Answer 1

From API point of view this is not possible but there might be a workaround that should work I am not sure if it works but theoretically it must

Create a Thread that must redraw the marker at some interval 1sec and change the image alternatively in code where you draw the marker like red image first then greeen and so on

//---add the marker---
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(
getResources(), R.drawable.pushpin);            
canvas.drawBitmap(bmp, screenPts.x, screenPts.y-50, null);
