RE 4, I think you've missed the point. I mean when checking for smoothness you should use airplane mode and kill everything. You need to know any glitches you see aren't related to what's going on in the background. I didn't mean you should tune your game so it only runs in airplane mode.

you probably won't be using the ui stuff much if you're making a game so I wouldn't worry about that. I did a blog post about 3 of the popular Android games libs a while back, one of these should help... http://www.dustypixels.com/blog/2010/11/17/native-android-ogl-game-libraries-3-of-the-best/

It's good of you put some suggestions out there to help others, and I'm not trying to have a dig, but none of those tips have anything to do with opengl(es) specifically. If you really want some indepth opengles tips and insight you can't go far wrong with reading through the posts on the badlogic

Off the top of my head I'd agree with your mentor if you are working with standard android ui elements, however if you were to draw the whole view yourself using canvas/ogl it shouldn't be too hard to trap the raw touch inputs and drag/resize elements at will. You'd need to build your own scene
