If you're using eclipse:
- Download jar packages for libraries you are interested in
- Go to project properties in eclipse -> Java Build Path -> Libraries. Add External JARs here.
Just for completeness' sake - if you aren't using eclipse to develop and you are building with ant - just put the jar in your libs folder of your project.
Done!

Also, be warned that not all of them can be automatically converted to Dalvik. For example commons-httpclient does not convert cleanly from the release binaries, you need to go through source to make it work.

If you are using android Stuido - that doesn't yet supports adding libraries - you need to edit the src/build.gradle
I wanted to add org.apache.commons.net and My file called 'org.apache.commons.net.jar' was placed in the libs folder, so my build.gradles dependencies look now like this:
dependencies { compile files('libs/android-support-v4.jar') compile files('libs/org.apache.commons.net.jar') }
