You can update your system with unsupported packages from this untrusted PPA
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-mate-dev/ppa
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-mate-dev/xenial-mate
sudo apt-get update

To remove added ppa's manually

Use the --remove flag, similar to how the PPA was added:

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:whatever/ppa

As a safer alternative, you can install ppa-purge:

sudo apt-get install ppa-purge

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

sudo apt-get update

Android 7-8 need openjdk-8
Android 5-6 need openjdk-7
I installed Openjdk and uninstalled it later as it comes prebuild in Android 7-8.
jdk 8 is available and can be installed directly from apt-get but jdk is archived
which needs extra effort to get.
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk / sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openjdk-r/ppa

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk

Will set out directory on sdb1 after a successful build.

$export OUT_DIR_COMMON_BASE=<path-to-your-out-directory>

mkdir AOSP
