(load time on first run was about 3-4 minutes, now it loads in about a minute). I then took out the card from my phone and copied all my files (excluding the HTCTPCDMA... folder) back onto my card, and then put the card back in my phone. So far it is working fine, Android is ok (I can make and receive calls in Android, no data yet) and all the other apps on my card for WinMo are working fine too. I sure would love to have a dual boot rom for this. That would be awesome.
By the way, did anyone notice that Android runs better on the stock rom (WinMo 6.1) than on a cooked rom. I have to TP2s with me right now, 1 is running Mighty's 2/4/10 rom and the other sprint stock. I have Android on both, the functionality and integration on the stock rom is almost flawless while the custom rom has hiccups. I wonder why? Any ideas anyone?

I'm by no means a dev but i would imagine that it is because before haret runs, even if you are using the GenY Dual Boot, windows mobile is completely loaded. Then haret runs on top of that and boots into android. If even part of any program related to winmo stays in memory it will lessen the performance of android. So even the tiniest memory leak will have an effect. A barebones winmo build will use less resources than a buggy winmo 6.5 build would...
