Answer 1

You should download the latest OpenCV 4 Android here:

http://opencv.org/downloads.html

And read these tutorials to get you started (in this order roughly):

Introduction into Android Development

OpenCV4Android SDK

Android Development with OpenCV

OpenCV4Android Reference

Answer 2

If you want to use OPEN CV in your android apps, for example if you need to read some strings from an image in your android and you are new in using OPEN CV. Then download the pre-built OpenCV library for Android from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/files/opencv-android/2.3/

After downloading, import OpenCV-2.3.1 into Eclipse using File-->Import...-->General-->Existing Project Into Workspace.

In your project's properties, Under Android, add the OpenCV2.3.1 library (press Add.. on the right and select OpenCV2.3.1).

            Good luck!

Answer 3

installed the Win-superpack? I recommend getting the latest .tar, extract and use it. Worked for me.

Answer 4

You might want to take a look at this project: https://github.com/billmccord/OpenCV-Android

I was able to run opencv applications on my android phone with the help of this port.

Answer 5

I posted about this on a duplicate question. Make sure you have the android NDK installed! Or, consider using JavaCV instead. It is much easier to install.
