Normal application runs in the dalvik VM, are you sure you want to strace them? The only way is to modify the init script to run zygote over strace and follow the forks. Android have a step-by-step debugger why you do not explore this option? http://developer.android.com/intl/it/guide/developing/debug-tasks.html Android provide his source code, you can look into this to find what is going on if you would to go deeper.
