The 6 refers to the ID of the radio that is configured in the system. I think mobile is 0, Wifi is 1, etc etc. There's an array of radio networks that the system can iterate through to deal with android intents and such.

ConnectivityService is where the WimaxService object is actually inserted into the system for use, and you can use the ConnectivityManager to do stuff with it.

To answer the original question, I have no idea what will happen when you try to use things like skype, I mean I think it's possible to fake the system out, but that may break other things. We'll just have to test when we get there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] chrisw491:
Ok. I'm a total noob. I have a question. I was reading somewhere that in cyanogen 6.1.1, there will be OTA . Will the wimax be implemented in the OTA update?

Edit: ok I read wrong. 6.1.1 includes "push update notifications"
[EVO 4G Android Development] dj_L:
Yet another example, for everyone who is watching this thread, of how much you guys have had to do to make this work for us, above and beyond making the connection. Fortunately, making the connection was the really difficult part, you guys are on the down slope now as all of the rest of the needed info is freely available (if not mostly done already).

Again, excellent work guys!

thanks so much for the response. I would love the ability to "fake it out" but really, just having 4g is AMAZING! thanks for all the amazing work!

Ok, everybody. I apologize for being unavailable today. I was busy taking advantage of my newfound freedom. Tomorrow, I will be unreachable for a majority of the day because I will be snowboarding (suck it, Shinzul). Thus, tomorrow night I will begin sending messages to every individual who has pledged to donate.

I just emailed Shinzul regarding the aforementioned donations and the method by which he and Toast would like to receive payment; more on this tomorrow evening. Ready thy wallets.

Note: If you have already paid Shinzul or Toast (I believe someone already paid), please forward me the payment confirmation email from PayPal. This should eliminate any potential problems that may arise regarding payment confirmation.

Hey, I'm a total nooby. I flashed CM6 on my EVO yesterday but I don't have a 4g option. Am I doing something wrong? Is only available on a donation basis? Thanks for the help.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mitchellvii:
Cyanogen: "Also, WiMAX on CM6, how cool is that?" from Twitter.

Not sure what this means? That Wimax has been cracked or is actually implemented in the latest build? These guys write so much code they start to speak in code.

I wish they would just be plain and say exactly what they mean.
[EVO 4G Android Development] housry23:
Not implemented yet. There hasn't been a nightly in a couple days so maybe they are working on implementing Gingerbread and Wimax. Hopefully in the 204 nightly we will have Wimax. It is not available in any of the stable releases yet. Stay tuned for more info.
[EVO 4G Android Development] timothydoanpham:
there really is no code here. if you follow shinzul, toast, or any of the other guys or search, you find out that they got wimax on cm6. plain as day. it's only in alpha stage right now and they're working on it more to make it more use friendly instead of dev-only friendly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HondaCop:
This LITERALLY made me LOL. This guy has upped the ante. Raised the bar.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Karadorde:
kpoz, shift, and company are working out the particulars. Soon and very soon my friend.

WiMax works but has not be released yet. Still playing the waiting game. As stated earlier it is in the alpha stage currently. Only three people have connected to WiMax on CM. I don't even think they have an "Off" feature yet. In short, it works but is not available yet.

WiMax does work. You can successfully connect and use the network; however, I would say we won't see it in a nightly for at least another week. I am just spitballing on the time frame as I have no idea really. Regardless, still needs some testing before it gets pushed out.

[EVO 4G Android Development] dwd3885:
Not trying to be a douche or anything, but I'm not going to pay until wimax becomes available to users. Anything coukd happen that prevents that, unforeseen circumstances, etc. Not trying to be a jerk, but the point was to make wimax available to all, not just that it works for a few people.

That said, I can't wait! The guys have done a great job. I'd love to pay sooner rather than later!
[EVO 4G Android Development] m4rk0358:
Likewise.

Great job though! Look forward to being able to use it on CM.

EDIT: And who are we paying exactly (i.e., which paypal address will I need?).
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jason0071:
Ditto.....
[EVO 4G Android Development] Karadorde:
It will all be sorted out this evening or in the next day or two.
[EVO 4G Android Development] p-slim:
I just have to ask, why are we donating now? Technically we still don't know when this will be available, so in actuality we're no closer then we were last week except we KNOW its possible but most believed already. I just thought we wouldn't donate till the end user could use 4G and we still have no clue how far off that is. Last week we wondered if it was days, weeks, or a month or more, well that same question still stands but people are already posting donations, just a little confused, is there a release date I don't know about?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
no, kpoz is starting gears to begin the donation process. the people who are paying already are, well, paying because they want to do it early. kpoz just said to prepare your wallet for now. i'll talk to him after he gets back from his snowy shenanigans and find out details (tron kept me from talking to him last night hah).
[EVO 4G Android Development] xhazyx:
It's not just that we Know it's possible.... it's that we already have a confirmed connection to wimax from a CM Rom. So IT IS WORKING, it just has to be implemented in the ROMs going out to us normal everyday users. Which shouldn't take more than 1 or 2 weeks (don't quote me on this).

But again it is WORKING as of right now...

That said it is fair to hold off on ur donation til u have it on ur phone, if u want

Yeah I hosted a party this weekend so I've been extremely busy and drunk so I haven't been keeping up. At least everything is on track.

Side note: seeing tron today and can't wait.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
I would say it would be fair to wait until it makes it into a nightly. At this point it's being hacked with a custom kernel. AKA it's a proof of concept. Nothing wrong with donating early ... but I would definitely consider it that: donating early.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Haha see a lot of lawyers now yapping with excuses not to donate. You actually think these devs would hold out? It's a wrap, shift himself has even used it. Plus donate because you support your devs and want them to continue to support your phones not because you want something out of it. Flame away but I don't care, man up and pay these guys for getting it done, you want 4G so bad, flash sense, unbelievable
[EVO 4G Android Development] cmart4:
understand your point if view. this is for the devs that busted their balls and gave up many, many of their free hours to work on this. having said that, pay when you feel is the right time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Can't argue with that, figured it was my turn on the soap box haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Check the op, plus shift himself and others have tested it. Not sure what else your looking for? Did you get a chance to add your name to the pool yet?
[EVO 4G Android Development] donatom3:
Wait isn't the donate link on the first post the one we're supposed to use?
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Maybe they should make the test rom available for thoes that donate? Or does that brake any rules?
[EVO 4G Android Development] -shift-:
maybe provide the nightly test roms for those that "donate" a monthly fee? *snicker*

seriously, no, we all know that model doesn't work nor is it accepted on xda.
[EVO 4G Android Development] stangdriverdoug:
Yeah kind of figured. Well however it gets figured out...4g will be available for us eventually and the developers are going to get there money. Im sure if we donated it to cyanogen he would make sure the funds make it to the guys that made it happen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
Check the op, there is a link to donate to

Not sure what the confusion is here, click donate and give what you pledged, the end. Let's not reinvent the wheel here
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
STATUS UPDATE!

Here's where are are folks:

---->We have successfully connected to the Wimax service on CM and pulled down speeds upwards of 17mbps<----

However, we still have to iron out the automagic details. The reason there hasn't been an alpha release ROM for people to test yet is because we have had to manually add an IP route for the wimax0 interface. We are actively working on getting this step finished, and once it is complete, it will be ready for public testing.

And of course there are other little details like the fact that we haven't implemented the off functionality just yet and the only way to start the connect process is to turn the screen off and on. Haha, small details but they make the difference between a "dev implementation" and an alpha or a beta.

No ETA of course, but soon, very very soon(tm).

Edit: also, for those curious about donating - if you are planning on donating and want to wait until you see a working alpha rom, that is totally understandable, and no one will fault you for that. But for those who want to donate now and who have already donated, I can give you my personal guarantee that I won't stop working on this until it is in a CM nightly and beyond. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Shinzul:
Also - I'm sorry I wasn't around much this weekend. My fiancee was in town and we were taking care of her special needs sister this weekend to give her parents a break. We just got back home from seeing santa, or "hoho" as Jackie says :).

On a side note, this thread has slowed down considerably now that proof of concept has passed and its in the wild for a few select testers. Ironic now that its on the cusp of being sent to the masses this place is a ghost town. Maybe folks don't want to show their face since they pledged haha?

[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:
not really sure how that applies to my companies exchange security policy that doesn't work well with the app?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dj_L:
Won't be long. 2.3 source is released, looks like lots of fixes in email app. Don't know if anybody has confirmed that the 404 is actually fixed though (FYI this is only a problem for Exchange 2010 SP1, and Email from Android 2.2.1). Easy enough to work around though, delete the mobile profiles. I have a couple of environments with only a handful of Android devices at each, with no iPhones or WinMo (I'm just plain lucky), and lots of BES at both, so pretty easy for me to justify. :-)

xlGmanlx, FYI, there are some copies of email.apk from 2.2 floating around, you can remove the existing email app and drop in the old one and it will work fine with your Exchange server. I'm also eventually going to attempt to back port to stable, but with my schedule, we'll probably have a relatively stable 2.3 based CM by the time I get done with it...we'll see what the CM team does with the gingerbread branch soon enough.
[EVO 4G Android Development] xlGmanlx:

[EVO 4G Android Development] justgregit:
Exchange works for both sense and AOSP for me, but the setup is a little different. Since there is no "domain" in AOSP I set it up using domain\username, and it worked fine. Not sure your company works but if you are having issues because of that you can try it. Also there are third party apps that should work, I've heard "Touchdown" is good but haven't tried it. That was what the IT guys at my job were using until I showed them how to get the domain settings correct.
