More than 2 years a go i downloaded laztoapk, did some basic stuf with
that, just to see how it works. But I dont understand what are
laz4android and lamw.
Please, what are
- laztoapk ?
As I said, I did have the chance to do basic stuf with it, so i know
that laztoapk is installer that installs the whole thing: android sdk,
ndk, java, laz-ide, android emulator, eclipse IDE. It even produces
*.apk Android packaged binary files, which are (I guess) similar to
*.rpm's and *.deb's under linux.

- laz4android ?

- lazarus android module wizard (also known as lamw) ?

Laz4Android (Windows) ---> FPC/Lazarus + cross-android-compile [arm,
x86, JVM,...]

LazToApk (Windows) ---> A tool to get and install android infra-
structure [sdk, ndk, ...] + apk builder for customdraw framework 

LAMW (Windows, Linux) ---> A framework [app wizard, 60+ components,
form designer] to design, build and install Android Apk. NOTE: you
will need prepare/build a fpc cross-compile for android or
get Laz4Android...

It's been a while since I have last checked Android status, and I must
say that I am now even more confused then before. I am looking for FPC
JVM only development with any kind of IDE that allows me to create
forms with standard and custom visual controls. Does such thing exist
or not? I have probably read everything JVM related on wiki but could
not find such info...

None that I know of. Note that using FPC JVM is essentially the same
as using pure Android SDK, so you can use Android Studio's form
designer or any other 3rd party form designer (I remember ever found
one that's really light and works only as XML manipulator.

form designer once I catch some free time. If you remember the name of
that really light form designer then please drop a note here.

That's the problem. I also lost the name, even the app is gone from my
disk.
