xvimagesink is not available on Android. Android has no X11. You can use
eglglessink on Android, take a look at the Android examples at
docs.gstreamer.com

For having ffdec_h264 you need to put
$(GSTREAMER_PLUGINS_CODECS_RESTRICTED) to your Android.mk.


I would also recommend you to not use ancient 0.10 GStreamer versions
but the latest version available (1.2.0):
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/gstreamer-devel/2013-September/043141.html

There however the outdated examples on docs.gstreamer.com need some
updates, see the first attachment in this mail for example:

Take a look at gst-rtsp-server :)
