android-discuss, remove prompt on outgoing sms

1. My Phone Experiences and the Groups

Since this is the first week having an actual phone the thing I've 
learned is NOT to have android-developer delivered via email if it is on 
a Gmail account.  For those who don't have a phone  yet the  Gmail 
client does not have a  multi delete function like the email account so 
you have to go through deleting each "conversation."  That was a pain so 
I just changed my setting to web for now though it was more convenient 
to read the group using Thunderbird on my Ubuntu machine.  I've left 
email on for this group however as there are no where near the number of 
"conversations" going on as there are on the developer group.

When I signed up I used one of my company email addresses but the web 
host didn't seem to be up to the volume though the account was set up to 
cover it.  So I changed it to a Gmail account to let Google handle the 
traffic.  I may set up a company email address just for the developer 
group and yell at my hosting service if it times out downloading messages.

2. HTC Hero Contacts ACTION_INSERT intent returns no result

I'm using this intent to let the user create a contact:

intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSERT,Contacts.People.CONTENT_URI);
this.startActivityForResult(intent, CREATE_CONTACT_REQUEST);

I use the result of this intent to know uri for the new contact they
created. This works on every android device I've tested except for the
Hero, probably because they have their own Contacts app
implementation.

Here's the code I use to retrieve the result of the action:

    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode,
Intent data) {
        if (requestCode == CREATE_CONTACT_REQUEST) {
            if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                Uri newContactUri = data.getData();
       ....


On every other device when: resultCode == RESULT_OK  it's safe to
assume that data contains the uri for the newly created contact.
However on the Hero they return RESULT_OK, yet data is equal to null!

Does anybody know how I can figure out the URI for the newly created
contact on the Hero?

Also is anyone aware of a place to report bugs to HTC?
I searched around on their developer site http://developer.htc.com/
but didn't find anything.


Thanks a bunch.
