Info Learn java programming-Java tutorials

Java has a bigger learning curve. It's a complete platform with a huge API and a lot of details. As you've reduced your scenario to Android, I suppose you could organize your studies this way:

• Understand the basics of packages, classes and methods. These 3 concepts by themselves have a lot of details and best practices;
• OOP (Object Oriented Programming) - This is an important aspect so you can write legible and maintainable code;
• Collections is an important aspect of the language you must learn.,
• Adopting Android, you'll have to understand a bit about inner classes and events. For example: to handle buttons actions;
• Start reading Android API
• For Android I believe 4 main concepts will give you a simplified overview: Activity, Intent, Services and Interface building.
