What I cannot understand is why portions of your smb.conf are only 
really relevant on an NT4-style PDC or an AD DC/member and the smb.conf 
is for a standalone server ?

I would hazard a guess that your Android client needs updating, Samba 
turned SMBv1 off at 4.11.0, so it now only uses SMBv2 or SMBv3
