CyanogenMod incorporated this week. Thoughts? - LG Optimus G Pro

So yesterday it was all over Google+, CyanogenMod is now incorporated and the team will now be able to do massive expansion and devote full time hours to the development of cm due to a 7 million dollar loan. I'm thinking we just witnessed history. Anyone else?

I am thinking that now they will want to pay back the loan and in the end make money. Meaning fewer free releases and more pay per use releases.

They can't charge for CyanogenMod because its open source, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them charge for certain add ons and services and use that to fund their efforts. I would definitely expect cm to get exponentially better over the next year.

I'm sure they have a plan to monetize their offering or they wouldn't have been able to secure the capital. They ought to just tell everyone how that's going to happen. People aren't just handing out $7m without a business plan.
I'm happy for them, it's great to see hard working individuals create companies and make jobs for other folks out there.

More competition and choices on OS the better. Look forward to the new changes.

I agree with this. I went ahead and purchased it as well to support the dev and to get updates from the market.
The dev let the users/ members of XDA to be free and exclusive. This by no means cheaping out the dev. He wanted us to have it. Hes the one who let us have it for free. He put it on the android market for people who would be using different sites like Android central, droid tech, etc.

Galaxy s4 Lte advanced

Guess what was just announced? A new s4 with lte advanced technology, a snapdragon 800 processor, and 32 gig built in storage. Wtf Samsung? I just bought the s4 and now your dishing out a new version making owners of this phone feel disappointed. I'm sick of this bs. I want to make sure I have the top Samsung gadget and for you guys to release a new one 2 weeks after I bought mine is complete bs. I'm no longer going with samstung

Rather than complain, go sell your gs4, buy some cheap phone, save the rest, and wait for the advance to come out and go buy it.

I figured as much. Beside, T-mobile going to start rolling it out by the end of 2013. They will start out lil by lil and im sure by the time it get to your city, something bigger and better than this one you complaining about will be out......when it comes out sell it than.
New technology going to come out every month, samsung will continue rolling out 4 different version of the same thing, either get with the program or well...dont. There's the htc, there's the xperia, and some other i can't think of that i actually care for.

Awesome news for T-Mobile!

A little bird told me starting on the 28th JUMP will no longer have a 6 month (180 day) waiting period to upgrade! You will also be able to upgrade an UN-Limited number of times per year!
Also, the international calling plan will change for the better, allowing better rates for calling to cell phones. I'll update this when I learn more.

Wow...talk about never ending EIP balance.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
Trust me, I'm aware. But hey, to each their own!
The catch is you have to have paid 50% of your eip balance. It's actually worse than every 6 months. People already signed up for jump are granfathered in unless they stop and restart JUMP.

You are almost right, T-Mobile will only pay off half of the EIP balance. So you are right, but just a little off.

I would say the first part about the Jump program is true but not the 2nd. It would be a bad business model and money loser for T-Mobile to allow any and everyone to upgrade unlimited times a year. The only way I could see this happen is if they reward their customers who have been here through all the BS like me, Ive been with T-Mobile since 2003, but I doubt it.
Well you can keep your grandfathered features, but customers always have unrealistic expectations. Not saying that yours are. And I would read post #6 in this thread, it kinda helps explain how the changes work. I honestly prefer the original JUMP plan.

The terms have not been finalized as per TMOBILE. What was posted/leaked was a rough draft. Noting is set in stone yet

This is per management at T-Mobile. This will be happening, you will be able to keep your old JUMP plan if you wish, however.
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
So 2 questions...
1 is the 50% cost based on price new or current value?
2 will grandfathered customers be required to enter the new terms upon a JUMP into a new phone with EIP?

It would be half of purchased price.
Well I would assume not, if an account already has JUMP on it, we upgrade your phone through a separate system built for JUMP. If I find out differently I'll update the thread accordingly.

My understanding is that there will be more free countries to call from mobile to mobile, and better rates in general. This is how it was explained to me.

Mint does have that, but it gives you a monthly budget.
Mint will look at your spending and tell you when you start to get close or go over those limits.
It also uses the same financial database that all the banks use, so its as safe to use as checking your bank website.

As we wait..(something to pass time)

Does anyone else check the other carrier forums? All the other carriers are receiving their devices but I'm also reading the sudden issues with complaints about the screen quality, battery complaints, issues with the Samsung rebate not going through errors,WiFi issues,slow internet,spen dead spots, and a speaker phone crackle. And all of us are worried about the release date lol. Which of these sudden glitches and flaws would concern you the most?

I agree. We will have a heads up on what to look for. Im coming from a rooted s3 and still fairly happy with it but can't pass up the trade in deal. If its not the right phone ill return it and wait for something better. My note 10.1 2014 edition handles anything my s3 can't. Thanks tethering and unlimited data.
