Java does not offer "unsigned" so you're right, you will get negative value if you i.e. Log.i(() it, but that's not really important as it's just matter of *interpretation* of the value. All bits of 0xFFFFFFFF are the same no matter if you *treat* it as signed or unsigned int and this is what matters. PS: but if you want example of how to incorrectly cope with such case see android:versionCode - it's int and Market will complain if you set it to i.e. "201107311521", which is kinda lame.
