Superbly talented ROM cook group ACS (Android Creative Syndicate) has released a fully rooted Gingerbread ROM based on the Epic’s leaked ED12 source that they are calling Leaky Gingerbead. Our friend’s over at Android Central have the full info on their forums, but the basic gist is that it’s a fully functional ROM, minus a few things that you may not want to part with.

  • 4G non-functional
  • GPS non-functional
  • Wake lag present
  • Does not boot when plugged in and powered off, unplug to boot
  • Temperature sensor readings are incorrect. You may see interrupted charging due to bad battery temp readings.
  • Slide to unlock button sometimes ‘sticks’
  • Has Carrier IQ (dieplz

Still, for you Epic flashaholics wanting to get the flavor of Gingerbread on your tongue, here’s a good chance to do so. Video of the ROM in action after the break!
