about me, should it be avoided or is it to be expected in that kind

Speaking as a former division manager of a public company that has hired dozens of programmers and engineers and read hundreds of resumes:

Use "I". It is expected. Stick to the facts, do not engage in puffery, but do not be afraid to note very positive results; either (as you have).

Do not be so stilted in your language. I would not use the word "utilize", "use" is sufficient. "Currently" is not necessary either.

Currently I am looking for internship opportunities that can utilize my existing programming skills and allow me to expand them further.

I would like an internship that uses my existing programming skills, with opportunities to expand them further.

... My primary interests are in ...

... and I am well versed ...

I would not mention any other hobbies unless they directly relate to your technical skills. None of yours do (not even modding phones, which suggests you are a hacker).

My long term goal is a career in Web/Android development.

Thank you for your consideration, my contact information is on my resume, and below:
Azat@example.com
Cell: 999-999-9999
etc.

Good luck.
