1、download Android Studio from the offical website
https://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/studio.html
(You could also check the offical website tips to install the Android Studio.)
2、Unpack the downloaded Tar file.
$ sudo tar xvf android-studio-bundle-130.687321-linux.tgz -C ~/Software/Android/
3、turn to the unpack dir
$ cd ~/Software/Android/android-studio/
$ cd bin/
4、try to run the Android Studio first time
$ sh studio.sh // or $ ./studio.sh
It would take a minute to download some libs when running the first time.
5、add the shell script to run the studio backstage. ( Otherwise the studio would catch your terminal and close after you close this terminal.)
$ pwd ~/Software/Android/android-studio/bin $ vim androidstart
add the following messenge to the 'androidstart'
#!/bin/sh studio.sh &
you couldn't run this script right now, because the PATH isn't useable.
6、add the PATH to ~/.bashrc
$ vim ~/.bashrc // add the following messege # android studio export ANDORID_HOME=/home/username/Software/Android/android-studio export PATH=${ANDORID_HOME}/bin:$PATH
7、enjoy it.
$ chmod 775 androidstart $ sudo source ~/.bashrc $ androidstart Ctrl + C // the android studio won't close again.
