New Gingerbread package for G2 surfaces online
This isn't the first time a Gingerbread image for the T-Mobile G2 has been made available online, but according to build numbers and the original poster, the one available now over in the XDA forums is finally the real deal.

The title just about says it all folks. If you've been flashing CyanogenMod nightlies, or any other Gingerbread ROM for that matter, you no doubt know by now you need a Clockwork Mod recovery of version 3.0 or higher to do so.

Just the other day, someone asked me for instructions on "unrooting" their HTC G2. Whether it was because they simply missed the good ol' days, or needed to send in their gadget for warranty repairs, I dont know. But I didn't have a link to a step-by-step guide handy, only a few Google search suggestions. If I'm asked again, I'll know exactly what to say: Check out...

There is a Free version and a Premium version that runs $4.99.

Near the beginning of October, a "think tank" thread was started at xda-developers with the purpose of overcoming the problems surrounding the hacking of T-Mobile's G2.

HTC has a couple of goodies for the hacking sector of the Android community today in the form of source code releases. Not only did the source code for the G2 and Desire Z go live today, but so did a maintenance release for the Incredible. Unfortunately, this won't do much for obtaining permanent root on the G2. Once that nasty nand problem is taken care of, and... Read more » [PhoneDog] Dogfight! Epic VS G2
