Hi Adria,
I don't know why you would want to have osmosis on an Android device, but
nevertheless, if you want to achieve this, you need to implement those
libraries used from Java SDK that are not present in the Android SDK. For
many, you will find a open source implementations in openjdk
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/.
You will have to rename the packages (e.g. appending a common prefix to
avoid conflicts, and do so throughout the osmosis code base).

Good luck +

Raphael
