The way I've always seen it is that all androids are a type of robot, but not all robots are androids.
Robots are automated machines with varying levels of artificial intelligence, androids possess human-or-greater levels of AI, and are intended to emulate and imitate human subtleties as closely as possible. Self-awareness and ego development strictly optional.

Androids are robots resembling humans physically, that's all in essence. Artificial Intelligence while desirable is merely optional to the definition.
