Directly from the pink hatted Android genius, the T-Mobile myTouch 4G has now met the custom recovery ClockworkMod and the talented members of the Android community have been in full force since it was first established that the T-Mobile G2 gained permanent root access.
As you can see in @kmobs tweet above, he is running a nandroid NANDROID backup just in case and states that a release is soon. While we never underestimate the dedication and determination, we can soon cross off another step to having a custom ROM thrown on this bloatware infested device.
Be sure and follow @ClockworkMod, @kmobs or @AndroidSPIN if want to stay well-informed on the progress of this phase in pursuit of custom ROMs on the myTouch 4G or G2. And be sure and tip your devs folks as they do not get paid for their contribution or dedication to the Android community as some of these guys have kids, wives, in college, etc…
*Update*
Shortly after this article went live it seems that @ClockworkMod has stated via Twitter that the…well, see it for yourself!
Enjoy your custom recovery folks!

EDIT: T-Mobile has retained 2 more post-paid lines to their subscriber base and earned the sale of ( 2 ) MT4G’s from yours truely just because I found out they are now ROOTABLE. T-Mobile & Google should take note of this.
