LOCAL_STATIC_JAVA_LIBRARIES are used for libraries which will be clubbed with your library or jar. Similar to lib.a. LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES are used for libraries which won't be clubbed with your jar. Similar to lib.so. For LOCAL_JAVA_LIBRARIES platform should provide its implementation else it would crash.
