OpenCV4Android

Looks like I’m going to have to work with OpenCV and android a lot in the near future. Though documentation seems okay, I’ve run into multiple instances of having to google the same thing over and over again and have finally decided to compile everything in this post, which will be expanded and updated as I hit, and clear roadblocks.
