The key search term here is "inertial navigation".
Combining it with "android" is a good start,
it will lead you to an existing implementation:

 From there, you'll reach a blog and an associated thesis.

Not surprisingly, it uses Kalman filters.
Alas, none of my phones has enough sensors to fully try it.
