Installation instructions:

    Since Android Studio 2.2.3 is not yet available on any PPA repository, we will go ahead and install it via the source file. Before we do that, we need to first install Oracle Java JDK/JRE 7 which is required for Android Studio to run.

    Java 9 appears not to work so stick to Java 7. or Java 8

    Open terminal and insert command line...
 

$ sudo apt-get purge openjdk*s $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer $ sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-set-default
