I am a high school student and I really love programming. I would love to play around with the kernel code and test it on a dev phone. Do students get any discounts on them like some development products have huge discounts for students?

First off, important to say I'm not new to Sprint, I'm a Sprint Preferred customer.I have the $99.99 plan, with roadside and I'm going to add the insurance to my EVO tonight.I've never tried to get any SERO or discounts etc but I'm semi annoyed I'm paying $10 dollars for 4G I don't have mostly because I learned so many of you got a 2 year $10 dollar a month revolving credit on that. This was not offered to me. In fact, Sprint told me to return the phone if I don't like it and they would put me back on my old phone/plan.
I was shocked when they said that, I've been a customer for 10 years and I've never asked for anything "extra" or free.I'm half tempted to return it and get on my wifes Verizon family plan to be honest.ANYWAY if I do keep the phone, what discounts are out there to off set my being pissed off?I've heard you can get 10% off for having an AOL email. I've heard they offer a discount for credit union members etc. Whats out there that works and how do you get them?Actually does anyone have a working Retention department phone number too?
I ran across a nice app for students on AppBrain. Seems to run smooth on my phone, and syncs with Google real well. The dev also seems pretty active with the updates. Grades: Student Organizer Grades: Student Organizer - Android app on AppBrain

I'm gonna try to get an employee discount instead, maybe 15% or 25% off. My question is, do I activate this discount before getting my EVO or do it after? I don't wanna lose my SERO and not get the employee discount either.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a question for those in the know. I am interested in purchasing an android-capable phone in the near future..I really like what it offers. My brother has a G1 (Mobile USA), which has piqued my interest in the Android platform. My question is: Is the app store synced with every kind of Android-capable phone, or just that specific phone? If I was to buy a HTC Magic, would it use the same app store as the G1? AFAIK, some other major platforms, such as Symbian do not sync, and it's 'every phone for itself', but I was thinking that Android was more synergic.

I have my HTC Desire and the Facebook application is the worst thing it should happen. It sync all my friends phone numbers and mixes with all my other phone numbers. Can some one in clear state of mind ask Android/Facebook to give us the option to select what friends we want in our phone list? I like the Facebook app but deleted it once it messes my phone!

The problem with this is I'm using up my 3g internet on my phone a lot more and i'd like to do things like update my apps and check twitter more but i'm scared i'll run out. By plugging my phone into my laptop, is there a way to borrow the internet from my laptop for my phone?

I made a very simple application to start playing around with Android development. It works fine on the emulator, but it gives me the following error when I try to install it on my HTC Hero (v1.5): The application Simple Dial (process com.foo.simpledial) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. (Force Close button) and on in the Eclipse console, I get the following message:

I did put 'android:debuggable="true"' inside the application tag on the manifest.xml
I was wondering if there is an SMS activity log somewhere on the Hero / Android phone?
I could do with the telephone number of a text message I received but deleted without thinking!
If I could find a log then I could get the number? I'm not interested in the text itself, just the number from which it came.

View 2 Replies View Relatedwhat i was thinking, was, does anyone make like a little "mini phone" that works over blue tooth?i was thinking something like that would be cool to have. leave your big x in the dock when you in the car, or on your desk, or somewhere out of harms way when you go to work, and just carry you "mini phone" with you in your pocket. make calls, and etc from it. i was thinkin something that looks like a small flip phone would be cool. have any of you guys ever seen anything like that? or think it would be useless?
View 24 Replies View RelatedI would be grateful for your well-informed suggestions.In my own naivety I purchased a Blackberry Curve, and it's next to useless to me since I don't have the web service (too expensive), it doesn't transfer *.html or *.pdf files by USB, audio transfer app is buggy, and in what it does do, it's a pain to use.I need a device to use as a PDA (calendar & tasks lists to sync with desktop software such as Outlook or similar), to read *.rtf & *.pdf documents, use *.html & JavaScript files, play audio files, take text memo notes, a simple IDE on which I can do some simple programming (preferably in Java, but another language would be ok), and use a flashcard app, such as Anki. All file transfers must be by USB.Oh, and I don't need it to have a phone at all, so some other device such as that Android iPad clone would be OK if it operates well, reliably, and will likely last at least a couple of years.I'm severely limited financially, so I need to choose the cheapest one which fulfillls these needs. I'd prefer a keyboard, but if any much cheaper with touchscreen only can fulfill these requirements, it will do. Buying a used device such as from ebay would keep the price down, but I need advice on selecting one, considering that I chose something as terrible as a Blackberry.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy Android app needs to retrieve information about a contact (namely, phone number and name.) I wrote some code using getContentResolver().query() In the results, I am seeing that the name is being returned, and other information like when I last contacted that person, but not the phone number. What am I doing wrong?
The code:
Log.w("MyApp", "requesting " + phonesUri.toString());
Cursor contactCursor = context.getContentResolver().query(person, null, null, null, null);
contactCursor.moveToFirst(); for (int i = 0; i < contactCursor.getColumnCount(); i ++) {
Log.w("MyApp", contactCursor.getColumnName(i) + ": " + contactCursor.getString(i));}
