Really appreciate you bringing this to our epic's, I assume there' no wimax since CM11 still doesn't have it activated?

A little update, I'm giving up on this. Way too many bugs and I can't keep up with them due to me not knowing how to fix and me being too busy with school and work. If anyone wants to port roms to this device i can pm you the guide i used. For now, I think I'll just delete the thread :(
