Cordova: ERROR: Error: ANDROID_HOME is not set and "android" command not in your PATH. You must fulfill at least one of these conditions

I'm trying to get Phone-gap to work, I followed this tutorial: http://www.levibotelho.com/development/the-complete-guide-to-running-phonegap-on-ubuntu/. I am one Ubuntu 13.10. I have tried many different solutions found on stack-overflow and others, and non of them work.
The export I am using:
export ANDROID_HOME="/usr/local/android-sdk-linux/tools"
export ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS="/usr/local/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools"
export PATH="$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME:$ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS"
The error I am getting is this:
Running command: /hdd/Fred/Documents/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/cordova/run --emulator
ERROR: Error: ANDROID_HOME is not set and "android" command not in your PATH. You must fulfill at least one of these conditions.

Please help.

#Rupesh is correct - set ANDROID_HOME to the sdk dir, not the tools dir.
So you don't have to do this each time you open a terminal, pop it into your .bashrc in your home dir:
export ANDROID_HOME="/usr/local/android-sdk-linux/"
(As the error you get implies, if ANDROID_HOME is set, you shouldn't need to modify your PATH, but I guess it can't do any harm)
If that still doesn't work, check that the sdk path is actually correct.

but infact the $ANDROID_HOME has set properly also android command runs on terminal and opens up the SDK manage.
following is my environtment variables
:~/myApp$ echo $ANDROID_HOME
/home/user/android-sdks
:~/myApp$ echo $PATH
/home/user/android-sdks/tools/:/home/user/android-sdks/platform-tools/:/usr/local/ant/bin/:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/bin

You shouldn't use sudo for adding platforms, but anyway:
Before adding android Platform try with
export ANDROID_HOME=your/path/android/sdk

getting error, while adding android platform for phonegap

Today I started phonegap, as per documentation I am trying to setup my environment into my local machine.
In this process, I installed android SDK and set the environment variables in bashrc file.
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/bin # Add RVM to PATH for scripting
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64
export JAVA_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME
ANDROID_HOME=$HOME/Git/adt-bundle-linux/sdk
export ANDROID_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME
ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS=$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
export ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS
ANDROID_TOOLS=$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export ANDROID_TOOLS
PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_TOOLS
export PATH
ANT_HOME=/usr/share/ant
export ANT_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$ANT_HOME/bin
I switch to my working director and getting the following error after ran the cordova platform add android

Which command shall I use later. If one of it,what's the problem.
can anyone help me.

I face the same problem let's do this javac -version then it show the available versions like
The program 'javac' can be found in the following packages:
* default-jdk
* ecj
* gcj-4.8-jdk
* openjdk-7-jdk
* gcj-4.6-jdk
* openjdk-6-jdk
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
fallow that.
I hope this is helps you.

i had same problem
add this to your path. in windows i did like this path=%path%;%android_home%/platform-tools

Add the path to ANDROID_HOME like this
export ANDROID_HOME='your path'
after check the path like echo $ANDROID_HOME

What happened to me was, that I had the openjre installed, but javac is actually part of the openjdk. Hope this helps someone.

error on “cordova platform add android”

I am creating an application in phonegap and I arrived at the stage of creating an android application, I try to install from the command line, I always receive this error here is an example of error, knowing that I have installed apache ant and I set their path in the path variable
C:\Users\user\.cordova\lib\android\cordova\3.5.0\bin\node_modules\q\q.js:126
throw e;

Follow these steps :
Download Ant from here
Uncompress the downloaded file into a directory.
Set environmental variables JAVA_HOME to your Java environment, ANT_HOME to the directory you uncompressed Ant to, and add ${ANT_HOME}/bin (Unix) or %ANT_HOME%/bin (Windows) to your PATH.
Check Setup

Hope this helps.

Phonegap- platform add command not executed due to ant error

You need to install Apache ANT on your system and set the ant path in your system environment variables. Set the below options in the user variables.
ANT_HOME C:\apache-ant-1.8.2
Path ;C:\apache-ant-1.8.2\bin
Replace C:\apache-ant-1.8.2 with the ant installation path on your system. And you need add ;C:\apache-ant-1.8.2\bin to your path. Don't replace it.
