I need to use html5 into my android application using Webview. But i don't know what are the features supported in Android 2.1 and 2.2.

You need to check these features at runtime (and possibly turn them on yourself), through the following code copied from this SO answer:
wv = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
WebSettings ws = wv.getSettings();
ws.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
ws.setAllowFileAccess(true);
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT>=Build.VERSION_CODES.ECLAIR) {
try {
Log.d(TAG, "Enabling HTML5-Features");
Method m1 = WebSettings.class.getMethod("setDomStorageEnabled", new Class[]{Boolean.TYPE});
m1.invoke(ws, Boolean.TRUE);
Method m2 = WebSettings.class.getMethod("setDatabaseEnabled", new Class[]{Boolean.TYPE});
m2.invoke(ws, Boolean.TRUE);
Method m3 = WebSettings.class.getMethod("setDatabasePath", new Class[]{String.class});
m3.invoke(ws, "/data/data/" + getPackageName() + "/databases/");
Method m4 = WebSettings.class.getMethod("setAppCacheMaxSize", new Class[]{Long.TYPE});
m4.invoke(ws, 1024*1024*8);
Method m5 = WebSettings.class.getMethod("setAppCachePath", new Class[]{String.class});
m5.invoke(ws, "/data/data/" + getPackageName() + "/cache/");
Method m6 = WebSettings.class.getMethod("setAppCacheEnabled", new Class[]{Boolean.TYPE});
m6.invoke(ws, Boolean.TRUE);
Log.d(TAG, "Enabled HTML5-Features");
}
catch (NoSuchMethodException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Reflection fail", e);
}
catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Reflection fail", e);
}
catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
Log.e(TAG, "Reflection fail", e);
}
}
