Good news everyone! [/Prof. Farnsworth]
The bright and talented cvpcs has offered to be our maintainer for CyanogenMod. All he needs now...is a Bionic!
We *do* have 2nd init working on the Bionic, all we need is to wait for koush to get his Droid 3 and write CWM for that, then we can have it ported over to the Bionic (literally almost exactly the same phone) which should take not more than a week.
SO! We need to get cvpcs a Bionic! We have a paypal setup that he will get the money for the Bionic and anyone and everyone who is willing to donate *any amount* can donate if they please.
Clicky:
Our goal is $630*, to get it straight from Verizon! PM me with how much you donated and I'll put your name on a list in the OP! Thanks to everyone who will donate in advance.
Total so far: $630+ We've reached our goal!

*Including tax
9/11/11 update: CVPCS just wanted me to let you guys know this: This will not be *his* Bionic. It will be the community's. He wants everyone to know that and he also says that if there's ever a time where he cannot be the maintainer anymore, he will gladly hand it over to the next person who wants to maintain it. He's not getting this phone because we're throwing money at him and he wants the phone, he's getting this so he can help the community and for us to be able to run CM7 on our devices.
GLiDE-68 just sent you $10...
I think you'll figure it out by the email address similarity... LoL...

I think a 2nd init ROM on the Bionic is going to be kind of a waste unless you have the extended battery.
I tried CM4DX and I was lucky to get 10 hours out of a full charge. Installed ApeX RC3 and was getting 16+ hours on a full charge.
My Bionic is currently giving me about 10 hours of usage without switching off 4G, so I'm guessing that would be about 6 hours on a 2nd init ROM.
I hope I'm wrong... good luck guys!
I was getting 16+ on CM4D2 Froyo and GB, with GPS always on and normal usage. Let's try to keep the thread on topic, though.
Donated 20 this morning. Cant wait for these beast to have CM7, finally got it on my DX enjoyed it for a few months then got a Charge and missed CM7 instantly.
donated $10 to a good cause!
can't wait to start tinkering!
I hope 10 bucks help
15 inbound!
Thanks to everyone who's donated so far! Just hit the $300 mark (about)!
Also, see the OP for an update and a message from cvpcs himself!

TOTAL BOUNTY SO FAR: ~$7,808.55 AS OF 7Mar2008
As of March 7th this thread will be closed and we will no longer be accepting any more pledges!
WHY:
1. It is becoming a logistical problem to contact everyone should a driver ever be made and released.
2. Leaving the donations going encourages people to wait so they can get more money. I think we've raised plenty enough for someone to be motivated to work on this.
3. It doesn't appear we will ever solve this problem (at least without the help of HTC).
4. Donations have slowed to a trickle anyway.
BIG THANKS TO Jimmyy WHO HELPED KEEP THE RUNNING TOTAL!!!
Problem: Our Kaisers currently lack proper D3D (direct 3d) drivers and are therefore performing at a fraction of their actual capabilities. This results in poor video playback, poor camera/image performance, and bad performance in video games and other video-intensive software.
As of yet, HTC has not given a reasonable response to our petition, many calls, and emails. They have given us no reason to believe they will be providing a solution at any time in the future.
EDIT: It has come to my attention that the above statement is not 100% accurate - it's slightly more complicated than that. Chainfire (the dev who is pushing the charge on getting these drivers working) was kind enough to provide a more accurate statement:
Chainfire said:
"Our Kaisers currently lack drivers for hardware accellerated display functionality. A full set of these drivers would significantly speed up ALL drawing operations, including the user interfaces of normal applications, video playback, games and 3D rendering."
"There are different parts to these drivers, namely for 2D (user interfaces, video, images) and 3D graphics (games). It is not yet sure even IF these drivers will be available soon, and if they are, which parts will be accellerated."
"The plan, ofcourse, is to provide a full set. Though this will most likely not include a speed up for the camera."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The solution: We have people here working on getting hardware-accelerated display drivers working on our Kaisers. (See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=339745)
This thread is here so anyone who wishes can pledge money to the person who brings us the solution. Just post how much you are willing to give and I will add you to this first post.
DO NOT OFFER MONEY IF YOU'RE NOT WILLING TO GIVE IT WHEN AND IF THE SOLUTION BECOMES AVAILABLE. THAT'S WORSE THAN TAKING HOME FOOD FROM AN ALL YOU CAN EAT BUFFET AND YOU WILL BE SHUNNED AND RIDICULED. FOR THE REST OF YOUR DAYS, PEOPLE WILL CALL YOU A YELLOW BELLIED COWARD.
If you can't give a lot, offer a little, if you can't offer a little, don't worry about it.
(Whoever gets these drivers working, you'll need to send us your paypal address. )
Note: No obligation to pay up if HTC, AT&T, or some other company comes up with the solution first - we've already given them enough.
So I'll put up $10 - I know it's modest but I'm poor as hell.
PLEASE MAKE YOUR PLEDGE IN $$$USD$$$. I'M NOT A MATH GUY.

for a complete set of working drivers i would pay $50.00 for being smarter than those morons at htc.
and for a set of drivers that at least improve me experance $20.00
Put me down for $50 to the person that figures it out.
As I stated before, this thing is SLOOOWWWW. :-(
How would you contact those who "pledge" a donation. I'm guessing the end total will be significantly less than what was offered over the period of testing and development as people move on, lose interest or just don't pay.
I'm going to pledge $10 as my use is email and word documents mostly. I'm business oriented and look for the fastest ROM possible to keep up with my multitasking. I don't have any audio or video loaded on my Tilt.
I just want to support free thinking and hard work. Just contact me via PM or email and I'll send the money.
Dave
@Dave
I was planning on contacting people via PM when the goal is reached, or if the thread got really long, having some people help me.
That said, don't offer money if you're not willing to pay. That's no different than stealing.
CURRENT BOUNTY: $90
I'll put up $50 just because I'm embarassed that I lack the brain power (and time) to figure this out on my own.
I should have money after the first of the year, I'd definitely put up some money then!!

as this thread grows update the first post with the user names and pledge amounts of all people who want to contribute.
in my opinion if you pledge to contribute and dont you might ought to be banned from this forum. as the name xda-DEVELOPERS suggests we DEVELOP. weather its because have the knowledge to write the code for some of the amazing programs found here or because we donate and appreciate and promote the people who spend countless hours away from their families and in front of their pc thinking and making break throughs that we all use.
20 euros
For a full set of working drivers that improve the performance.
Unless htc fixes this , they wont get my money lol.
I will give $50 bucks to whoever fixes this problem which is a pain in the neck. I am checking the forums 10 times a day hoping something pops up. Hopefully soon. This thread great idea btw for driver development encouragement.
50 bucks to whoever solves this
I hope that this doesnt make people just work for themseves instead of work together

Hmm got a point there.
Someone should collect the money and split it when the devs work together on this.
I don't think there is anything wrong with a little friendly competition!
It's not like we're dealing with a whole lot of money here anyway in the general scheme of things.
I see the more likely scenario being that the dev finishes his work and then sits around and waits to get the most out of this thread. Although I don't think any of our devs would do that as it is blatantly dishonest...

I updated the first post with numbers. Let me know if I missed anyone.
why not simply use Chainfire's paypal account on his taisertweak site instead of empty talks ?

BUT if the developer waits to let the money go up he/she is risking someone else nipping in there before them and claiming the money!
Hey, guys, need more exposure? Do I frontpage this thread?
I'll offer up US$50 to he/she/them that improves the video drivers a bit.
Further to some of the comments above, I tend to believe that if people work together (here), they credit each other fully in writing at all opportunities (community spirit, etc.). I therefore don't suspect that someone will get "greedy" and furthermore believe that if there are 2 or 3 people who end up solving the problem, they will happily split the money.
Am I old-fashioned? Probably. Too trusting? Yes, (at least until crossed once...)
I think a "cash pool" will work just fine Personally, in my programming days many years ago, it was the "buzz" from finding a solution rather than the immediate reward that did it for me. Granted I was earning a salary at the time but tell me I'm wrong ...
Best regards and good luck,
Gary.

Incubus just permanently bricked his vogue and he don't have enough fund to get a replacement. The goal is $50. I can't fund at the moment since I don't have a pp acc.

Currently, we have 2 solution:
1. Get a new vogue from verizon, possibly long waiting time.
2. Get a old/broken vogue and replace the mb.
3. Buy a vogue from someone.

Whats his service? I got a verizon vogue mainboard good ESN. that is not bricked he can have. There is no display or digitizer...
verizon, luckily
awww. You guys are so nice
Very much appreciated.
I think I'm done with my Verizon XV6900 and I was gonna get rid of it for under $50 on eBay. It works perfectly but it has scratches on the body, not the screen. I am trying to get a Droid Eris this week. We can keep it in the family and I'll sell it to Incubus (or this fund) for $40.
Guys let me know what is going to to be the final solution. I am on standby to donate. Let me know. Incubus has done to much for all of us not to help him in his time of need.
Newbie here, but I appreciate all the work from him and others. I'm also on standby to donate. Will keep an eye on this thread.

Don't forget option 3: Buy Vogue from drkow19. I do not have 100% confirmation on this yet, but I believe I am getting an Eris later this week and Verizon ships their phones out fast to us here in Michigan. I could have my Vogue in the mail to Incubus by the weekend. I have a PayPal account, so once the $40 is collected we can see where we are. Let me know!!! I would like my Vogue to go back to work after I'm done with it.
Incubus, if i have i really help you out, but i can't for now, my magic got bricked in dev of new rom too cheerss man.
I will gladly contribute to this very worthy effort.
Just let me know which paypay account to fund you guys decide on.
Thanks...
Count me in for $5.00 ... Just let me know the PayPal to send it to.... when we are a go....

I donated 5 bucks on Sunday. Gotta support the effort!

Just donated $5.00.
Today the PayPal link is working perfectly.
Hey Guys,
NOTE: Hey guys, I will be busy for a few months. Between moving and holidays. EugeneKay will head this up. He has already spoken with the CM team and cyanogen.
He will put up the donation link so you guys can start feeding the money to him. He will take the money and buy the devices and ship them.
NOTE AGAIN: There is NO promised time frame on how long this will take. But cyanogen said he will do his BEST.
Let's all chip in and buy 3 nooks for the CM team. One should go to koush for recovery. and the other two can go to whomever wants them.
Let me know what you guys think. I did this with the G2. and it worked out quite well.
Thanks!
Disclaimer:
I have spoken with Cyanogen, and he has said that he will give the Nook Color a go. However, there is NO GUARANTEE OR TIMETABLE for a CM release on the Nook Color.
The Concept of Donating
It is my opinion that the best way to get CM onto the nook(and tablets in general) is to get Nook Colors sent out to the CM crew members who are interested in the device. So far, a total of 5 of these great devices have been put into the hands of devs, and I would like to continue the trend.
Please note that there are MANY problems with making CM into a tablet OS - the biggest of these(per cyanogen) is that the Android UI was designed for much smaller screens. Getting Nooks into the hands of people doing Android development work is great incentive for them to make it better. So, please just have faith in the CM crew. Anybody who has a CM-supported phone should be able to tell you how good their take on Android is, and I feel that CM is our best bet for a truly awesome Android experience.
Contribute with your Wallet
If you're interested in donating towards buying the CM crew some Nook Colors, there are to options to contribute. The easiest, and the one I would prefer, is for you to PayPal your donations(marked as a Gift) directly to [email protected]. If you are unable or unwilling to use PayPal, using a money order(made out in US $) is also possible. Please PM me and I will send you my mailing address, etc.
I will ultimately be handling the purchasing, decision-making on recipients, and shipping of these devices. Please remember, any donations are just that - donations. There are NO guarantees or strings attached. You're gonna have to have good faith.
If you have any concerns about donating via me, please know that I am not out to screw you, I will have absolute accounting transparency with your donations, and I will speak personally with anybody who asks. rhcp has done this shtick before with the G2(here), and he can vouch for me 100% on this. If you have any doubts, please feel free to email([email protected]) or twitter(@eugenekay) me and I will contact you as soon as I am able.
Spread the Word:
Do you want this to happen? I do! We have 5 Nooks sent out, but the more. the merrier! So, if you know somebody who has a Nook Color, and wants it to be better, show them this thread, tweet the shortlink( http://s.eugenekay.com/tkbxt ), or just give 'em a stern talking-to!

Update: Please mark your donations as a Gift - I will not be accepting anything sent as a Payment. There are two major reasons behind this: 1) PayPal takes a non-refundable 30c fee(even if I use the Refund button) on every transaction plus 2.9% of the total, and 2) I am not comfortable being "on the hook" for the amount of these donations if somebody were to file a dispute on them(it has happened to me in the past).
Update: The first Nook has been purchased! The lucky recipient is @NuroSlam(via Twitter). He is not a member of the CM team per se, but he has a lot of experience in working with Android, CyanogenMod, and integrated linux systems.
Update: The second Nook has been purchased! This one goes to koush, in the interests of getting Clockwork Recovery ported, which will make flashing .zips to replace the whole system in one go easy.
Update: The third Nook is ordered! Benji, aka TheDudesAndroid, will be picking it up tomorrow. Koush and BertoJG have been making good progress on Recovery, so he may be able to jump right into CM6(or 7?) and get us a Recovery-flashable build relatively quickly. Here's to hoping!
Update: Two more CyanogenMod team members, kmobs and cvpcs, have elected to help with the ongoing Nook Color efforts. They picked up their respective nooks over the weekend. I leave status updates to them, but the standard Cyanogenmod ETA still applies: "when it's ready".

I'll donate $20.
If we get close I can donate. I still need to buy one so I won't have much left.
Hell, I'll go in for twenty. I'd LOVE to see CM on this thing.
I assume that we'll work out the actual payment when we have enough pledges?
Might be hard to reach me over Christmas Break

You're a little new here to be the recipient of all these funds.. Can someone verify this dude is legit? I see a busy signature with donation links and stuff for sale.. Just want to make sure everyone feels comfortable sending him money..

Please PM or post your paypal.
I will make my share too.
I think this is a great idea. Did DJ agree to do something about it if he have a unit? (I guess so , but it is better to confirm, right? in case DJ is focusing on streak 5 or other devices, only on/off on streak 7)
Ive been in contact with dj_steve all day. He currently devs for a few devices. And yes dj is cool with me sending him the device. Im gonna be sending him it tomorrow.
My paypal is [email protected] please send it as a gift. There for no stupid paypal fees. Ill post the confirmation number tomorrow evening. Any amount is much apprecited and will help this device take off. Like i said im not here to rip anybody off. Just want help to elevate the cost of shipping and maybe a third of the device cost. Once i reach 150 or so ill stop taking donations. Thanks guys happy streaking. And just wait you folks aint seen nothin yet.

Maybe I just need to borrow someones PC.
There wont be a need update too 2.2.2 flash cwr through fastboot and dl the zip daveid or myself posted flash through cwr and boom rooted and on 2.2.2
Your donation is appreciated thank you much.

The Dell Streak 7 is on its way to the UK. Im still taking donations. The USPS does not give confirmation numbers for international stuff. unless you choose the top notch **** that costs 100$ +. So you guys hold on and get ready for the goods. There right around the corner.

First off I have never done anything like this, but it seems to gather a lot of interest from the developers and gives people the extra drive to help obtain root.
Make a pledge for the bounty for permanent Root of the Atrix HD. I will do my best to keep a running log on the main post of who has pledged and once root has been obtained I will also acknowledge them in the post and make them off the list. PayPal of the wining developer will be listed once confirmed.

Wow great start!
Put me down for $20.00
Perhaps a bounty can help persuade Dan Rosenberg to take a look a it. He's been very successful with Motorola devices.

To the Atrix HD community,
I have been in contact with a friend/fellow developer over in the Atrix 2 forums. He may be able to help with the root process for this phone. He isn't making any promises on getting root working, but he will be taking a look at the phone soon (at the latest, next week).
I'll put in $10. First time with a Motorola phone, so figured I should pay it forward.

whoever collects on this will have definitely earned iti
Put me down for 50...this is the first android I've had that I've had to wait for root, and I gotta say I have discovered allot about my own level of patience...or lack there of. Resulting in many sleepless nights at a terminal window picking and prodding at EVERY file, folder, or script I was allowed access to... I would like to reiterate, the payee will have well deserved it...good luck
Hey.
Im new, from germany..
Will get the phone in two weeks.
Great that you do all this for a root!!!
Will pay 25,- too if its possible!
