Answer 1

If you're not using gradle (creating a project from an APK, for instance), this can be done through the Android Studio UI (as of version 3.3.2):

• Right-click the project root directory, pick Open Module Settings
• Hit the + Add Content Root button (center right)
• Add your path and hit OK

In my experience (with native code), as long as your .so's are built with debug symbols and from the same absolute paths, breakpoints added in source files will be automatically recognized.
