My advice, unless you need to do some low level stuff with the NDK in C or C++ use Java, that's the only viable way to develop for Android.
With Phonegap (html,javascript) you will never take advantage of Android SDK widgets and won't be able to write background activities ,and you won't really learn Android development. Gomobile is not production ready in my opinion, and there is no GUI aside from developing your own with OpenGL. Java cannot be avoided here.
