1. I deleted everything from my SD Card card (any previous builds) completely
2. Formatted my SD card to FAT32
3. Followed 1st post and copied everything under SD card root
4. Ran Haret and after 5 mins. Android loaded fine.
5. It took 3 attempts to finally setup Android since it was resetting @ the Google account setup screen.

What's Working
1. Incoming/Outgoing call works
2. Data 3G works
3. Google map shows my location
4. Market works ( and I am installing apps like crazy!)
5. Battery status (as mentioned by OP) is semi working (one point it shows 100% but my battery were <20% and after couple of second it shows 70%)
6. Installed couple of Apps and they are working fine (except flixter where I was not able to sync it with my Netflix and Facebook acc. for some reason)
7. Downloaded Google Voice and made calls and it worked seamlessly
8. Under 'Email' app., setup my other email accounts, such as Gmail and Yahoo (for Yahoo I had to do manual setup since Android doesnt like yahoo for some reason. Also had to change my region to Asia to make POP3 acc. work as none of the other POP3 acc. gives you free POP3 forwarding.

Will update once I will play it further.

Please ole great one, tell me how did you get google voice to make outgoing calls? = installed 3 different versions and none will call out. Help please

Installed the App and when setting up for the 1st time, it asked whether I want to make all the outgoing calls using Google voice or it will ask you every time you make a call. I chose 2nd option. Then I tried to make outgoing call and on dialpad it asked me whether to use google voice or not, I chose yes and everything was fine. I used the very 1st app for google voice when I searched for 'Google Voice' App.

For everyone without google maps, make sure you turn on wifi in the settings and it should pick right up -- or at least mine did. I know I read this in there from somebody else but can't seem to find the post now to give credit.

Weird, speakerphone was working for calls with the previous release, but now it is not. Also live wallpapers are gone, anyway to get starfield back? I think we need a live wallpapers installer or something?

otherwise, it's great to have market working!

i think u would have to make an android folder or an andboot folder on the root of the sd card and copy the androidapp folder into it and run haret.exe from the root of the sd card, i hope that works.

Was it GV?

Edit: does your Google Voice call a 916 area code to connect the call?

It says Google Voice ( from Google Inc.). It's the official one.

When I make a call the google voice first shows that it is dialing the initial number I want to dial, but then it shows that it is calling google @ a 916 area code number to connect the call.
Does your use the same 916 number?
