Leaked HTC Desire S ROM appears online

HTC's Desire S is still over a month away from release, but a leaked test ROM from the upcoming phone has already made its way online, courtesy of MoDaCo's Paul O'Brien. The ROM joins a growing list of leaked Gingerbread-based ROMs from HTC, including a test build from the Wildfire S and leaked Gingerbread update for the Desire HD.

ROM chefs over on XDA are already hard at work porting this leaked firmware over to the original Desire, just as they've previously done with Sense 2.0-powered ROMs from the Desire HD and Desire Z.

The Desire S will launch in Europe next month. Official Gingerbread updates for the Desire, Desire HD, Desire Z and Incredible S are expected shortly thereafter. [MoDaCo via XDA]
