AndroidStudio install on Chromebook - crouton-Skript Ubuntu14.04

I bought a Chromebook from Acer with an ARM-Architecture (ARM7 => 32bit, i think)

I want to program in Android-Studio.

So I downloaded it and tried to install, but it didn't work.

The error-message is Unable to run mksdcard SDK tool

After research i know that the problem is with 64bit-Architecture and I have to install the 32bit libs

sudo apt-get install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32stdc++6

I cant install these libs. I think that the reason is my ARM-Architecture.

Has anyone an idea to solve the Problem?

My operating system:

ACER ChromeBook ARM7-Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (upgraded from 12.04 LTS) installed by crouton-script

Thanks a lot and i hope you understand my problem. Sorry for my bad English. I couldn't find any solution in German or English.

I don't think this is currently possible as Android SDK is not available pre-compiled for ARM, only for x86(64) architecture. In theory, Android Studio should work as its Java, but I suspect it has native executable (.so) library dependencies as well as they would need to be recompiled for ARM as well trying to run Android Studio on a HP Chromebook 14 (Tegra K1 based) with ubuntu installed crouton and openjdk installed via apt just causes the java exe to stop - not error message or segfault, just does nothing.
