Answer 1

Setting an ANDROID_HOME variable in your .bashrc or whatever will work, but remember to export that variable so that it is available to subprocesses. Setting ANDROID_HOME with the other methods suggested here will get you through some initial errors, but without ANDROID_HOME exported your build will probably fail at some point.
