Android supports SLAAC and has good support transitional tech like xlat464 and DHCP option 108.

I have used these on my network and office to move to IPv6-only for Android.

What about lack of DHCPv6 prevents you from using IPv6 on Android?

I can't run SLAAC and DHCPv6 at the same time without giving devices multiple addresses, and Android doesn't support DHCPv6, so I'd have to carve out a separate, SLAAC-based, android-only network. And then figure out firewall rules, multicast reflection, etc.
