For those of you still clinging to your T-Mobile HTC myTouch 4G like me, you’ve probably been anxiously awaiting the day when you’d hear CyanogenMOD 9 mentioned in the same sentence as your device. Well, I have good news for you my friends — that day has arrived, thanks to our good buddy febycv, the Ice Cream Sandwich master and lifeline for the MT4G community thus far.
Some of you may be familiar with feb and his well-known work around the XDA forums, but for those who aren’t, this guy definitely deserves a thanks and a beer. This offering from feb is in the form of an alpha CM9 port and boy, did it make my night to see it available.
The ROM is still in alpha stages, so there are a few kinks that need to be worked out. Have a look below to see if anything is a deal-breaker or not before deciding if you want to proceed.

Still with me? If so, you’ll also want to make a quick backup of your files, especially if you have anything on your phone you want to keep. Then, head over to febycv’s thread on the XDA Forums and check the instructions and grab the files you need to bring that tasty ICS treat to your myTouch.
I haven’t tested this ROM personally, but I’m about to now. If it’s anything like his previous ROMs, I’m sure it will be amazing. Over and out, until next time!
Thanks Chris!
