MIUI and WiMax - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to figure out, how does the Nexus S 4G on MIUI have WiMax but the Evo doesn't. Is it because no one is trying or is it because of something else??
GB version btw.

The Nexus S 4g only has WiMAX working on their MIUI v4 roms. I believe Scott helped with that. WiMAX is being worked on for the EVO 4g just have to give it time. Toast and Shinzul are working on WiMAX on ICS.

If anything they're working on the 3D evo then maybe the ogevo

I just ordered a 3D for $150 (No Contract) I see its hard for 4g to work on a stock rom with that one

I got it from http://www.cowboom.com/ mines will come Monday so I'll see the quality. It said 6 and had very small fine scratches on the screen so knowing that, its probably almost new

New to EVO~Is 004 camera working with CM7 nightlies?

Hello everyone... Just got my EVO today, its 004 hardware, researched and there was talk of new drivers not released by HTC to make the camera work. My question is simple, and I've searched, but the massive amount of threads here w/ Evo, I couldn't find an answer. Will the camera work with CM7 nightlies and hardware 004? Thanks for your response. ~m00n
Bump...
Can anyone help me out? I know for seasoned Evo users, this is a simple question, but I've searched and can not find a clear answer. Have the camera and wimax issues been resolved for the nightlies? Any help will be greatly appreciated...

If you go to the CM 7 with WiMAX in my sig, it will work with hw0004. That being said DO NOT flash the extra kernel as it does not work on hw0004.

When I follow the link for the CM7 w/ Wimax in your sig, the listed bugs seem that Wimax isn't stable unless plugged in. Have you found this to be an issue on your end or have you found a way around it?

Its still in alpha stages, so best thing i found is after the phone has been on a long time, i just reboot if 4g doesn't connect. Its random, some times it connects no problem, other times it requires the reboot. Thanks for the thanks.

This rom is actually my daily driver but with the Savaged.Zen kernal. I find no real faults other than when turning off wimax, to get 3G to work, I have to reboot my phone. Not really a big deal for me. Else wise WiMax has been very stable for me. That Kernal, i've been pulling 7 down and 1 up and my camera works just fine. You don't have to use the Kernal they say you have too. Just a heads up.
Oh ment to put that I myself am running a white evo with 0004 HW

(q) no 2.3 for epic?

Sorry, but i don't understand why our Epic doesn't have Android 2.3 and my old HTC Touch Pro CDMA from Sprint does. Isn't that ridiculous?
We don't have the development community of the touch pro. They basically built gb from scratch we just don't have the manpower..
cd's or tapes?
That's verry sad.

agreed .......
It's because they use HARET, which more or less boots into Windows Mobile, then boots into Android(which gets GPS, data and stuff like that from the WinMO Haret boot)
Sorry, won't do it again.
in before the kick.
once the nexus 4g comes out we'll prolly have straight port.
Wer have gingerbread but it's not fully functional. Cm7. Tmiller also got a nexus s rom to boot on the epic. Still needs work tho. Just wait to sprint gets the nexus s. Big things will come

Because it's not like that has stopped any other device from already porting the Nexus S ROM. Sadly the above is true, Epic has no community. Most has left for the Shift, and even before that we barely had a community to start with.
I have a feeling that the Epic will get an offical Gingerbread from Sprint...
Wouldn't that be nice to have.

Whoever said yes is ignorant. Epic 4G Touch is a WiMax only phone.
Thanks ... so theirs a specific chip that is built in ??? and what rom are your running cuz my phone reboots alot on wicked sensation rom V1 ( and have u test it out, if so do you have the same issue?)
Thanks
No it is not possible. The exynos is only compatible with WiMax. That is why the skyrockets (LTE SIIs) have snapdragons in them. Not to mention the Epic Touch doesn't have any LTE radios in it.

You guys make me smile.
But on topic, if one were to access a better network it wouldn't be through Wimax at all. You say this phone is Wimax only, do you not have 3,2- or 1g?

I apologize, have I misunderstood something?
I am obviously not saying this phone can access LTE..... But saying it is ONLY compatible with WiMAX is false, unless Ive been using WiMAX for 3,2, and 1g for half a year without knowing and without the WiMAX radio not being on most of the time.... And WiFi, albeit related is still... Not WiMAX....
I see more and more of this misinformation and it is not only wrong, its counter-productive. If you know the answer to his question (no, in this case) tell him. No need for arrogant speculation on top.. Or something...
The end

Tethering WiMAX for something as demanding as ps3 or xbox will likely be a heavy load. Keep in mind , we have a 1.5 Mbps uplink cap.. Its rough, but thats part of why we get our price...

If it were to get KK, it would be in an unofficial capacity and would not be fully-functional, since neither WiMax or the FFC would have working drivers.

I would dare say the EVO is legendary in its own right. It was the first 4G phone on Sprint, and was pretty revolutionary for its time and the first EVO in a line of good handsets to carry that name. The phone had a ton of development for it, and it still has support to this day. The biggest problem is the lack of driver support for both WiMax and the FFC, as I've already mentioned.

I am purchasing a new LCD and digitizer for my evo 4G (supersonic) since the screen got destroyed right before I bought my Evo 4G LTE (jewel). I wanted to see if there were any plans for a kitkat ROM for the evo 4G because I recently installed android 4.4.2 on my roomate's kindle fire and it runs amazing! I heard Google was trying to make kitkat run better on older devices. I think 4.4.2 could be great for the Evo 4G. I have high hopes that when I fix this phone someday there might be a 4.4.2 ROM available. I miss this device and the community that came along with it. Can't wait to get back into playing with this device again haha.

Biggest thing holding back kk is lack of a recovery that can properly flash it. I know of one guy who has already built kk but can't get recovery working.

I am STILL rocking a Evo 4g but running 4.1.2 Rom (for the Google NOW experience) and love it. Just got a second one and playing around with some Sense Roms that will have everything working. Some (Jellybread 1.4 for example) are very well designed with a Holo look and feel.
I don't see why it should be too hard to 'skin' a Sense theme to bring you Kit Kat goodness!!!

Is there any new updates on the CM 11 kitkat Rom unofficial? I've been itching to try this out and see the improvement on the OG EVO. I really want to see if kitkat can really run smooth on a low spec device. I've had a few JB ROMs that ran decently smooth.. with over clock at least.
I was trying to build a recovery with SELinux enabled for this, but it was too large. I read that I could probably change the compression to make the kernel smaller, but never got around to doing it, as my newer devices took precedence. I don't even remember where I left off with it, to be honest .

If you do end up looking into it and need testers, I just successfully replaced the LCD and Digitizer on my OG Evo. It is ready to flash whatever I throw at it
