This is commented out in SDLActivity.java, with the note #CURSORIMPLEENTATION because it requires API 24, which is higher than the minimum required SDK

As discussed in 2012 the iOS onscreen keyboard hides when you hit RETURN (see https://discourse.libsdl.org/t/on-screen-keyboard-change/19216).
IMO this is a bad idea to not be able to influence this behavior and just recently this was fixed for Android by adding the hint SDL_HINT_ANDROID_RETURN_HIDES_IME in changeset 11768 6ce3bb5e38a5.

A listener thread has been added to know when the native thread would end.
But now, it is more easy to only check that after the main function has returned. It's one thread less.
Also added native code to the Android gradle project, which allows using gradle or Android Studio to build the entire SDL application without a separate ndk-build step.

Some API 16 methods are used (InputDevice: getDescriptor(), getVibrator()), so we need to compile at least with SDK API 16. Hence default.properties and project.properties have been modified to use android-16.
There are also some modification to SDLActivity.java not to use getVibrator() if we run under API 16. And not to check to presence of hasVibrator() if we are under API 11.
-some hard-coded constant can be expandend.
- rename a local variable (hasVibrator to hasVibratorService)

Since https://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/6546daa45a02
SDL_android_main.c is empty and then produce a warning
nativeInit does not exist and dont need to be mark undefined

When I attempted to make a mapping file for Android gamepads, I quickly discovered that most of the ones that I have here show up as the same device (Broadcom Bluetooth HID), meaning that it was impossible to make mappings on Android, since every device looked the same.
This patch will check for the existence of the getDescriptor function added in Jelly Bean, and use it if it's there. The Android Dashboard says that the majority of Android phones should support this function, and doing it this way will not force us to bump up our API version.

Control key sequences from hardware keyboards (wireless/USB/bluetooth) get not properly reported on Android devices.
The attached patch uses the idea from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12337117/capture-all-ctrl-under-android to make control key sequences appear as normal SDL_KEYDOWN events instead of cooked text input.

Hi! here's a patch for that with two class loaded regarding API level.
Test both case : before API 11 and after.
I also remove now unused GetSystemServiceFromUIThread() and minor clean-up (haptic warning prototype).
