Menu like SKOUT and Sliding from One View to Another by touch in Android

The simplest solution may be to use android-undergarment, which has bezel swiping built in, based on the project README:

The user will also be able to control the drawer by bezel swiping from the left side of the screen to open the drawer and doing the same from the right to close it. If you want to prevent this touch functionality, you can call setDrawerEnabled(false).


You can simply use TranslateAnimationon the view which you wish to move along with a pop up for fade and another pop up window for you menu. I have implemented it in my application, and it works like a charm.
This image shows you when you need the animation, and other components


Code:

public class SlidingOptionsMenuActivity extends Activity {

    /**
     * Signifies that the menu is already visible
     */
    boolean alreadyShowing = false;
    /**
     * Width of the current window
     */
    private int windowWidth;
    /**
     * Height of the current window
     */
    private int windowHeight;
    /**
     * Reference of the {@link PopupWindow} which dims the screen
     */
    private PopupWindow fadePopup;
    /**
     * The translate animation
     */
    private Animation ta;
    /**
     * The view which needs to be translated
     */
    private RelativeLayout baseView;
    /**
     * Reference of the {@link LayoutInflater}
     */
    LayoutInflater inflater;

    /*
     * (non-Javadoc)
     * 
     * @see android.app.Activity#onCreate(android.os.Bundle)
     */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
        windowWidth = display.getWidth();
        windowHeight = display.getHeight();
        inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);

        findViewById(R.id.btnOptions).setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            /*
             * (non-Javadoc)
             * 
             * @see android.view.View.OnClickListener#onClick(android.view.View)
             */
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if(!alreadyShowing){
                    alreadyShowing = true;
                    openSlidingMenu();
                }
            }
        });
    }


    /**
     * Fades the entire screen, gives a dim background
     */
    private void showFadePopup() {
        final View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fadepopup, (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.fadePopup));
        fadePopup = new PopupWindow(layout, windowWidth, windowHeight, false);
        fadePopup.showAtLocation(layout, Gravity.NO_GRAVITY, 0, 0);
    }

    /**
     * Opens the sliding Menu
     */
    private void openSlidingMenu() {
        showFadePopup();
        // The amount of view which needs to be moved out. equivalent to the
        // width of the menu
        int width = (int) (windowWidth * 0.6f);
        translateView((float) (width));
        int height = LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT;
        // creating a popup
        final View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.option_popup_layout,(ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.popup_element));

        final PopupWindow optionsPopup = new PopupWindow(layout, width, height, true);
        optionsPopup.setBackgroundDrawable(new PaintDrawable());

        optionsPopup.showAtLocation(layout, Gravity.NO_GRAVITY, 0, 0);

        optionsPopup.setOnDismissListener(new PopupWindow.OnDismissListener() {

            public void onDismiss() {
                //Removing the fade effect
                fadePopup.dismiss();    
                //to clear the previous animation transition in
                cleanUp();
                //move the view out
                translateView(0);
                //to clear the latest animation transition out
                cleanUp();
                //resetting the variable
                alreadyShowing = false;
            }
        });
    }

    /**
     * This method is responsible for view translation. It applies a translation
     * animation on the root view of the activity
     * 
     * @param right The position to translate to
     */
    private void translateView(float right) {

        ta = new TranslateAnimation(0f, right, 0f, 0f);
        ta.setDuration(300);
        ta.setFillEnabled(true);
        ta.setFillAfter(true);

        baseView = (RelativeLayout) findViewById(R.id.baseView);
        baseView.startAnimation(ta);
        baseView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
    }

    /**
     * Basic cleanup to avoid memory issues. Not everything is release after
     * animation, so to immediately release it doing it manually
     */
    private void cleanUp(){
        if (null != baseView) {
            baseView.clearAnimation();
            baseView = null;
        }
        if (null != ta) {
            ta.cancel();
            ta = null;
        }
        fadePopup = null;
    }
} //END of Class
//END of file

Hope this would help.

Another open source library I've found that's been very good is SlidingMenu. It should suit your needs as you can open and close the drawer by a "Menu" click and by bezel swiping. I found integrating this along with an Actionbar library like ActionBarSherlock or johannilsson's android-actionbar library is simply a matter of changing a line or two of code in the library project. The Readme for the SlidingMenu library explains how to integrate with the ABSherlock library.

One thing worth noting is that the SlidingMenu example project demonstrates a number of different drawer open-close animations. These are some of the best animations I've seen for this style of menu/navigation.
