Forum user MikeyCollins has had his XDA2 reflashed by O2 with UK ROM version 1.66.

This is newer that any official user available O2 UK ROM, as the latest build on the UK site/for UK customers is 1.60.50

This new ROM, at very early inspection, features a ClearType tuner much like some IPAQ's have etc.

What he wants to know, and I do too, given that I would like to install it, is how do you 'reverse engineer', if at all, the ROM, so that he can copy it from his phone, to PC, so this can be tried out by others?

Can it be done? Do any of you clever chaps know how?

Interesting! Do you mind exctracting this cab file (Clear Type Tuner) from Ext ROM and post it here?
