Hi there. I've cc'ed our Android team as they can give you pointers on that side.
We work on the Cortex-A series of processors including the Cortex-A8 in the AM3359. You can use Linaro GCC, including our binary build[1], to build u-boot, the kernel, and Android. Android is a little bit special as it wants the tools built and packaged in a certain way. Have a look on our wiki for how to build Android from source, which will include links to the right tools builds.
Hope that helps. You might want to look at other prebuilt efforts like Rowboat: https://groups.google.com/forum/#%21topic/android-porting/5s94lGSVOTo
as well.
