Default Unhide/Unlocking Universal Ext Rom ??

Hi

On my BA there were some tools to do this. I am assuming that they have not yet been created for the universal yet (unless I am missing something?)

I tried the BA ones (nothing to loose), to no avail.

On my BA, I always used to cherry pick what I wanted from the extended rom post install.

currently you can't unlock the extended rom, but with totakcommander you can type /Extended_Rom on the commandline and you'll see the content of the folder. You can start the .cab files from there or copy them to the SD card.
You can't copy anything back to the extended rom.
