO, my text messages take longer to arrive, and if friends send multiple messages, it'll take part 2 or 3 an extra few minutes to arrive, leading me to make stupid/embarassing replies when I don't have all the info yet. The lagged messages even come in with old timestamps, and thread themselves back above my replies.

I never got lagged texts on the Moment, and this thing's way faster. What's going on? My bro's EVO does the same thing.
 
Do you have a lot of old messages? I have found, if you delete a lot of old messages, the messaging program will run faster. Also, you should call sprint about this. They can put a trouble ticket in, and see if the towers in your area arent sending the texts to your phone in time.
 
I just got the phone, so I maybe have 100 texts across all threads.

I'm not really sure what the priority setting is for (in messaging options), but I changed it to high to see if that changes anything.

Edit: as I suspected, making it high priority just makes my texts have a ! next to them. No help. Bugger.
 
Also update your prl and data profile. Check for system updates too. Sprints network has been hit or miss buggy across the nation. Make sure and call in for the trouble ticket as well
