you can only get the speed which could be defined due to the maxspeed
tag but it could be also without limit and defined via the highway type:

// the speed in km/h
vehicleEncoder.getSpeed(edgeIterator.flags())

You cannot use nominatim if you want *offline* geocoding. This would
mean to port nominatim to android is impossible. If you want online
geocoding then offline routing is senseless too IMO.

But using a graphhopper webservice from Android is easy: have a look
into the web project and copy & paste GraphHopperWeb to your project and
use it instead of 'GraphHopper.java'. Then, to use nominatim, you can
use NominatimGeocoder
