now that almost everything is good on apm 2.5 i think it will be perfect to have an option to use android phone screen to have mission planner for example
do you know if there will be this kind of option?

Well, almost anything is possible with android. The problem is just porting the GCS to the Android SDK and Telemetry USB drivers will most likely have to be redone. So unless you do something with WIFI for the telemetry like AirDrone does. Does 3DR have the sources available for the telemetry?
search around in forum. you will find that there's one open source project, Copter-GCS , and one ~year old thread about a promising project, that turned out to be vaporware, partially delayed/destroyed by the authors obsession of providing an apple version, while apple sabotaged the interface as good as only they can. Anyway - Look at Copter-GCS, and don't hope for the other project to be completed anytime soon.
