Gingerbread ROM for the T-Mobile myTouch 4G leaked; is an official update coming?
If you are one of those people who enjoy tinkering with their smartphone, then you probably do take a peak at XDA-Developers' forum from time to time. One of the latest spicy ROM leaks over there is an Android 2.3.3 build for the T-Mobile myTouch 4G, and even though the software is not an official release, it does give us a hint that an update for the myTouch 4G to Gingerbread might be coming soon.
One of the noticeable tweaks that we see in the leaked ROM is a Quick Settings tab found in the pull-down notification bar. It lets you easily turn the smartphone's Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, cellular network, and hotspot feature on and off eliminating the need for having a dedicated widget for that. Other than that, the user interface experience looks and feels pretty much the same, as you can see in the video below.
User feedback regarding the leaked Gingerbread build has been quite mixed with some people reporting Wi-Fi issues and stability problems. On the other hand, others seem to be having no troubles at all and are saying that their myTouch 4Gs are running smoothly. If you feel like giving the ROM a shot, please, be careful and back up your data first. Feel free to share the experience with us in the comments below!
