Answer 1

Make sure you have proper environment variables defined (add this in .bash_login or .profile and do source .profile):

export ANDROID_SDK="/opt/software/android-sdk"
export ANDROID_NDK="/opt/software/android-ndk"
export ANDROID_HOME="$ANDROID_SDK"
export ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS="$ANDROID_SDK/platform-tools"
export PATH="${PATH}:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_PLATFORM_TOOLS"
