Answer 1

In Linux,

edit .bashrc file and add the ANDROID_HOME and PATH variable,

export ANDROID_HOME=/usr/local/android-sdk-linux/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platforms-tools

After saving .bashrc file, run

source ~/.bashrc

then in type

android in a terminal

if it will run, ANDROID_HOME and PATH is set,

if you get this message,

bash: /src/android-sdk/tools/android: Permission denied

then run

sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/android-sdk-linux/tools/android

otherwise you will get same error message

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.

NB: Use your android sdk installation path instead of /usr/local/android-sdk-linux/
