Small General : Eastern Front manual : Android related
Android Minimum Specs
You need at least android 2.3. Furthermore the game is best played on a screen with 480x800 or higher resolution. Game runs on phones and tablets and scales to available screen resolution. However with higher than 480x800 resolutions it tries to zoom in as much as possible.
This is done because modern phones like the Samsung S3 have such an high resolution, actually using it would make the hexes too small to precisely touch them. You can however always turn on high resolution mode (for example if using a tablet) when you want in the preferences window.
Android Permissions
Wakelock
The game wants the phone to stay on as long as its running.
Vibrate
The game uses vibration at start of turn and during combat. Thats why it needs this permission. Vibration can be turned off using the Prefs Screen.

Android Quircks
Keep in mind when you exit the application during AI processing the game actually quits. The reason for this is that it is not possible (for me) to break off the AI while in mid process. Either you let it continue untill it completes its turn or you quit. If you accidently quit you can always load the autosave file again to continue where you left of.
