Tidy Android Instructions README.md (#7016)

* Tidy Android Instructions README.md

Remove CLBlast instructions(outdated), added OpenBlas.

* don't assume git is installed

Added apt install git, so that git clone works

* removed OpenBlas

Linked to Linux build instructions

* fix typo

Remove word "run"

* correct style

Co-authored-by: slaren <redacted>
* correct grammar

Co-authored-by: slaren <redacted>
* delete reference to Android API

* remove Fdroid reference, link directly to Termux

Fdroid is not required

-#### Building the Project using Termux (F-Droid)
-Termux from F-Droid offers an alternative route to execute the project on an Android device. This method empowers you to construct the project right from within the terminal, negating the requirement for a rooted device or SD Card.
-
-Outlined below are the directives for installing the project using OpenBLAS and CLBlast. This combination is specifically designed to deliver peak performance on recent devices that feature a GPU.
-
-If you opt to utilize OpenBLAS, you'll need to install the corresponding package.
+#### Build on Android using Termux
+[Termux](https://github.com/termux/termux-app#installation) is an alternative to execute `llama.cpp` on an Android device (no root required).
 ```
-apt install libopenblas
+apt update && apt upgrade -y
+apt install git
 ```
 
-Subsequently, if you decide to incorporate CLBlast, you'll first need to install the requisite OpenCL packages:
+It's recommended to move your model inside the `~/` directory for best performance:
 ```
-apt install ocl-icd opencl-headers opencl-clhpp clinfo
-```
-
-In order to compile CLBlast, you'll need to first clone the respective Git repository, which can be found at this URL: https://github.com/CNugteren/CLBlast. Alongside this, clone this repository into your home directory. Once this is done, navigate to the CLBlast folder and execute the commands detailed below:
-```
-cmake .
-make
-cp libclblast.so* $PREFIX/lib
-cp ./include/clblast.h ../llama.cpp
-```
-
-Following the previous steps, navigate to the LlamaCpp directory. To compile it with OpenBLAS and CLBlast, execute the command provided below:
+cd storage/downloads
+mv model.gguf ~/
 ```
-cp /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/include/openblas/cblas.h .
-cp /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/include/openblas/openblas_config.h .
-make LLAMA_CLBLAST=1 //(sometimes you need to run this command twice)
-```
-
-Upon completion of the aforementioned steps, you will have successfully compiled the project. To run it using CLBlast, a slight adjustment is required: a command must be issued to direct the operations towards your device's physical GPU, rather than the virtual one. The necessary command is detailed below:
-```
-GGML_OPENCL_PLATFORM=0
-GGML_OPENCL_DEVICE=0
-export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/vendor/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-```
-
-(Note: some Android devices, like the Zenfone 8, need the following command instead - "export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/system/vendor/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH". Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/termux/comments/kc3ynp/opencl_working_in_termux_more_in_comments/ )
-
-For easy and swift re-execution, consider documenting this final part in a .sh script file. This will enable you to rerun the process with minimal hassle.
 
-Place your desired model into the `~/llama.cpp/models/` directory and execute the `./main (...)` script.
+[Follow the Linux build instructions](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp#build) to build `llama.cpp`.
