UPDATE: According to Enomther's twitter, he's already getting a MT4G from a donor
Ok I think we've gotten enough feedback in the other thread to start the poll up and collect votes.
For the record, I am not including Cyanogen in the poll. I know we all want him but he is busy and will not likely touch a sense-based phone. However I am including Zinx, who is another member of #TeamDouche and was kmob's recommendation to take over the CM6 port for the MT4G. Whosdaman and I both talked to him and he's on board with helping us with the CM6 port. His work is exclusive to CM, but he is likely our best bet for a successful port. If that's your cup of tea, I recommend you vote for him.
As of right now Zinx is the only one of these options we've contacted and that has even agreed to work on the MT4G. If another frontrunner emerges we will contact them as well and gauge their interest.
Lets get him a phone so he can start cooking up roms... if we want roms... we can all donate a little bit of money to get him a MT4G so he can work on them. You need to give to receive...
I know its not much but I can donate $5 to get him a MT4G does he have a Twitter so I can follow. Contact me in PM or Twitter when donations are ready to be given. @eleeo037.
I can donate some money tomorrow.

Every bit helps. His twitter is @zinxv.
I have to vote for evil. His work with sense roms on the nexus is awesome. his mt4g port to the nexus was the reason i bought it and sold the nexus... the n1 port was only lacking camera as well. So id love to have weekly updates from his roms as i had with the n1...As far as donations, im not greedy these guys put in a lot of time. Ive already donated $50 to evil and will end up doing the same for whatever developer comes up with a rom i use for months on end like i did evils nxsense series of roms. Im not a huge cyanogenmod fan so this is just my prejudice opinion haha

Yeah this was not intended to be a "let's donate to get CM working" thread. The goal is to stimulate development in the mt4g community. The best way to do that is to entice our favorite devs to come over here.
That being said...I think getting a working CM6 port for the mt4g would be a big shot in the arm for dev interest on our device regardless of whether or not you prefer CM.
I'm game to throw some money down I am dying for some cm on my phone!
I would definitely donate to whoever will create stable roms and will be active I don't want the dev scene to sure for this phone like the slide did
I think we all know that Cyanogenmod is not the only rom out there, however, it does have a very large pull in the community. Many developers use the CM rom to build off of and expand. I know that any of these developers could produce good roms, but whats going to produce the best results in the long run is having a CM rom on the Mytouch4G.
Just tell me when and where to donate.
Ok I'm anouncing Zinx the winner at 20 votes. Watch for my donation thread folks. Time to put your money where your mouths are
Lets get this ball rolling!

I've been a member of this forum couple years ago and loving it. You guys did a wonderful job releasing awsome roms and themes. Im always busy with life and everything, I'm currently working on a private theme for revolution 3.0. But here's something i can distribute to the forum. The first 2 users who sent me a msg will get a 25% off from Zagg.com
I hope some of these Devs contact you, please give it to them only as they deserve this and much more.

Would you would like CM7 on your Thunderbolt? Slayher is going to get it done with the communities help. He currently supports CyanogenMod on the Droid Incredible as part of the Team, http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Community_Members
If you can skip Dunkin Donuts, the bagel, etc for a day or two and donate this will not take very long. I will be posting this on several forums and linking back here, lets keep this thread clean and to the point of getting a TBolt into Tony's hands...hopefully on release day.
Donations for Slayher's ThunderBolt.
THANKS EVERYONE, Slayher has received enough donations from the community to support CM7 on the Thunderbolt!
Big Thanks to ChevyBoy as he donated the difference himself so Slayher can buy the TBolt today.
Bsthemes donated.

OK thats exactly what I'll do.
Slayher, I'm going to double my donation. Jcase is forwarding what I was going to give him, to you.
Donated! Cyanogen is the main reason I upgraded from the Droid X. I love my X, but really wanted an unlocked boot loader for this very reason
This just made my day!!! This is the reason I am getting another HTC after selling my Sexy Nexy and now working for VZW. Can't wait to get this thing going. Donation coming soon!
I'm all about CM7 support, donated!
I will gladly donate credit card number waiting

I'm in. God Speed.
Just donated.
donated! thanks for all the hard work on those incredible kernels!
Done. Good luck!
just donated. Preordered my Thunderbolt from Wirefly yesterday, but I doubt I'll actually activate it until CM7 is available. I'm running it on my Droid right now and loving it!
Awesome, just donated. I wonder if LTE is going to be a problem on CM for awhile?
Sent from my DInc using XDA Premium App
Awesome!! Good luck. Any ETA on CM7 support for the TB?
Nice! Can't wait to get rid of my Eris for the TB. Can't wait to play with Cyanogen on it.
Ok guys, It's that time again. Time to help a great dev get a Thunderbolt so we can continue to enjoy a wild variation of Roms and Themes.
@Drod2169, former and current dev on the Droid X and Samsung Fascinate (and broke ass college student lol) could use a little help raising the funds for a dev phone. Anyone who knows him, knows he has a real passion for android and dedicates A TON of time to it. You can rest assured your money is going to a great person in the android community. His work is always top notch and I can assure you it'll be worth a few bucks to throw in the pot. Ask any current or former Droid X & Fascinate user, Drod does not disappoint.
A few notes
-This was not his idea, he wouldnt ever ask.
-No one is demanding you give him money, if you have something against it, move along. No hater comments please.
NO one here is begging, it just gives us more Rom options, which is ALWAYS a great thing.
-You can verify the donation link by talking to @Drod2169 HERE on Twitter or E-mail him @ [email protected]
The Thunderbolt has a bright future with all this upcoming dev support, so throw in a few dollars and lets get the ball rolling!
Thanks to everyone who has/will donate.
And to everyone who doesnt donate, but you know you will still use Drods rom..... Come on guys Every little bit helps!
Thanks for your time.
Here is the VERIFIED donation link Any and all others are fake. Please use this one
Do it! You'll be glad! Good friend and great developer!

Couldnt agree more. He is as great of a guy as he is a developer.
Just wanted to verify for you guys that it is my donation link. Thanks guys
Don't have the Thunder Bolt, don't plan on it, but I sent a small token his way cause I love rubiX for the Droid X, drod rocks and so does rubiX! Without devs like drod and others, smartphones would be boring lol
Do I have to do this by myself?
I wish I could but I am a broke ass college student myself... lol Donate to Drod so all of us moving on to the T-Bolt can continue to see awesome dev work! If I wasn't giving my X to the GF I would part some of the sale profits to this effort.
For those that know me from Behold , G1, Vibrant, and MT4G forums across the web, I have switched to hacking the droid Charge. I was thinking of starting a webchat server for the droid charge devs so that we can all get together and talk. If you think this would be beneficial let me know. I'm the type to not do it if nobody is going to help out. But i think with the couple of Devs on here and the up and coming devs for the Charge it would be good to have an IRC chat to make it possible. Let me know what you think .
for my loyal TMO fans that are writing and asking why I switched. The Sensation. was a wonderful phone. But I moved to an area where Verizon dominant. I had to switch for work. I still love TMO and HTC but unless the Bionic can drop in the next few days, I'm sticking with the Charge for a lil while. Samsung was my first hacked phone so I like it. Been hacking and making roms for HTC for so long I forgot there was other challenges.
Umm... Droid Charge IRC
Welcome aboard Looking forward to meeting you in chat and using your mods/roms
Good to see another heavy hitter in the Charge Community. Welcome aboard.
Sent from my C64 over PSINet using my new, super cool 1200 baud modem.
Awesome, welcome aboard! Yeah the #charge irc channel is lit for everyone, hit that up and join in. Never owned an HTC device, so unfortunately never been able to sample your work, but another experienced dev is always welcome, really look forward to seeing what you cook up!
Loving all these hard-working devs helping us make this a truly great phone, now if only we could get koush to fix cwm so we could do nandroid backups, we would be set! I love trying new roms, I just don't often have the time it takes for a Titanium backup and restore. But that's a minor issue, can't wait for this weekend when ill have a chance to try out all these new roms, and maybe even the GB leak!
Welcome! Ya we do already have an IRC(as posted by imnuts), can't wait to see what ROMs/kernels/mods/themes/etc you release
Ahhhh. The link was hidden in the General Area. Sorry about that guys. Still getting used to this Droid Charge stuff.
