 Probabily he is using the native android functions.

Hi Luca, AFAIK Qt Mobile is available only under proprietary and commercial
license. Am I wrong?

 Hi,

 as some of you have noticed, QT 5.2 is out. From release notes [1]:

 I am proud to say that Qt 5.2 fully brings Qt into the mobile space as a
 true player in the app development market supporting Android, iOS,
 BlackBerry, Sailfish/Jolla and Ubuntu Mobile.

 Now it could be easier to port QGis to these platforms. I remember that
 QT, from 5.0, uses OpenGL backend and it could render maps faster than
 before.

Yeah, it would be great to see QGIS ported to Qt5. My hope is that
QGIS 3.0 will use Qt5 and Python3.

From what I have read in Qt blogs, Qt 5.2 should really make
development for Android easier than ever before.

Not to my knowledge. OpenGL backend is used for QML-based user
interfaces (Qt Quick 2). But we are not using that for map rendering.
Switching to OpenGL for map rendering would be a big project.

Qt is the project that now includes Android support - with open source
license as usual.

Qt Mobile is a (new) different product, it comes with commercial
license, and brings you additional tools + support + cloud service.
You do not need Qt Mobile for QGIS on Android.

  From what I have read in Qt blogs, Qt 5.2 should really make

 Is there any guidance regarding this?
 I mean, on one hand, I think users (plugins dev mainly) might be upset if
 this change is happening so close to 2.0 release and on the other hand we
 don't want to wait ten years for this to happen, especially if this brings
 QGIS more easily on mobile device.
 If QGIS 3 is brought as the mobile release, it might sweeten the pill.

We should be able to get our codebase into a state where it will
compile with both Qt4 and Qt5. The transition should be relatively
painless (mostly fixing the build and plugin/provider system). Even
after that, all the 2.x releases would still be based on Qt4 and
Python2 - no change whatsoever, so no reason for making plugin
developers angry. Just people building their custom projects based on
QGIS would eventually be able to use the new features from Qt5.

Thanks Martin for claryfing it.
I've given a look to the port status and it seems quite good.
It lacks some important, tipycal mobile features, like
positioning/satellite information, bluetooth, etc., which are planned for
5.3.0.
