I would like to make sure that when user log in it will stay in session no

Answer 1

• When your Android application first calls your Login API, retrieve the token fields from the validated response
• Store these token fields locally, in the app, using SharedPreferences

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/SharedPreferences.html

• (this storage persists outside of the app/os lifecycle, it will still be there after a relaunch of the app or device reboot)
• Whenever you call your web service (php), append the token parameters

This looks like some relevant information here:
