Love the program. Very helpful. =D>

Please consider adding a command to delete all *.REC files prior to loading Haret.exe. (As you probably know these files can prevent Haret.exe from loading correctly after updating the image files.) :headbang:

Just a thought after playing around a bit. How hard would it be to incorporate the disabling and re-enabling of the advanced power options as well (i.e., "On battery/external power: turn of backlight/device if not used for...")? Getting this functionality would be the ultimate! I noticed that without it, I couldn't get the backlight to stay off when I hit the power button. Thanks again and keep up the great work!

Should be easy enough. I'll try and do it in the next day or two, time permiting.

Also, would you want it to happen automatically, or would it be better to pop up a gui that lists the found files for review, and then you choose wether to delete them or not? I wouldn't want to be reponsible for people losing important files if something went wrong.

I certainly appreciate the offer, but if you'd like to make a donation please direct it to our hardworking Android developers:

I do accept donations (and would also be very grateful for any computer engineering job leads in San Diego/SoCal), but remember there are many other people who have gotten HTC Linux to this point: phh, cr2, makkonen, dzo, and others

Thanks! :)

ALL MY *.REC FILES ARE IN THE ROOT, HOWEVER MY HARET IS IN THE ROOT. THERE IS NO REASON THAT I AM AWARE OF TO KEEP THE FILES. AS A MATTER OF FACT IF ANDROID DOES NOT BOOT SUCCESSFULLY MANUALLY DELETING THE REC FILES ALWAYS RESOLVES THE ISSUE (FOR ME) REGARDLESS OF HOW MANY TIMES I UPDATE THE BUILD.

I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE NECESSARY TO POP UP A GUI. THESE PESKY FILES ALWAYS END IN REC WHICH DOES NOT SEEM TO INTERFERE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS.

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED ADDING THIS APP TO THE WINDOWS MARKETPLACE?

Hi everybody. I don't really have time to mess with this any more at the moment, but Reefermattness has offered to merge this with his utility (PPCGeeks thread, XDA thread), so I'd check there for any additional updates/requests/etc. Thanks!
