4G wasn't an issue for me before but now that I moved to an area with 4G it can actually be useful to me.
Mrono - $5 (for now)

The CM6 team is pretty good, I think they are the best bet to actually get it working, if they can't...you guys might have a tough decision to make!

I'm hoping you guys get it because even tho my opinion on that rom isn't very good, a lot of people love it.

wow they confirmed no 4G? sorry to say that's a deal breaker for me, I just flashed RC2 and was playing with it... I live in a 4G city and was hopeful, but if I got nothing to hope for... sorry to say I will be moving on.

Too bad - they did some great work.

Stopped playing with cyan's rom cuz i knew they could not figure out 4g to work with their kernel and build. Guess everyone is human lol.

That confirmation is only for 6.0.. 6.1, on the other hand, is another matter.

Swyped from my EVO via the XDA App

Wow. CM6 team is awesome, but this is a dealbreaker. It is like saying here is a Ferrari but it can only go 65 MPH.

If you're not willing to put some money in the pot and hope for the best, why even comment? If no 4G is a *deal breaker* for you then take your month-long member status and find the ROM that works for you. No need to even comment.

Put me down for $20.

Cyanogen mod Roms and kernels are really the best out in the open source arena for Android hands down. They are not rethemed, apt removed blah blah blah roms from phone vendors which makes them very buttery smooth as some say. I've used every Rom on xda for evo and I have 4g in kc with very fast speeds... like 10mbps in some areas but I go back to cyan cause there are never any delays in scrolling, opening apps, switching between apps, you name it... hands down the best.

Anyway, I'm in for $20.

not to start any flames, but it basically says that my opinion on the internet is worthless unless I'm willing to cough up money?

it's the internet... everyone's opinons are equally worthless. This is the tread I found out about no 4G in Cyanogen, so just deal man.

Just for clarification...

Are the donations being made once 4G is available on CM6?

Or are they being given right now in hopes that 4G might possibly some day come to CM6?

There's zero chance for it to be in 6.0 since its being released RSN.

Madcoder has been working on it. Its not that we don't think its important, the issue is that its a massive amount of nontrivial work.

Hear, hear! Well said, Kiraly.

This thread was started to thank the CM6 team for their efforts in the form of monetary support.

Furthermore, we are attempting to show them that 4G is truly important to us, and that we're willing to pay to have it on our devices.

I know he's working on it, and I appreciate that it takes a massive amount of work.

That is the purpose of this thread. We appreciate your efforts, and we are hoping to contribute some money to the cause.

Your time is worth money, and if it takes more time and more people to compile and write the code for 4G on CM6, we want to pay you for it.

I called it 2 months ago....

That's too bad, I was really looking forward to using CyanogenMOD on the Evo... No matter now anyways, since I'm getting the Epic. Hope it works out guys!

    thread cleaned. lets stay on topic please. no need to roam into q thread and down the efforts of other individuals. so some are mad that wimax does not work in cm as of yet. those same people feel mislead or told it would be in cm by now. to kill all end all, i personally have never said it would be tomorrow. that said there are only two individuals working on getting this working to my knowledge. those two people are me and shinzul. we devote a ton of time daily/nightly to the project. though its not finished yet it is still closer then anyone else has openly come to getting it to work. much more is involved at the coding level then just dropping in a few lines and watching it go. for a while it was only me poking around looking for the solutions to major issues in getting wimax into cm. shinzul has recently joined my efforts shedding light on much needed java issues. one thing all who wanna complain need to understand is we are working hard on this and making progress. but we do have our own jobs and lives to live. on that same note... no one should ever be demanded to produce any project here on XDA. we are a development community. sure there are roms with everything working and sure they are easier to flash and live with. but every once in a while a peoject comes long and devs strive to do the "undoable". those projects find their way to the development section. no need to hate on a couple guys who wanna devote their time to doing something that hasnt been done before. of course no one asks anyone to believe with blind faith. but it prolly best to either contribute, support the effort, or (i know this may alao be thinking outside the box) not posting at all.

    so please stay on topic and stop trying to start drama for no reason. its all really no contribution what so ever to get mad because its not done yet.

    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...

    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. :)

    What's up guys. How's it goin?

    :eek:

    Nobody will answer just for simple fear of missing that date. Honestly im praying and hoping an alpha build before christmas but no one really knows. Honestly I don't feel any closer then last month but at least with shinzul's post we know its almost here.

    Just to give everyone an idea of how far we've come...

    This time last month (November 20, 2010), in CM6, the following was working:

    1) Start the wimax driver
    2) Uhh...

    Right now in CM6, the following is working:

    1) Start the wimax driver
    2) Scan for a network
    3) Connect to a network
    4) Obtain an IP address
    5) Route the IP's correctly
    6) 4g speeds!

    I'd say we are a lot farther than last month ;) I know it doesn't feel that way until you actually have something in your hands to test with, but believe me, it is better off for all involved for us to release a user-friendly version that works out of the box for everyone instead of a crappy version that works for some people, but not all.

    naw. our devs wish to be the only ones with AOSP 4G, so they'll just sit on their nifty lil electronic thrones and enjoy the begging from the masses for a few months. it entertains them to see so many grovel at their mad skillz. not letting us have any good toys or tools or fun configuration options is proven by their track record.

    I sit upon a throne of technology looking down upon the lowly pleebs. I shall eventually release an alpha out of pity.

    Thanks for the laugh ;)
