Of course, if you're willing to jump into the C code and try to figure it out, then there's all sorts of things that could be worked on -- but that's a lot of effort, and after looking at it for 6 months, I'm still not much use at it, so I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else, unless you're interested for your own edification.
My suggestion is just to find the things you use your phone for, the features that are lacking, and try to figure out why. Like the folks here have done with MMS -- you might not be able to get everything working, but you'll start to figure out what works and what needs fixing.

I am a coder by nature, and while C may be far ahead of what I am actually good at I know that learning any programming language only advances knowledge and capacity in others. So if you can point me somewhere to get started I'm ready (Though it may take a while before I am good enough to be useful )
My current complaints are the same ones everyone else has i.e. camera, gps, battery life, and SD access. If there is something specific in any of those areas you can point me to work on (particularly the camera or SD access) I would appreciate it! Side note: MMS doesn't work with smartphones on my carrier last I was aware Don't really ever use them, but I hope they catch up with things soon, as I really like their rates and customer service, the phone selection and network features just leave much to be desired.

Well I have both so if anyone has any nbh files they wanna try out let me know. I also have a native 2.1 android device too.
