Answer 2

For Windows:

set ANDROID_HOME=C:\ installation location \android-sdk

set PATH=%PATH%;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools

Taken from this installation guide.

Answer 3

Using Android Studio on Windows the system variables settings have changed a little.

You still have to add a system variable ANDROID_HOME, but pointing to the directory containing the android SDK usually installed in C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio\sdk.

You also need to add the following to the Path system variable:

;%ANDROID_HOME%\platform-tools;%ANDROID_HOME%\tools;

Taken from: https://github.com/simnova/webdevdocs/wiki/Installing-PhoneGap-and-Android-Studio-on-Windows

SDK Path also be in C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Android\sdk

Answer 4

For Windows I just had to add an env variable pointing to the SDK folder. Done! (The accepted answer didn´t work for me)

Answer 5

Using Android Studio on Mac, run this on your terminal:

export ANDROID_HOME=/Applications/Android\ Studio.app/sdk/
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools:$ANDROID_HOME/platforms-tools

Then, when you type

android

at your terminal, it will run something

Answer 6

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/
