The second one is quiet easier then the previous one and its nothing but an AlertDialog and you may keep track of it by persisting its state via shared-preferences or Sqlite Db.

And for the previous case without googling for an opensource project I would recommend you to create your own RelativeLayout and place some imageViews at the respective positions and for persisting the states go by the above mentioned methodology.

use one transparent layout and maintain your help text on it, using images to draw the layout. check this link it gives some idea for that help layout.
