Default [Q] Android for LG Fathom? Haret?

So I unfortunately have an LG Fathom and have found that my phone is boring. I was wondering if there's any way to port Android to it, like the HTC phones do with haret? When I try to run Haret it fails to load Android and I have to reboot (even after changing screen resolution settings).

I assume it's possible, but it seems like nobody has this phone. Verizon acts like it was never made. I mean, the LG Ally has the same exact hardware, so it has to be do-able...right?

Also, I'm still on the base rom as I prefer the cab file that enables windows messaging over their built in messaging (despite message threading being implemented in updates). Is there a changelog of the different revisions up somewhere?

thanks in advance.

Edit: Trying this rom for the HD2 on the Fathom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=782301

Haret should work on the fathom and the rom should be compatible with the snapdragon proc in the Fathom (same clock speed). When I tried using the release for the Touch Pro it didn't work.

My only question is what to set the mtype, ramaddr and ramsize to? Ramsize is 256mb, so in hex that's 0x10000000 right?

Edit2: Trying haret when only modifying ram size gets to "loading kernel" and then is unable to continue.

It was an HTC messaging cab, forgot exactly which one it was. I think it was posted on here somewhere.

Just thinking about it, it might need a different ramaddress but i'm not sure what it could be.

Also, A month ago I was frustrated using the arcsoft sms so I spent a day with the registry and finally figured out how to revert the messaging back to winmo's default threaded one
Just run UseWinmoSMSApp.reg UseTMAILforSMS.reg

Though this is just a rough work around, it's still possible for arcsoft to randomly come up, and I didn't get send a text message from the contacts to work it just opens up in the messaging app. I'm curious as to whether this htc messaging cab does it better
