With binary executable file you mean a normal executable, not an Android
app? Then it really depends on what you want to do.

If this is a custom Android system anyway, you can as well initialise
the codecs yourself properly and remove this check from the androidmedia
plugin. If it's a custom Android system you should know how to do that.

Otherwise if you only have to support a limited set of devices, and on
all of them OpenMAX IL is available, you can also just use gst-omx.
You'll need to write a configuration file for every different SoC
though. And keep in mind that OpenMAX IL is not public API on Android.
