I started (with a background in PC programming) making changes in Android apps that distributed the source code, and it took a LOT of getting used to because the environment and application life cycles are very different. If you start adapting apk's without source code, that's another skillset (decompiling, going through often obfuscated code, repackaging).

On Android, a lot depends on the version because things like file system access are changed often among versions. One of the many reasons to root devices.

But on Android there are a lot of interesting calculator apps. The goxx series seems to be revived (almost all HP models, and they work now reliable on newer Android versions), there are apps for Casio calcs, TI 5x models, the Basic handhelds from the 1980's, open source HP48 apps (Droid 48 and the derived 48sx), HP's own apps (Prime, 15C, 12C and 12C Platinum) and of course the excelent Free42, an open source HP42s emulator.
