Answer 1

I don't see the documentation explicitly saying whether or not supports-screens is optional or mandatory. supports-screens has default values, and the section titled "Strategies for Legacy Applications" makes it sound (to me at least) like it would be optional if you are fine with defaults. However, it does not hurt if it is there as far as I know, so I would just put it in. Makes it easy to add attributes to it later if you need to.

Android multiple screen sizes with same density

I'm confused regarding the densities. I see that with medium density, the screen resolution could be either 320x480, 480x800, or 480x854. So if I have an image thats 300px wide in the mdpi folder, how is it going to look the same size on all 3 different screen sizes (mainly 320x480 vs the other 2)? And by look the same size, I mean scale to be bigger or smaller depending upon the screen size. Thanks.
