What you describe using F7 is fairly normal. But since single-stepping through code is tedious, and the tedium is fruitless when you don't have the source, I usually use Step UP instead of Step Over once I land in Android system code. I also use breakpoints in Android more heavily than I do in other debugging/development environments to avoid landing in the system code in the first place.
