Has anyone built a LiveCode program integrated with Google Maps program that can be converted into an Android app for use on an Android smartphone/tablet or phablet. The app will use geolocation/geocoding/reversecoding and also access a Cloud SQL database to compute metrics for our advertising app.

I think you can do all of those things with livecode. Here's a few links to get you started:
A lesson a getting location and using compass:

A lesson on web services, which has a small section about google maps geocoding:

Connecting to a mySQL databse:

Hopefully this helps a bit!
