installing android studio on ubuntu

everybody, I am the android developer, I am using ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
Because of some hardware problem, I have to format my PC. before that android studio , SDK and Java were working perfectly.
After formatting my PC. I installed jdk1.8.0_71. after i extract android studio deb file with command sudo dpkg -i android-studio_4.13.0-ubuntu0_all.deb
and 'android-studio' folder extracted at /opt directory.
after that, i try to run /opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh with command.
sh ./studio.sh and it gives me error like this
I have also tried by ./studio.sh to execute but same error. please help to solve.

To install Oracle Java on Ubuntu, do this:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
I do this every time I install an Android Studio and it works flawlessly. And your Java 8 will be kept up to date, too. The environment variables are automatically properly set by that procedure.

its all about ELF execution (when you get bushes in output)
when your 64 bit os tries to start the Android SDK which in turns tries to run some 32 bit binaries and thus is the issue of compatibility.
check you have proper libs installed for studio
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6
64-bit architecture your you need
sudo apt-get install libncurses5:amd64 libstdc++6:amd64 zlib1g:amd64
and 32 bit:
sudo apt-get install libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 zlib1g:i386
for details see:
https://developer.android.com/studio/install.html
ps if apt could not find such libs try to search for similar - the name can vary for different distro
also use proper java hotspot (jdk) 32/64bit for your system

Setting up Android Studio takes just a few clicks.
While the Android Studio download completes, verify which version of the JDK you have: open a command line and type javac -version. If the JDK is not available or the version is lower than 1.8, download the Java SE Development Kit 8.
To install Android Studio on Linux, proceed as follows:
Unpack the .zip file you downloaded to an appropriate location for your applications, such as within /usr/local/ for your user profile, or /opt/ for shared users.
To launch Android Studio, open a terminal, navigate to the android-studio/bin/ directory, and execute studio.sh.
Tip: Add android-studio/bin/ to your PATH environment variable so you can start Android Studio from any directory.
Select whether you want to import previous Android Studio settings or not, then click OK.
The Android Studio Setup Wizard guides you though the rest of the setup, which includes downloading Android SDK components that are required for development.
Note: If you are running a 64-bit version of Ubuntu, you need to install some 32-bit libraries with the following command:
sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6
If you are running 64-bit Fedora, the command is:
sudo yum install zlib.i686 ncurses-libs.i686 bzip2-libs.i686

I had similar problems with finding java by starting android-studio on ubuntu.
I solved the problems by editing the studio.sh file.
In the file the JAVA_HOME variable should be set, but it wasn't.
So I set the JAVA_HOME variable in the script manually and I could start android-studio.

Finally i solved my problem bu reinstalling java properly. i thought i installed wrong java/jdk. now Android Studio,Java is working.
I found this link useful to install java step by step. Link to install java step by step

How to install Android sdk to Ubuntu 14.04?

I had download Android zip file from the web site developer.android.com
And I try to install like following command in Terminal.
#cd desktop/android-sdk/tools/
#./studio.sh
After this system shows the window with title Android SDK Manager
Is it the proper procedure to install?

You can use apt-get to install , its easier.
1st) Download the repository
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:paolorotolo/android-studio
2nd) Update
sudo apt-get update
3rd) install
sudo apt-get install android-studio
this will install a old version , you just have to update .
If you plan to run adb command you have to set the path on your .bashrc "OR" .profile.
export ANDROID_HOME=~/Android/Sdk
PATH=\$PATH:\$ANDROID_HOME:\$ANDROID_HOME/tools:\$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
export PATH
you can create a desktop entry form Android Studio , in case you don't find how to create you can create by creating a file:
/usr/share/applications/android-studio.desktop
inside this file add this lines
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Name=Android Studio
Exec=/opt/android-studio/bin/studio.sh
Comment=Integrated Android developer tools for development and debugging.
Icon=androidstudio
Categories=GNOME;GTK;Development;IDE;
i create a script to do all this job but unfortunately i cant send it here.
PS: make sure you have the JAVA_HOME set .

How to install Android SDK on Ubuntu?

For my Ubuntu machine, I downloaded the latest version of Android SDK from this page.
After extracting the downloaded .tgz file, I was trying to search for installation instructions and found:
To get started on Linux:
Unpack the .zip file you've downloaded. The SDK files are download separately to a user-specified directory.
Make a note of the name and location of the SDK directory on your system—you will need to refer to the SDK directory later when using the SDK tools from the command line.
What exactly are we supposed to do?

Option 1:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install android-sdk
The location of Android SDK on Linux can be any of the following:
/home/AccountName/Android/Sdk
/usr/lib/android-sdk
/Library/Android/sdk/
/Users/[USER]/Library/Android/sdk
Option 2:
Download the Android Studio.
Extract downloaded .zip file.
The extracted folder name will read somewhat like android-studio
To keep navigation easy, move this folder to Home directory.
After moving, copy the moved folder by right clicking it. This action will place folder's location to clipboard.
Use Ctrl Alt T to open a terminal
Go to this folder's directory using cd /home/(USER NAME)/android-studio/bin/
Type this command to make studio.sh executable: chmod +x studio.sh
Type ./studio.sh
A pop up will be shown asking for installation settings. In my particular case, it is a fresh install so I'll go with selecting I do not have a previous version of Studio or I do not want to import my settings.
If you choose to import settings anyway, you may need to close any old project which is opened in order to get a working Android SDK.
From now onwards, setup wizard will guide you.
Android Studio can work with both Open JDK and Oracle's JDK (recommended). Incase, Open JDK is installed the wizard will recommend installing Oracle Java JDK because some UI and performance issues are reported while using OpenJDK.
The downside with Oracle's JDK is that it won't update with the rest of your system like OpenJDK will.
The wizard may also prompt about the input problems with IDEA .
Select install type
Verify installation settings
An emulator can also be configured as needed.
The wizard will start downloading the necessary SDK tools
The wizard may also show an error about Linux 32 Bit Libraries, which can be solved by using the below command:
sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1
After this, all the required components will be downloaded and installed automatically.
After everything is upto the mark, just click finish
To make a Desktop icon, go to 'Configure' and then click 'Create Desktop Entry'
source

To install it on a Debian based system simply do
# Install latest JDK
sudo apt install default-jdk
# get latest sdk tools - link will change. go to https://developer.android.com/studio/#downloads and look for "Command line tools only" download from webpage as you will need to accept terms. Then extract.
mkdir cmdline-tools
mv <folder-you-extracted> android-sdk/cmdline-tools
# So after this step is done you will have ~/cmdline-tools/tools with bin/ and lib/ in it.
Then add the Android SDK to your PATH, open ~/.bashrc in editor and add the following lines into the file
# Export the Android SDK path
export ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/cmdline-tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
Run
source ~/.bashrc
Show all available sdk packages
sdkmanager --list
Identify latest android platform (here it's 33) and run
sdkmanager "platform-tools" "platforms;android-33"
Now you have adb, fastboot and the latest sdk tools installed

Android SDK Manager
sudo snap install androidsdk
Usage
You can use the sdkmanager to perform the following tasks.
List installed and available packages
androidsdk --list [options]
Install packages
androidsdk packages [options]
The packages argument is an SDK-style path as shown with the --list command, wrapped in quotes (for example, "build-tools;29.0.0" or "platforms;android-28"). You can pass multiple package paths, separated with a space, but they must each be wrapped in their own set of quotes.
For example, here's how to install the latest platform tools (which includes adb and fastboot) and the SDK tools for API level 28:
androidsdk "platform-tools" "platforms;android-28"
Alternatively, you can pass a text file that specifies all packages:
androidsdk --package_file=package_file [options]
The package_file argument is the location of a text file in which each line is an SDK-style path of a package to install (without quotes).
To uninstall, simply add the --uninstall flag:
androidsdk --uninstall packages [options]
androidsdk --uninstall --package_file=package_file [options]
Update all installed packages
androidsdk --update [options]
Note
androidsdk it is snap wraper of sdkmanager
all options of sdkmanager work with androidsdk
Location of installed android sdk files : /home/user/AndroidSDK
See all sdkmanager options in google documentation

UPDATE: This method is no longer recommended and installation is as easy as downloading it from the official website, then running the downloaded binary.
ORIGINAL ANSWER:
There is no need to download any binaries or files or follow difficult installation instructions.
All you really needed to do is:
sudo apt update && sudo apt install android-sdk
Update: Ubuntu 18.04 only

I can tell you the steps for installing purely via command line from scratch.
I tested it on Ubuntu on 22 Feb 2021.
create sdk folder
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=/usr/lib/android-sdk
sudo mkdir -p $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
install openjdk
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
download android sdk
Go to https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html
Then down to Command line tools only
Click on Linux link, accept the agreement and instead of downloading right click and copy link address
cd $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
sudo wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/commandlinetools-linux-6858069_latest.zip
sudo unzip commandlinetools-linux-6858069_latest.zip
move folders
Rename the unpacked directory from cmdline-tools to tools,
and place it under $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools,
so now it should look like: $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/tools.
And inside it, you should have: NOTICE.txt bin lib source.properties.
set path
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/latest/bin:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/tools/bin
This had no effect for me, hence the next step
browse to sdkmanager
cd $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmdline-tools/tools/bin
accept licenses
yes | sudo sdkmanager --licenses
create build
Finally, run this inside your project
chmod 777 gradlew
sudo ./gradlew assembleDebug
This creates an APK named -debug.apk at //build/outputs/apk/debug
The file is already signed with the debug key and aligned with zipalign,
so you can immediately install it on a device.

If you are on Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty), and you literally just need the SDK (no Android Studio), you can install it like on Debian:
sudo apt install android-sdk android-sdk-platform-23
export ANDROID_HOME=/usr/lib/android-sdk
In build.gradle, change compileSdkVersion to 23 and buildToolsVersion to 24.0.0
run gradle build

install the android SDK for me was not the problem, having the right JRE and JDK was the problem.
To solve this install the JVM 8 (the last fully compatible, for now):
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre
Next use update-alternative to switch to the jre-8 version:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
You can revert JVM version when you want with the same update-alternatives command
Note that you problably have to do the same after this with javac also (now you have only java command at version 8)
first do:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
next:
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
After this you can install android SDK that require this specific Java version

sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer oracle-java7-set-default
wget https://dl.google.com/dl/android/studio/ide-zips/2.2.0.12/android-studio-ide-145.3276617-linux.zip
unzip android-studio-ide-145.3276617-linux.zip
cd android-studio/bin
./studio.sh

Install Android Studio with
sudo snap install android-studio --classic
when you open it for the first time it will install the SDK for you (with options) .

I am unable to install Android Studio on Linux mint 17.1

I have tried for a lot times, but failed.
The Problem Details: I used these commands
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:paolorotolo/android-studio
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-studio
When i command the first line into the terminal it didn't notice me to getting any error. But after commanding the second line it got error..
There is the screenshot of that Error ...

The official distribution of Android Studio can be downloaded here. You're trying to use an unofficial repository maintained by someone from the community; there is absolutely no guarantee that it's going to work. Please consider downloading the official distribution instead.

So, first you want to make sure your Java is properly installed. You can do this manually or with a PPA.
Manual Method:
Get rid of the Open JDK that may be installed:
sudo apt-get update && apt-get remove openjdk*
Download Oracle JDK from here. You are looking for a linux version
with tar.gz extension. Also choose the right version from 32-bit
(x86) and 64bit (x64) one.
sudo mkdir -p /opt/java
Move the unzipped download to where it will live (I put the version
number in this example):
sudo mv jdk1.8.0_91 /opt/java
Make this JDK your system's default:
sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/opt/java/jdk1.8.0_91/bin/java" 1
sudo update-alternatives --set java /opt/java/jdk1.8.0_91/bin/java
Finally, test your Java version:
java -version
PPA Method:
Get rid of the Open JDK that may be installed:
sudo apt-get update && apt-get remove openjdk*
ADD PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
UPDATE
sudo apt-get update
INSTALL
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer
Now Install Android Studio - either manually or via PPA:
Manual Method:
Download android studio:
Get it from http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html#download then untar it under /opt/android-studio (recommended).
Launch it!
run ./studio.sh in the /opt/android-studio/bin directory. This will launch the setup and download all the SDKs and other necessary files on your first run, and this is what you will do to launch in the future. Just make a shortcut :)
PPA Method:
ADD PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:paolorotolo/android-studio
UPDATE
sudo apt-get update
INSTALL
sudo apt-get install android-studio
NOTE: This PPA is maintained by Google, not just "someone from the community"
