No, OpenJDK license is GPL + classpath exception: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPL_linking_exception http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPL_linking_exception Ie. apps that only use the Java system libraries don't have to be GPL'ed, only modifications of the VM itself. Google didn't want to place this restriction on Android vendors.
