Answer 1

Sphinx 4 tries to get the microphone from the system using libraries that only exist in the java VM, remember that Android runs on the Dalvik Machine...so basically you will never get the Hello demo to run on Android using Sphinx 4, I've tried that before... However I invite you to find out by yourself, just download the source code for sphinx instead of the jar, eventually you will get it to build but you will always get a runtime error wen trying to fetch the microphone...so it's pointless trying to use sphinx 4 on android...
