It goes back to the previous screen, but is unresponsive for anywhere from 10 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how many text messages are in that thread. That never happened with the 6.1 ROM. It is annoying as heck, but isn't a deal breaker.

On that last note, does anyone know of a good way to prune old text messages and call logs? I need to keep recent ones, while discarding the old. Windows Mobile doesn't seem to have anything aside from deleting them all. Thanks!
I don't know how to delete just the older messages, but a workaround for the slowdown is to do this: For threads you know will lag when you exit, hit your call-end button instead of of "OK". This will take you back to the Home screen. Use task manager to close your SMS app, then hit your mail key to go back in. As weird as this sounds, its a LOT quicker than waiting on it to stop grieving over the fact you dared to have a few messages in a given thread.
