This fixed it for me (on a fully-patched Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial Xerus)).

Disclaimer: I cleaned up everything beforehand:

rm -Rf ~/android-studio/ ~/.AndroidStudio2.2/ ~/.android/ ~/Android/

Then:

• wget https://dl.google.com/dl/android/studio/ide-zips/2.3.0.8/android-studio-ide-162.3764568-linux.zip
• wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.3-linux.zip
• unzip android-studio-ide-162.3764568-linux.zip -d ~/
• mkdir -p ~/Android/sdk
• unzip tools_r25.2.3-linux.zip -d ~/Android/sdk
• ~/Android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager "platforms;android-25"
• ~/Android/sdk/tools/bin/sdkmanager --channel=3 emulator
• ~/android-studio/bin/studio.sh
• Click "Configure" in the launch window
• Select "SDK Manager" in the menu
• The list on the right shows "partially installed" for API level 25
• Click "Edit" on the right of "Android SDK Location"
• You get the warning "an existing Android SDK was detected wizard will only download missing or outdated SDK components"
• Click "Next"
• Click "Next"
• [wait while it installs]
• Click "Finish"
