Thanks for the help. Using the hint on "getApplicationInfo().nativeLibraryDir" I could confirm it is a problem on this specific HTC. Probably a bug. On AVD and on a Samnsung it works correctly and I confirmed the existence of the lib files in getApplicationInfo().nativeLibraryDir. On the HTC they are not there when I move the app.
