Cyanogen 4.0.3 (make that 4.0.4) Android ROM Now Available

Update: Make that 4.0.4. Two days later, they have cranked out another update. Obviously I am not going to try to keep up. Just install the Cyanogen Updater from the Android Market and keep up with the updates that way. Or just check here:

The new Cyanogen 4.0.3 Android ROM is now available for both G1 (HTC Dream) and the MyTouch (Magic). But of course, if you have Cyanogen Updater installed from the Android Market, you would already know that. I recently switched from the JF ROMs to Cyanogen, and have never looked back. Both are great ROMs for rooting your Android phone and have common features such as multi-touch (eventually coming for all Android users in a future “Donut” release), but Cyanogen seems more stable to me. It also has the big added advantage of having Apps2SD built-in, so if you can figure out how to create an ext2/3/4 partition on your microSD card you have virtually unlimited storage space for apps. (I recommend giving no more than 1GB to the ext3 partition — you’ll never need that much space anyway.)

Here’s what’s new in 4.0.3:

Changes in v4.0.3
* More Donut guts: Bluetooth and audio updates
* Fixed swap-free-notify for compcache
* Tweaked kernel (trying out SLQB)
* Lots of small stuff recently added to AOSP
* Possible fix for the phone number parsing issue
