AFAIK, every measurement in Android is in pixels. When you define something in dp or whatever else in dimens.xml or in your layout, they get converted to pixels. The easit way to do it is to define your measurements in dimens.xml and that way you can use whatever UOM you want and the system will take care of the conversion for you.
