I'm not sure how much success Android developers are having with this, but Retrolambda combined with streamsupport (java.util.stream) and ThreeTen (java.time) makes Java 8 on Android possible: https://github.com/orfjackal/retrolambda https://github.com/orfjackal/retrolambda Sounds like there might be some things that are missing or incomplete, but having lambdas and the Stream API would be a huge step forward.
