... i wouldn't. in fact, you are not allowed to deal with thread politics until you have fully completed any and all testing/support functions currently on your plate. :)

... have you ever seen a large tank with piranha when they know you have their food bucket. toss in a few chucks and you get a feeding frenzy...this thread feels kinda like that. read the first post? crazy talk man...crazy talk.

-------------------------

... children. for the love of god stop the bickering. sound like a bunch of old women at bingo on a loosing night. good god. the developers did not have to stop by and provide so many updates. they could have, and in my opinion after watching this feeding frenzy of stoopidity and crass behavior, should have simply left us in the dark until the product was ready. as a group it seems we are not able to handle updates in a civilized fashion.

the OP is very clear. the post is very clear. if you choose to throw a few dollars in the kitty to help draw attention to the 4G issue you may. no one is forcing you. no one is coming door to door. no one will beat you down. if you feel guilty for not donating (whether now or when 4G is fully functional) that is something you need to deal with your own conscious about. if you want to donate now or later that's up to you...its a DONATION. it is a donation. you can pay it when you choose. you can even choose to be a schmuck and recind your offer and offer no excuse or reason. get it? a donation. not an invoice. not a bill. not a tax. a do-na-shun.

mitche11i

if you choose not to donate that's fine. if you choose to donate that is fine. i've read this thread an no where do i see the organizers pressing you (or anyone) to donate. let alone to donate before 4G is in the final CyanogenMOD builds. some folks CHOOSE to donate because they are excited or whatnot, thats fine. they can do that. since many of us have our names in the FirstPost with a $xx by it, as we donate we can inform the organizers so that they can mark us as paid. this is not the same as being compelled to pay for something. and you trying to claim you were "acting" the largest detractor in an effort to show your support is both bassackward and tragic. my guess is that you are in desperate need for attention and have found thread trolling emotionally fulfilling. you have my heartfelt sympathy. may you find find peace and happiness one of these days.

Toast and Shinzul

thank you again for the time and effort.

thank you for your patience with "the zoo".

thank you for the updates.

Shift - never would have thought that dev would have done you dirty
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Gman is correct, you must ignore that mich guy. Arguing with the troll only feeds him. He obviously will use 4G the second it comes out, don't fall for his stupid tricks
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Not only that but hopefully no one quotes the troll so you don't ever have to read the posts. Does it feel icky agreeing with me? Haha

I desperately need more ggggggggggggg's. Hope this winter solstice and those druids at Stonehenge don't cause some sort of intergalactic magnetic storm that in turn causes a super-sunspot which fries all electronic communications.... then I'd never get more geeeees..

Does 4g mean we have 4x the phonetic gees in Jesus? ....if so, we have one powerful device on our hands!

Thanks again for keeping us updated. You are fantastic.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
Finally I can be useful...

I'm certified and have worked with all manor of virtual hypervisor platforms for over 6 years ... I guarantee we can get you compiling in a VM with minimal performance hit. Just let me know the platform, the guest, and we can run with it from there.

Worst case scenario tell me what you need and I can get you a VM in my cloud that you could remote into so you're not beating the heck out of your laptop.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
dude, you were always useful....for comic relief!! haha seriously though, i bet they would appreciate any help you can give

I've been working the cheerleader role... but people kept telling me the miniskirt didn't work for me...

I'm no coder unless you count hacks to WoW add-ons (and i stopped that years ago) so for the most part I can only heckle, encourage, and belittle. very rarely I can contribute.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
pretty much sums up my entire existence on xda haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Haha, me too. I can do pretty much everything but when it comes to coding, im cheerleeding from the side as well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
He'll notice. I offered him an account on my box as well as emailed him a link to the post in case it gets burrows by the time he is back online.

We'll see what happens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
*cracks knuckles*

alright folks... prepare for some clarifications.

HOW TO DONATE:

donate to toast and shinzul (as stated in the op). once you have done that, just email wimax.pool@gmail.com with your pledge donation confirmation as well as your xda nick so i can cross your name out from the pledge list....​

..which is what this entire thread's purpose was about... TO PLEDGE a donation to provide a resource pool for team cm for allocation towards wimax development. there is no forcing of any payments (as mitchellvii and his equally narrow-visioned supporters so foolishly claim). until wimax is fully implemented into cm and released into the builds, neither kpoz nor i have any inclination of forcing people to follow through with their pledges.

however, let's be clear, once this code is committed to github and compiled and flashed on your phone, rest assured, kpoz and i *will* be bothering you if you didn't complete your pledge.

toast and shinzul have no hand in the donation process. so, if you have any problems with this, pm me (kpoz is on vacation right now) and i will answer/clarify any and all of your concerns.

as for the other nonsense i'm seeing in the thread.... be appropriate and respectful. sarahlegs is one of the bigger contributors to the android community, so i suggest you show some respect. she knows what she's talking about.

also, as shinzul stated, he and toast are doing their best to push out an alpha build soon. they've been working *nonstop* on this and i highly recommend you, out of respect for these hardworking guys, to keep it civilized in here.

also, and i can't believe i'm repeating myself, report report REPORT any and all trolls. we seem to attract the most idiotic ones.

now... for the personal questions for me:

mitchellvii:

be quiet. this is not the ultimatedroid thread nor is it a discussion on that. i know all about that and i'm not bringing it up simply because it's not applicable or even remotely related. if you have an issue with me, pm me.

p-slim & xhazyx:

yea, it's been a wild party. thanks for the support!

crossrocker:

dude, i truly love your enthusiasm, just don't misdirect it against the wrong people :)

with all that said and done, folks, this thread is one of the most popular in the world of cm. people from all over are checking it out. let's not turn it into a bickerfest and a headache for the mods. it's a huge deal for cm, for android. don't taint this... this is history in the making. let's all try to make it a good one for the books.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
hehe .... he said 'taint'.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xmellyx:
That was an incredibly articulate and poignant response. He's like the Nick Naler of android.

[EVO 4G Android Development] RoZm X:
Can someone clarify what this is donating for? I would love to donate :)

I just don't know exactly what this is for :o
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
there is plenty of explanations, but my reason for donating is a community built wimax(4G) implementation that can be applied to both AOSP and SENSE ROM's
[EVO 4G Android Development] DraginMagik:
...we're donating to the devs so that they will hurry up and implement the Lightsabre and blowjob functions. personally, I'm hoping for the built in NFC that will allow us backstage access into the stripper factories and beer volcano resorts. for more details, please read the first post...yes, the ENTIRE first post. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Tibedabeeto:
LMAO, I took your response and made it my status on gmail, hilarious. I feel sorry for the person asking the question though. But still funny.

So I haven't even bought my wife anything for her birthday or Christmas (4 days apart), but I have now donated $20 each to Shinzul and toast for working harder on this than necessary.

Now, my wife and I may have mutually decided not to buy gifts for each other this year (put money towards other projects), but that still means I've donated $40 more here than I've spent on my wife. :D

- Had not pledged anything, but decided ultimately that these guys and community have earned something from me
[EVO 4G Android Development] TheTruth:
+1 best comment in this whole thread! Was feeling a little dejected today but that made me laugh!!!

So I've seen a few other handsets get a gingerbread build of cm, is that what they have the build bot shut down for (finishing gingerbread for cm), or is it a combination of wimax and that?
[EVO 4G Android Development] david279:
You wont see a nightly till all hardware is working with gingerbread. It has nothing to do with wimax.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
Well they aren't completely exclusive. CM6 uses a kernel with no wimax drivers so wimax will either need a custom kernel our well need a nightly update.

[EVO 4G Android Development] drmacinyasha:
Buildbots aren't shut down. The builds are failing because Gingerbread and the new SDk and whatnot requires that Android be built on a 64-bit compiler. The i7 and Xeon both had to have their OS's upgraded to 64-bit versions, and after that, the compilers and packages updated respectively. Now they're not compiling because the repo sync fails, due to all the changes being made in the repo, and the needed changes on the buildbots.

For more info: http://buildbot.teamdouche.net/builders/cm_supersonic_full
[EVO 4G Android Development] hondoslack:
Thanks, that is good info. Its too bad 64 bit can be such a PITA sometimes.

Sorry, I am just laughing at myself cause I have no friggin clue what you just said :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
Shinzul waiting for you to chime in here. You wanted to build 2 nights ago but a small c+ error but toastcfh was suppose to compile last night, how did that go and is today a possible release day? If it isn't that's fine, I just don't want to be pressing f5 every 2minutes. Thanks once again for your hard work.

No soup for you! Have another carrot!

with 4G (non-AOSP) the fastest I've been able to get was ~9mbit/sec (download) and just under 1.1mbit/sec (upload)

generally its 4-8mbit/sec down.

I *believe* the wimaxtool I was using to test the speed was not reporting my actual download speed, but the theoretical speed I could get based on my signal stregnth.

*note* I was in Manhattan for all my wimax testing (east village specifically)

[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
Dude, relax...

Don't make this an issue about money. Toast and shinzul have been working non-stop on this, not because of the money, but to get everyone a taste of unfettered access to wimax speeds.

Let's take a step back and chill out with the "generous tip" talk. So, relax.. Seriously.

Swyped from my EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] hondoslack:
No maybe you're the troll? If you've actually read the thread, instead of joining the flock, you'd know they're working on it, while you're probably worried about having 4g while out shopping... Just let them work on it already.

For the record...

DEFINITION OF A TROLL:

TROLL (IS) Someone who comes into a forum and tries to start fights for the sole purpose of causing disruption and being an ass.

TROLL (IS NOT) Someone who just happens to disagree with your point of view.

There are some (ok, many) in this particular thread who consider me a troll simply because I felt that 4g would not be cracked, not due to incompetence on the part of the developers, but due to their lack of access to something proprietary.

I also felt that to have a "bounty" thread at all, no matter how admirable a goal, is a direct violation of Rule #5 of the forum. It is permitted to donate if you appreciate a developer's work; however, it is against the policy to solicit donations in hope of eventually receiving something (in this case, 4g) because it could be easily interpreted that the developers are then working in exchange for promised compensation.

The sad part is that this entire thread and the whole bounty issue was completely unnecessary because shinzul and toast would have worked on wimax anyway because they are great guys and that's what they do.

I applaud their success and I am very happy to find out there was nothing of a proprietary nature heading them off at the pass when they were so close.

[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
Well, if we contact him and give him a list of names of people donating for the purpose of 4G development, he can see if those people did in fact donate. Otherwise, people will have to trust someone and someone will have to collect all of the money.

I could always incorporate as a Not-for-Profit and collect the funds that way. Therefore, I would be registered with the state, which would eliminate any and all concerns of me stealing all of the money. Then, I would donate all of the funds to the CM6 team.

I work at a transactional real estate firm that also practices business law, so organizing and incorporating would be a breeze for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] echoside:
Ill do 10. Maybe more depending on my check.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
well, i was just curious as to why you'd want to include names, but your reasoning makes sense to me. setting up a nfp would just be overkill, methinks.

although, on the flipside, setting that up would be completely in line with your career lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
Well, everyone is worried about stealing funds, so it's a logical choice.

We can call it "The Patrons of 4G Development for CM6".
