Well; drawing a circle is a very straightforward, inside your onDraw() method add this line

canvas.drawCircle(cX, cY, radius, paint);

Simply provide the center point's x and y values and radius and paint object as well.

And for the pins around the corner you can go like this, e.g you want a pin at 30 degrees; with a simple trigonometric calculation, your pin's x and y values can be these;

pX = mX + radius * Math.cos(Math.toRadians(30));
pY = mY + radius * Math.sin(Math.toRadians(30));

So you can draw your pin at these x and y values respectively, also the degree can be changed.

the point(cX,cY) you want draw

the center point(centerX,centerY) of the circle

the radius of the circle

the angle is the point(cX,cY) on the circle.

also see the image:

the code:

cX = centerX + radius*Math.cos(angle*Math.PI/180);
cY = centerY + radius*Math.sin(angle*Math.PI/180);
canvas.drawCircle(cX, cY, radius, paint);
