For the Logcat output you wouldn't need to compile or use cygwin, but you would have to install Eclipse, the Android ADT plugin (which should produce a LogCat window in eclipse) then find the settings page on your device that enables "USB Debugging" and turn it on.

In tier 2 you can load an image and get it's pointer like so
agk::LoadImage(1,"myimage.png");
cImage *pImage = agk::GetImagePtr(1);
pImage->LoadFromData( width, height, data );
where "data" is a byte array of size width*height*4 with every 4 bytes being one pixel in RGBA format.
