why don't you just send bitcoins from your android wallet to your desktop wallet address?

for the wallet you want to port. Simply dump privekey "bitcoin address" this should then generate your private key for that address.

Then if you are importing to pc wallet goto console and type in importprivkey then the private key of the address hit inter and it should import that address into your Windows wallet.

If you have wallet locked then do this

Open the client.
Go to Help > Debug Window > Console and enter what is below
walletpassphrase "your wallet password" 50000 true
Enter the wallet password above without the quotes.  The 50000 is the total time it will be unlocked.
You should now see the lock icon on the bottom right corner of the wallet look like it's unlocked.

Then you can do the above to import your private key and wallet over from android wallet providing it has options to dump privekey and then import it to another system.
