How do I show things directly to the screen in Android?

Question

I'm new to android and I was wandering is there a way to show a stream or a pic to the screen directly even without the manifest?

Or how do I load resources files without using the manifest on the Android platform?

The manifest is not directly involved with showing "a stream or a pic to the screen".

Or how do I load resources files without using the manifest on the Android platform?

The manifest is not directly involved with loading resource files.
