GUI Layout for Android Guidelines

My main interest in Android is to get one of my Windows OS apps to run on an Android Tablet (10.1" and up).

However, I have an idea for a smartphone app, a different kettle of fish entirely.

Are there any SB guidelines about how to define a Window for Android smartphones? Although fairly similar these days, they still differ in size and shape.

What about things like gadget sizes, font sizes?

How to have the built-in Android keyboard at the bottom of your app?

Also, what is the standard font family and what unit is used to measure font height?

If geometry was right you could just use Dialog lib, but until then use the recently added Desktop size change event to handle orientation change.
