I've spread the word in both of the CM6 threads. Hopefully, that will bump up our total.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
any update on how we're going to implement these donations? paypal? any word from cyanogen?
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
No update. Will contact him in the next day or so.

Another option is to have everyone donate, and then give him a list of names of all of the people who donated, thereby indicating that they donated for the purpose of 4G development.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cosine83:
The man himself says no. Wait for 6.1. 4G is confirmed for 6.1.
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
awesome..

as for the other option, i'm not sure if giving names would provide any benefit, unless i'm missing a point (which is entirely possible since i'm slightly distracted with work as well).

confirmed for 6.1? where did you hear that? that would be great news! (i'm still donating my pledge lol)..

however, what this thread is based on is this post here:

http://www.cyanogenmod.com/home/cyanogenmod-6-0-status-update

still, i hope madcoder can get it working for 6.1. that would rock! my 4g at home is begging me to conquer its bandwidth.

slowly but surly we are working out the kinks in wimax. of course its working but we have to do a few things manually with commands, mainly just the routing part after we connect. its really all down to making it automagic and letting the API do the dirty work as it should. it wont be long before shinzul and i have all that sorted. everyday brings us a step closer to the final goal. at that point we can give everyone a build to test on and report issues with. it would definitely go faster if we had wimax in our areas to do testing our selves. but i gotta give props to our awesome testers, for going into the AM testing. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Just go to the local Sprint Store. They ALL have Wimax in their shops. Sit outside in your car and test away.

Until toast came in and finally posted somethimg informative.

Thanks toast.

See post above...that's informative:D:D...Anyway, thanks toast!
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
where do you get these insane ideas, what makes you think every sprint store has wimax? 2nd you expect toast and shinzul to sit outside of a store and test in a car for you, i need some of what you're smoking, pass that ish this way.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mkeena0305:
+ 1 :) .
[EVO 4G Android Development] kruglovus:
Well, it seems that this thread's writers and readers alike are bored out of their mind waiting for the magic to happen. And who can blame us? So, here is a pickle for you:

Everybody heard about the well-known fact (or a myth?) that WiMax is draining the battery like there's no tomorrow. I just learnt here that Sprint still routes voice calls thorough 3G, and 4G simply adds another active radio, not replacing anything in terms of battery usage. Then I thought: When do I need Wimax? 1) When I am in the middle of the call to browse the web. 2) To improve the videocall quality. 3) To download something faster. For everything else, like background pull and push notifications, 3G is plenty enough.

So my pipe dream is:

to have the WiMax radio auto on and off based on the following conditions: WiFi is disconnected, and either the phone is in the middle of the voice call or the screen is on (it would be nice if WiMax does not auto off if the network connection is heavily active, i.e. a download is in process).

Do you think it would be feasible and most importantly beneficial for battery life? Discuss away
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
The difference between insanity and genius is measured only by your success.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
I don't think so. I think they use a femtocell to beam it. Reason being that I have gone to places where there was no 4g signal but they had full signal in their stores.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
actually built all this out with Tasker (almost exactly how you described it).... it's not that hard actually to do. The problem is/was that Sense had this problem of not shutting off 4G properly so the net result was once the radio got turned on it ... stayed on and I ended up with no battery savings.

I had a "power saver" task that would turn off all but essential radios when the screen turned off unless you were on a call or there was an active download. Ill definately be playing with that again once this gets rolled out.
[EVO 4G Android Development] donatom3:
I'm pretty sure if you setup Tasker correctly it can do this for you once we have 4G in CM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Hmmm, I was trying to make a helpful suggestion and you decided to be a complete ass in response. Well done.

Toast said they would like to test but cannot because they have no 4g in their town. I was merely explaining that they might be able to access 4g at the local Sprint store. I believe all Sprint stores have access to 4g via femtocell as I have been in a Sprint store where there is no 4g and yet they have full signal. Hard to demonstrate to potential buyers how great 4g is if you don't have 4g.

Lol, how dare I "expect" toast et al to test their own work? Maybe because they said they wanted to and that if they could things would go much faster? Maybe, huh, ya think?

** And here's a really insane idea. Why not have toast or shinzul call their local Sprint Store and say something really nutty like, "Hey, do you guys have 4g in your store?" My God, I am sure they would spontaneously combust at the very thought of such a radical maneuver.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason0071:
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes...

[EVO 4G Android Development] ViViDboarder:
Get some sleep!

lolwut! I sleep for a couple hours and miss the longest off topic movie reenactment in a thread ever!

Yay testers!

I'm not sure about that. I went to a store in San Diego and they definitely didn't have it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
One last note on Tasker: I've found it works great when you are toggling antenna that merely provide additional route options, but not so great when you are toggling an antenna that is solely responsible for that traffic type. This is because task detection isn't always as fast as what you're trying to launch/do.

So 4G toggling isn't so bad because you can browse YouTube via 3G while you wait for that faster pipe to come online ... but toggling your GPS when you launch maps can send you to a settings screen because Google maps didn't detect the GPS chip right away and wants you to go enable it (of course by the time it redirects you to that settings screen it's already enabled... so it's an annoying thing to end up staring at).

Basically my advice is to not get too granular ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmart4:
not 100% sure but i think sprint stores have repeaters that strengthen a 4g signal. the signal must be available in that city tho; thought i read that somewhere
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
they definitely want to help with 4g but it doesn't mean they want to leave their work space and be cramped in a car for hours on end. haha, i can imagine a sprint rep getting off a work everyday and see this guy who sits in his car for 8 hours at a time for 2 months after his day job to get 4g working on cm, nothing good can come out of that situation.

potential alpha .... looks like I'm potentially paying up.

EDIT: With GB putting nightlies on potential hold ... I assuem this will be a seperate ZIP at this point eventually merged in? Or is Toast going to go ahead and kick off another nightly (thought I saw his name on the list as one of the TD devs in charge of EVO)?

Totally pumped

I'm totally looking forward to this alpha build... As soon as I can get a solid 4G connection on my EVO with CM, I'm paying up in full.

[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
<------- delightfully tacky haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Here's the part I don't get. We can't have any expectations of performance or timelines from developers because "they do this work for free", but then we get strongarmed and badgered to pay up before even an alpha has been released when donations were intended for "working wimax on cm"?

Am I missing something? I can't have expectations because I don't pay them but I am expected to pay them before they are done?

You can't have it both ways kids. You wanna get paid for your work? You owe us specific ETA's and faster work. This thread is teetering on the edge of breaking forum policy of requiring compensation for development.

** To make matters worse, the most aggressive strong-arming is being done by the very same people who flew into absolute hysterics when the fans of another developer suggested users pay that developer $2 for access to their nightlies which actually exist.

I don't blame the developers for this but rather their overjealous fanboys.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Crossrocker:
Calm down.. Its peoples choice on how they interpret this. Either 4g working or 4g on my phone. Anyone bashing you for not wanting to donate right now are wrong. Cm team never asked for money.... So your last statement is untrue
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
When donations are demanded they are no longer donations, they are compensation. Read the forum rules. Solicitation of funds in exchange for services is STRICTLY FORBIDDEN.

Mitchell's EVO
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Where did I say cm team asked for money? I specifically stated that I hold the developers blameless in this. It is just a few of their fanboys who are violating forum rules by badgering people for their donations.

As a matter of fact, if you read the forum rules, this entire thread has been in violation of forum policy from day one by setting up a bounty for performance.

If I donate in exchange for expected performance, that breaks the rules - period. Other threads have been closed for far less.

[EVO 4G Android Development] hondoslack:
If I remember correctly, in the early days of this thread, it nearly got taken down as unethical. I can't remember what the reasoning was for letting it live, but it was a good one, and I'm glad it did.

Can we just leave mitchell alone folks? He's made some compelling arguments, and I'm sure there are different opinions and all, but let's not judge, lest we be judged ourselves...
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
its trolling plain and simple, report to mod's if you please but don't come to the thread with nothing to add. there always has to be one person ice skating up hill. The irony is coming to a site that pretty much celebrates the fact that everyone that is rooted violated terms of the vendor and then complain about moral values.

[EVO 4G Android Development] salty6924:
Nobody demanded my donation, and it was never even asked for. This thread was put up so that people who want wimax, while also giving to the dev community, could come together and discuss and support a thus seemingly impposible (at the time) task. Anyone mentioning the validity if this thread's goals, or the intentions if its creator/serious participants/or the dev community it is referencing, is either the worst kind of troll or grossly misinformed of his/her own accord.

I say we let it sulk under the bridge and get back to thanking the Cyanogen team for their incredible contribution.

guys, obviously donate to toast and shinzul. that wimax.pool email is *ONLY* for us (kpoz and i) to confirm your pledge; but donations go to only toast and shinzul.

ps.

once i'm fully awake, i will respond to the idiocy displayed in this thread.

It kills me how everyone is smart enough to make the money to buy an evo, then they're smart enough to find xda, followed by them being smart enough to root their phone and put on cm6, then they even find the 4G donation thread, after all that then someone can't find the donation link in the OP *smh* if anyone ask where to donate, don't even post links just respond check op, that person will have to ask themselves why didn't they think of that.

This thread is not for people to voice their opinions. If you want to donate, congratulate, or express excitement/gratitude. Post.

If not, try a new thread.

If you have a problem, contact a mod. Just remember that mod is toast and crap like this keeps him away from development.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Ok guys, here's a status update!

I probably would have had an alpha build out last night, but there were one or two bugs in the code that I sent to toastcfh to compile (programming in c is NOT my strong suit), and I had to drive 2 hours to visit my fiancee. Today I am flying out for Christmas, but I brought my laptop with me, which is currently compiling a build. I have 4g in the area I am in now (wow it's weird ;p) and I can test the changes myself, which makes things go a lot faster.

edit: The virtual machine I'm using on my laptop just froze so I'm not entirely sure that I am going to be able to build using this. Either way, toastcfh will be able to build tonight, but we still have to test to make sure it's going to work, etc...
