I already donated to cyanogen (paypal transaction ID #439833343B033954W) and hope the 4g/hdmi/fm get worked out.

I hope all those who posted send in there paypal donation and I wish everyone who uses CM6 would donate if they want to support the cyanogen team.

Congrats on the $575 in promises so far. At $25 an hour that would be about 23hrs of labor for one of the devs. I am sure HTC programmers get paid at least $25 an hour.

I just wanted to put the numbers in perspective. Even with $575 we still do not even have a week of labor for a dev.

If you use the cyanogen rom or plan to once it gets 4g/hdmi/fm send in your donations and not only promises. I would donate more but I have other financial obligations.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DanBergundy:
I would hope they make more than that...
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
what is your point, you sound foolish everytime you write something. We've all donated to cm team, i could easily post my contribution that i made to them months ago. actually i've donated to this guy twice because i have a nexus one as well that i donated to way back on cm5. but all of that has nothing to do with what this thread is contributing for. Hell why does everyone think it will be cyanogens team that will get it working 1st? this is a 4g donation thread, it technically has nothing to do with cm6 (even though they do have a head start) I'm just wondering what posting your transaction # has to do with anything, please explain that to me?
[EVO 4G Android Development] r.mauldin:
$25hr is about $50,000yr

$50,000 a year was a guess and think it probably is a good average number.
[EVO 4G Android Development] r.mauldin:
What? :confused:

So proof of support sounds foolish? :confused:

So it is ok to post a promise of support but not proof? :confused:

This thread is about CM6 and support for 4g. :confused:

Because I have no idea what you are talking about I will just say you are right if that makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
good point, but i think most of us passionate enough about the evo to be on xda have most likely already donated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
the bounty thread holds people to their promises. if pslim's name is on page one with a $25 next to it, its very simple to see if i made that donation. everybody should donate to cm6 just for using this rom, but who ever creates 4G gets everybodies donation in the OP, its that simple.
[EVO 4G Android Development] r.mauldin:
Can you read? You posted I sound foolish every time I post. But you missed the point of this thread. It is not just for anyone it is for the CM6 team. Please re-read the OP.

please pm me if you still do not understand. no need to add more worthless posts.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
So if someone creates it but they don't work for cm, then they don't get paid? Cmon on now. this is an open source rom, I know you understand OPEN SOURCE, anybody can do it. if this is just a thread to get the cm team to work harder, then im going to agree with you, this thread is kind of useless because they are already devoting the time and resources they have. What i thought the purpose of this thread was to motivate someone else to do it, but i do agree that this thread probably will not change cyanogens mind and it will not help with the production of 4g with HIS team, but i am a strong believer that there are many other developers on xda with just as much talent, therefore, i'm not only waiting for cyanogen actually madcoder. If this thread is just to bug cyanogen and we think that by throwing money in his face is going to make him create 4g, that isn't going to happen. if he had an idea to get it working he would have already tried that, hes not holding back on purpose. he on here everyday and he has a job, not to mention he doesn't sleep half the time. He can't halt the production of cm6 for 3+ weeks just to get 4g working which benefits less then 5% of his fan base.
[EVO 4G Android Development] r.mauldin:
This is not a bounty thread for a winner who figures it out. It is a pool to support those who are working on it (CM6 Team). You can pm me your apology for the foolish comment.

This thread is to support CM6. Please read the original post:

Oh I want to try 4G on CM, its been the only thing holding me back. Live in the Charlotte region, have great 4G access. Thanks for all the hard work Shinzul and toast and Shift.

[EVO 4G Android Development] sfasu77:
Where do i pay? This is a great development!
[EVO 4G Android Development] peoplesinc:
I would say yes since CM is open source and they share plenty of other code already.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Cool. Right about now, Sense will release their new version that will be so completely awesome no one will want AOSP anyway.

Lol, they are evil that way :)

Nice backhanded compliment, not
[EVO 4G Android Development] thefredelement:
I'm down for $10, where do I send it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
I was only partly kidding. Right now, Sense is just a bunch of pretty widgets and a graphical overlay to AOSP. But from what I have seen of the new Sense coming up, it will have some real guts to it.

We'll see.

I prefer AOSP for the speed and the user friendliness / tweakiness of the interface. 4G obviously the missing piece that will make choosing AOSP over Sense a no-brainer (until we see HTC's new offering in all it's glory).
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrmylanman:
Congrats! Can't wait to try out out! Will send the money as soon as I find out how :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
So kpoz, are we cleared hot to donate?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Lol, not a backhanded compliment at all. You just have such a huge chip on your shoulder that you think anyone that doesn't basically repeat your mantra is attacking you.

I am very happy and proud of the guys that figured this out. I didn't believe it could be done and they did it. Well done to them!

Fantastic, I'm ready to fullfil my pledge as soon as I know where to send it. I think I'll kick in a few extra as a tip ;p
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
i'd like the "5 thanks per day" limit to be increased...

also, the wimax implementation needs to be polished up a bit before it can be committed. however, the fact that it's working on cm is a huge deal, since there were a lot of detractors positive that it would never work (to them i say, kindly suck it)...

regardless, spread the word. let's rally the troops. it's time to follow through with the pledges. i'll talk with kpoz and see what can be done to form a simple and fair method to shower toast and shinzul with jam and java.
[EVO 4G Android Development] easy9:
What's the big deal?

I will try this out, but I don't see what the big deal is.flips fresh has had everything working for the longest with out any problems.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jonathaflores:
no you didn't ama stop right here and not answer your question!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Because this is wimax from the community for the community, that alone is significant. Plus there is potential to use it in all evo roms and my experience is that even though these guys do it "part time" the community is way faster than oems, see any release for proof
[EVO 4G Android Development] myndwire:
this is an almost *ground up* implementation of wimax, wrapped around the proprietary htc stuff. this will work in AOSP roms (CM6 primarily), and be forward portable to future devices with wimax. the possibilities are staggering!
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
fresh = sense-based which has had "4g" working because it's been ingrained into sense.

cm = aosp-based and open source, which requires wimax to be reverse-engineered and be coded openly.

read the thread before posting such things. thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] halorin:
Ahem..

Cyanogen Mod is based on Android Open Source Project. I may be overly generalizing it, but basically the Evo's 4G implementation was made by HTC for a Sense based platform.

To make 4G work on an AOSP based rom like CM6, toast and shinzul had to reverse engineer the radio drivers themselves. I'm sure there are lots of people who earn a livelihood off of the work they've pulled off for this community.

The deal is pretty damn big.

You asking that is equivalent to asking what the big deal would be about an automatic shift Honda S2000. S2000s only come manual, so someone would have had to custom build a transmission for automatic.

So, yeah. Big.

That is one of the best looking posts I've ever seen on this forums. :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Hey hey, in fairness to the guy, if he has no experience with AOSP, he's had it easy9.

4G with a Sense-based rom has been around for a while, so doing that is really easy9, but on an AOSP rom it was a TON of work because HTC wouldn't hand out the proprietary code. Many people here prefer AOSP because its lighter, faster, more customizable, and more up-to-date than Sense is. WiMax on AOSP is a huge accomplishment because it can be utilized for all AOSP roms.

Shift is right, you should have read the thread posts ... its a small requirement, pretty easy9 to handle without too much inconvienence. But once you try CM6 with 4G and give it a fair shake, it won't be easy9 to go back. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] lithid-cm:
What timing! GB and Wimax! by time the kinks get worked out gingerbread will be here. Man o man this is a great time to android!
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Hopefully google has figured out how to fix their mail app to work in more secure exchange environments, otherwise I don't get to flash like the rest of you haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
The more "custom" Sense becomes, the more fragmented and the harder it will be for devs to make sure their programs will work with it. It's a double edge sword that could easily backfire.

Then there's the bigger picture: the moment EVO isn't Sprint/HTCs golden child is the moment we stop seeing updates .... ever again. This development basically guarantees our phones stay current and functional. Think of it as future proofing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bedoig:
Awesome work guys!

Is that 1.9 MB/s pic accurate? Maybe my math is wrong, but doesn't that work out to like 15mbps?

Shinzul, does your implementation possibly get around some bandwidth caps in the Sense version?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JArcher84:
+1 man I love this community!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
Yeah the default mail app is basically crap (though ironically it handles meetings _better_ than the sense version which has not displayed the time sense the 2.2 froyo update). But there are market versions that work well.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BigRick10:
I thought the pic said 19mbps??

[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
What bandwidth cap? I get around 10MB in LA/CA region... considering most individual websites will cap _any_ connection at 2mb ... that's well above any effective cap.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Not to side track any more, but I would prefer native and pretty much aosp can't do that which sucks because I would love to have a nand of all different kinds of roms especially with the dual boot options out there. When can we donate already haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] bedoig:
10 is definitely good, but I wasn't aware that anyone had ever seen speeds of 15-16mbps.

shinzul has been very good on keeping us up to date with the development of wimax, now that its complete I wonder how long before we (the average user) will actually be able to use it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bedoig:
I guess it's just all location / local network congestion. I've personally never seen higher than 8 (which is still great).

Shinzul must just be on an awesome tower.
[EVO 4G Android Development] abiezer:
Or he discovered the secret to uncapping WiMax speeds!
[EVO 4G Android Development] kallisti5:
nah.. those are normal rates.. i've seen all the way to 15Mbit down. However Clear (the wimax network owner) is pretty quick to throttle on their end all the way down to 0.21Mbit... unfortunately their network is pretty weak.

Long time lurker here (in general) and I've been following this thread for a few months. In the beginning it seemed like this day was just a pipe dream, an impossible feat. Thankfully there are some truly talented people on the CyanogenMod team and that CM 4G dream just became a reality.

I'd like to thank Shinzul and toast, especially, for their long hours and relentless effort...so much that I'm offering up $20 to the pot.

I know most all of us know this, but time for a little review:

Mb = 1,024 Kbits

MB = 1,024 Kbytes (8,192 bits)

The capitalization matters.
[EVO 4G Android Development] TURDxSANDWICH:
That's a lot of mpbs!

Are all the testers seeing speeds like that, or only the ones in great areas? I guess the question is... are those significantly higher speeds than what the testers saw on a Sense ROM in the same area?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BigRick10:
So from the pic. Does that show around 5mbps upload??
[EVO 4G Android Development] DruHill:
There, it's fixed now...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Well, "the testers" so far is just "the tester" haha. He took that pic while driving around and said he saw as hgh as 17 mpbs. That said, he said speed tests were generally around 8 mpbs for most of the time, but with Wimax, your distance to the tower matters. Signal degradation is craptastic on that band.

But we will have many more testers once I make some changes to the rom to make it more user friendly :).
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
damn you metric system haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] ilongbored:
Thanks, fixed the original.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Also just as a general note:

I was up til 5:30am this morning making wimax work, so I'm pretty exhausted :). I need to grab a shower and do some work developing for my actual job (you know, the day job :p).

I know everyone is excited to see this go into the nightly, and no I don't have an ETA on that. There are some more small kinks we have to work out to make sure it works for everyone out of the box, but as always, I will keep you guys in the loop.
