The default Boinc for Android only allows three account managers and doesn't allow the addition of custom managers, which is needed for Gridcoin pool mining with your Android phone. However, the Boinc app can be modified using the free Android APK Editor app, which is what I used to insert the pool.gridcoin.co URL in the default manager options.
If you don't want to do the setup yourself you can just download the app file here:

Download Boinc and Android APK Editor from Google play.
Step 2:
Open up APK Editor and open the Boinc app using the "Select APK from app" option.
Step 3:
Select the "Full Edit" option.
Step 4:
Select the "Files" tab from the options bellow.
Step 5:
Select the "Values" option.
Step 6:
Select the "Arrays.xml" option.
Step 7:
Once you enter the arrays file, you can just swap one of the existing manager urls with the Gridcoin pool one between the <item> </item> tags.
Step 8:
Once the modification is complete, click the save button and install the new Boinc version on your Android.
The new version should now allow you to use the Gridcoin pool as your manager and you can add projects from within the pool interface when logged in.
