Jose, Take a look at http://bhoost.com which aims to provide exactly what you are looking for. Bhoost is an open source wrapper around Android's WebKit browser. It offers JavaScript API to native Android capabilities. To launch native dialer it follows a common technique used on iPhone and s60 phones - all you need is to have an href starting with tel: and Bhoost will launch the native dialer. It also can launch camera to shoot and upload photos, has GPS api, sensors api and more. At this moment it does not have battery power and network status APIs, but you can easily add them yourself. If you have a problem with this - let me know and we will put this in our Bhoost project plan.
