Earlier this week, I stumbled across a way to get TLS working 
with ldc for Android/ARM, similar to the approach used for 
Android/x86 so far.  Exception-handling on ARM for ldc is 
currently unfinished 
(https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/issues/489), so if I 
disable a handful of tests related to that, I get 36 of 42 
druntime modules' unit tests and around 31 of 70 phobos modules' 
unit tests to pass.  All tests were run from the command line on 
my Android tablet.  It appears there are issues related to 
unicode and the GC causing many of the remaining failures.
