I'm trying to get my phone's gyro/accelerometer sensors to talk to a pure data patch in a self contained app.

I tried learning android studio with libpd, but dear god I'm not ready for that kind of commitment in my life just yet.

I can run Pd apps on my phone with the PdDroidParty app, but I'd have no idea how to get the sensor data into PdDroidParty.

I just found that that processing has an android mode, which makes it 1 bajillion times simpler to make an android app. The Ketai library for processing+android basically dump the phone's sensor and gesture data right into your lap.

Is there an easy way to drop a pd patch into a processing sketch in android mode so I can route the sensor data to it? I saw a puredatap5 library for processing+android, but looks like there's no windows build and may or may not be still working.

check out mobmuplat. it has an example of what you need

You could use LibPd to use Pure Data inside processing too
