Hi, Welcome to GIS.SE! This question in it's current form is far too broad to answer. Can you narrow it down to specific problems that you are facing? –  Devdatta Tengshe Feb 11 '14 at 11:42
    
Check out mapsforge and osmdroid for rendering maps in android. They will also allow you to create markers and change their colors. If you want the database to be in android device itself you cannot use mysql, you will have to use sqlite. If your mysql database is on web you will have to make a web service to access the database and use HTTP post/get/put/delete in order to use the database. Hope this will help you get started and you can then narrow down your question. –  Nirab Pudasaini Feb 11 '14 at 13:16
