i don't think it's gonna happen man. i don't see how it could be possible anyways. im soo fed up with android and winmo right now. i actually even got rid of 6.5 and went back to nfsfans 6.1 rom. come november im buying a palm pre and saying goodbye to winmo for good.

I had 1.1 working perfect with data, market, etc. and 1.5's been working fine. I even get GPS. Try deleting everything including your "data" file and setting up again from scratch. I've had that issue before where a new data file is required. You'll lose any downloads you've made but it'll get you started nicely. It works awesome now. Battery life is way longer and the apps are awesome

are you guys talking about loading the files on the memory card? If so I wanted to avoid that because it seems to difficult to keep loading form you sd card

Its not really difficult at all:

1) copy the rootfs.img, default, system.img, haret.exe, zimage to the root of your storage card
2) unzip resources.zip to root of storage card so you have a media folder in the root (for ringtones)
3) run haret.ext

Thats it. I'm using Zenulator's xROM2 and it is fantastic! Everythings working except for Bluetooth and I find it's as responsive (if not more) than Windows Mobile.

right now the best android experience on the vogue is zenulators hro themed cupcake builds, the fabled xROMs. As far as I know this is the first android builds that include bluetooth making it the most functional to date. I put a link to HARET in my 6.5 windows menu so its fairly easy to access my android.

It isn't perfect yet, but it is getting there.
