Don't list yourself as "Java and Android application developer with more than 3 years experience."
Just say, "Java and Android application developer" or even just "Android application developer".
When you ask for a job, call yourself "mid-level" until you hit >= 6 years and then list yourself as "Senior ... Developer". Until then, it's not good in this market to advertise so few years. There are just too many people out there with more, many who are unemployed, even.
Second, if you are doing it for the purpose of trying to get noticed, stop the Java posts and just do Android. Personally, I just write whatever I want to share to my blog, but you posted the link on HN, so I'm guessing you want traction. If you write a "How I made $(something more than $1000) writing (Android app name)", or "How to write your first Android app and sell it in no time", you'll get traction. A lot of people here want to do mobile, but don't have time to learn, or had a crappy experience with it when they tried, so tutorials and promise of money/success are important.
Good luck! If you decide to keep going with the Java stuff, that's nice too. It's not a bad field to be in. Plenty of jobs. Just not many people interested in the basics.
