Hence the reason you have to soft reset to get back to WinMo - there's nothing of it remaining when you run haret.exe!

So if you *think* it's running better because of your ROM... you're probably just experiencing what is called the "placebo effect"! Gotta love it.
hate to say your wrong but, you are. the available mem in winmo does indeed effect android. i just tried 3 different test 2 of the 3 failed to load android and cause the phone to reset. the first was off a fresh reset, nothing running other than winmo(used task manager to kill everything running). used resco file explorer to open sd card and run haret. android booted normally with this method. next, reset phone and allowed everything to start normally. this time i opened up several apps in winmo that i know remain open according to task manager. i opened enough apps to get the mem usage up to 68%. then attempted to boot android. same as before, opened resco to sd card and run haret. got the scrolling as normal then, screen went black and phone reset. 3rd test was the same as the 2nd but only 65% mem usage. again, phone failed to boot to android and again rest back to winmo.

so, if winmo has no effect on android then how do you explain this? juse in case you dont believe me, tonight when i get home i can make a video to prove this. it was repeatable time and time again.

forget to add, this is a crippled VZN Touch Pro running SSK's 6.1 build 21054
