anyone got mortring to work on their dopod818?

I tried to install mortring yesterday day, the next thing i knew everything went haywire. I couldnt uninstall it neither anything else. In the end I resorted to hard reset. Wasnt so painful as my Dopod was still new, and I had a backup.

I can't be sure if it was mortring that caused it, but it was the last thing I did to my Dopod before the pain.

which version u installed ?
0.97 didnt screw up mine
