When I go to open either handcent or the stock messenger app it takes about 30 seconds for all of the message threads to show up within the app. This seems to happen about 50 percent of the time. Is this happening to anyone else? Any fixes?
I can confirm that this method does in fact fix the problem (at least for me);

Try it out and report back!
Been about 20hrs since I did purge and re-sync contacts with no Facebook sync and no more slowness. Thanks!
I've disabled the Facebook sync and it still has problems. I'm guessing only a hard reset will fix this issue
Agreed. I tried disabling all my contact syncs (Facebook, Twitter, GroupMe, etc.) one at a time for several days each and none of that fixed the problem, until I followed the directions above to purge all my phone contacts and re-sync from Google.I assume that you followed the full instructions here -> http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-4g...ay-need-hold-off-8-29-12-a-2.html#post4989279
If all you did was disable the Facebook sync, that alone will not fix it. You need to disable the Google sync, clear the contacts data and restart the device and turn oly Google contact sync back on leaving the Facebook sync off.
