When I tried to install the Android platform, I get a error that the environment variable ANDROID_HOME cant be found, but if I echo it, it proves it exists.
Let me walk you to it:
1) Lets create a new app
dbugger#mercury:~/projects/meteor$ meteor create test
Created a new Meteor app in 'test'.
To run your new app:
cd test
meteor
If you are new to Meteor, try some of the learning resources here:
https://www.meteor.com/learn
2) So far, so good. Lets now install the android platform
dbugger#mercury:~/projects/meteor$ cd test/
dbugger#mercury:~/projects/meteor/test$ meteor add-platform android --verbose
Writing new config.xml

While adding platform Android to Cordova project:
Cordova error: CordovaError: Failed to fetch platform android
Probably this is either a connection problem, or platform spec is incorrect.
Check your connection and platform name/version/URL.

(If the error message contains suggestions for a fix, note that this may not apply to the Meteor integration. You can try running again with the --verbose option to help diagnose the issue.)
3) Well, that did not work out so well. Let's try with sudo
dbugger#mercury:~/projects/meteor/test$ sudo meteor add-platform android --verbose

Your system does not yet seem to fulfill all requirements to build apps for Android.
Please follow the installation instructions here:
https://github.com/meteor/meteor/wiki/Mobile-Development-Install:-Android-on-Linux
Status of the requirements:
✓ Java JDK
✗ Android SDK: Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. Try setting setting it manually.
Failed to find 'android' command in your 'PATH'. Try update your 'PATH' to include path to valid SDK directory.
✗ Android target: Android SDK not found. Make sure that it is installed. If it is not at the default location, set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable.
✗ Gradle: Could not find gradle wrapper within Android SDK. Could not find Android SDK directory.
Might need to install Android SDK or set up 'ANDROID_HOME' env variable.
4) Wait, what? Im sure that environment variable is set. Let's check it.
dbugger#mercury:~/projects/meteor/test$ echo $ANDROID_HOME
/home/dbugger/Android/Sdk
5) I knew it! So why did it fail...? Let's check it up again
dbugger#mercury:~/projects/meteor/test$ sudo meteor add-platform android --verbose
While adding platforms:
error: android: platform is already added
What?! Now it turns out that it DID install in the end?? What is going on here? I suspect something is greatly misconfigured in my system, but I am not sure what...
you are using sudo!
you probably shouldn't
even if the ANDROID_HOME variable is defined for your current user does not mean it is also defined for the root user, which is what the environment of the sudo call will be.
I'd really recommend against using sudo for meteor. If you can avoid that, then it should work and your problem is solved. Otherwise make sure to define the ANDROID_HOME variable also for the root user, or just use
sudo env ANDROID_HOME=[whatever you want it to be] meteor
instead.

Ubuntu only finds ANDROID_HOME when not running with sudo. When sudo is used, it does not find the installation. Please help!

Global paths should be set at /etc/profile. So put your export ANDROID_PATH ... statement there.
But why would you want to run cordova in sudo?
Quoting:
Many Linux distributions support the Linux Standard Base /etc/profile.d directory where configurations such as additional paths directives can go without touching the stock system files.

I'm installing an environment for an Ionic project on Windows 10. I downloaded Android studio and installed SDK in
C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Android\sdk
My system variable ANDROID_HOME=C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Android\sdk
Executed OK:
ionic platform add android
But :
$ ionic run android
Running command: "C:\Program Files\nodejs\node.exe" C:\Users\KGE\SVN\trunk\sagaMobile\hooks\after_prepare\010_add_platform_class.js C:/Users/KGE/SVN/trunk/sagaMobile
add to body class: platform-android
Error: Android SDK not found. Make sure that it is installed. If it is not at the default location, set the ANDROID_HOME environment variable.
I tried to find a solution for 2 days but nothing works. If you have any ideas ...
EDIT:
I use Git bash for input. I have the same with CMD, even as admin.
EDIT 2:
Solved by removing and reinstall of the whole project
I am trying to run a hybrid app on my android phone using ionic using the following command:
sudo ionic run android
However I keep receiving this error :
Error: Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. Try setting
setting it manually. Failed to find 'android' command in your 'PATH'.
Try update your 'PATH' to include path to valid SDK directory.
I have already added platform tools & tools to PATH updated ANDROID_HOME to point to my sdk root.
The ANDROID_HOME environment variable shows up when I run env and the PATH has the tools and platform tools too. Additionally I can execute android too. It launches the SDK Manager as expected.
Details:
ANDROID_HOME: /home/user/Android/Sdk
$PATH: /home/user/Android/Sdk/tools:/home/user/Android/Sdk/platform-tools
Please help! This is driving me up the wall!

sudo sanitizes the environment and by default only keeps certain
environment variables available with modifying the values of some
(e.g. PATH).
You can pass the variable ANDROID_HOME manually:
sudo ANDROID_HOME="/actual/path" ionic run android
Or preserve the current environment:
sudo -E ionic run android
I am trying to build an ionic project. I have set up environment for ionic and android in ubuntu. But don't know why the following error is showing on terminal ...
Error: Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. Try setting setting it manually.
Failed to find 'android' command in your 'PATH'. Try update your 'PATH' to include path to valid SDK directory.
I have set up android home as followings ...
userPC:/codes/myApp$ export ANDROID_HOME=/opt/android-sdk-linux
userPC:/codes/myApp$ export ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS=/opt/android-sdk-linux/platform_tools
userPC:/codes/myApp$ export ANDROID_TOOLS=/opt/android-sdk-linux/tools
userPC:/codes/myApp$ PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME:$ANDROID_TOOLS:$ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS
my android-sdk-linux is in /opt/ itself. From terminal I can run android command. So, I think environment variable is not the main issue. While I am trying to build ionic project, it shows Failed to find 'ANDROID_HOME' environment variable. I am using Android SDK Build Tools 22 and ionic latest version.
Can anyone tell me how can I solve this issue? I have searches a lot but everywhere I found to setup android sdk and environment variable path correctly. But I already have set up all these things. Thanks!
I think you are doing everything right except for the bin part.Add ANDROID_HOME environment variable to path and point out the corresponding bin directory as:
1.export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/android/SDK
2.export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/bin
when you issue studio.sh command on the command line, it looks for the bin directory in the path which contain executables! studio.sh is the one in this case.

Hope this was helpful.
After long time on search. To make a final fix for this problem
Follow Theses incrustation and it will fix it Correctly
Delete your current installation of node & npm & ionic & cordova
Install nvm follow this install nvm ubuntu
Install node with nvm follow this install node via nvm
Install ionic and cordova
npm install -g cordova ionic
Never use root to install node ,npm ,ionic or cordova
Set your Android Home
export ANDROID_HOME=/path/to/android/SDK
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/bin
After that its worked fine for my and ionic can see Android SDK home
Problem: Meteor cannot find my Android SDK when I try to meteor add-platform android on Linux Mint.
I've set my PATH variable: (echo $PATH)
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/home/jimmy/Android/Sdk/tools:/home/jimmy/Android/Sdk/platform-tools
I've got my ANDROID_HOME variable: (echo $ANDROID_HOME)
/home/jimmy/Android/Sdk
But still, when I run sudo meteor add-platform android --verbose I get:

Okay, so I figured it out? (I guess)
So, I had already had my PATH and ANDROID_HOME set and everything, I could do echo $PATH and echo $ANDROID_HOME and it would print fine; but when I would run the different commands, it wouldn't work.
however, when I run sudo -s and then the commands, it works fine.
Cheers
ANDROID_HOME must be set to Android/Sdk folder. In my case (Ubuntu) it is:
export ANDROID_HOME="/home/***<user name>***/Android/Sdk"
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Put this lines at the end of ~/.profile:
$ gedit ~/.profile
Then $ source ~/.profile
I had the same issue (and now I am stuck to Android target), but to solve Android SDK,
go to Android studio and ensure you remove everything from Android 6,
then that you have Android 5.1.1 installed (with v22 of the platform),
restart your console (I had to restart the laptop)
and normally it doesnt appear again (btw you dont need to use sudo normally)
It's possible that since you're using SUDO - that the PATH / ANDROID_HOME are not present in the root user's session. So try either:
sudo -s
export PATH=...
export ANDROID_HOME=...
meteor ...
or avoid using sudo.
