The answers are:

  1. The Android course will teach you some basics of Java, but you will not be an expert Java programmer after completing the course.
  2. Yes, you can start to develop Android apps even without a phone, you can use AVDs (Android Virtual Devices) to test you app, of course its much interesting if you can put it on the phone and take a look at your app there.
