Reuse tips for Android

Question

Android resources and their automatically generated references simplify the development of one app a great deal. But they also complicate the reuse of Android activities in multiple projects, and in general of any component that uses resources.

Library projects are a limited alternative. A project can depend on many library projects, but a library project can't depend on another, and adding additional JAR dependencies is not straightforward.

How do you reuse Android components (not plain old Java code)? Any tips and tricks?
