Hi Pritam,
I worked on the Network scanner for Android last year. I have update the
wiki on the project description page
http://dev.umitproject.org/projects/umitproject/wiki/GSoC2012Ideas
Those are some ideas. Feel free to propose more ideas.
I would say this application is not as much as of a traditional Android
application as it requires a good use of the NDK and cross-compiling
existing tools for Android.
>From experience - the Java components are simpler to write as compared to
the native code. It uses a cross-compiled nmap and traceroute.
Cheers,
Angad
