Use the Sample applications provided with your API version. If not provided, visit http://developer.android.com/tools/samples/index.html for getting the instructions of getting the application sample codes.
I recommend the Last.fm for Android application: http://github.com/c99koder/lastfm-android
UPDATE: I'm not sure this is a good example anymore, it hasn't been updated in 2-3 years.
Are the Android samples not good enough? I've found the ApiDemos to be indispensable when learning a new aspect of Android, myself.
