How to implement App Login?

Hi,

I am trying to build android app as part of implementation I am trying to implement access to different resources on my behalf for example access to geocode service with isForStorage = true

I am using android runtime (latest version) and I tried the following:

Create LocatorTask with url http://geocode.arcgis.com/arcgis/rest/services/World/GeocodeServer and passed token with referrer for application that I created locatorTask.setCredential(UserCredential.createFromToken(....)))
```
geocodeParams.isForStorage = true
```
Perform call to locatorTask.geocodeAsync - I always got 403
I also created Service Proxies and tried to use those urls, also with out success

Also, I have additional question: what is the best way to retrieve a token in android app?

I didn't found any specific API inside sdk, as a solution I can perform http call with secret and client_id and after that to use retrieved token. Is this the only option?
