Android Studio-- Cause: error=86, Bad CPU type in executable

ADB doesn't support ARM, it needs Rosetta to run. I fixed this issue by installing Rosetta. Open Terminal and run the following command:

softwareupdate --install-rosetta

Finally I solved this by a little change.

goto the error module and changed the buildToolsVersion to anther(bigger version) in build.gradle file.

rebuild again, the error disappeared.

I fixed this error by installing rosetta. Try running this command in your terminal

softwareupdate --install-rosetta

Upgrading buildToolsVersion is not work for me, but after upgraded gradle version, the error disappeared.

buildscript {
repositories {
    jcenter()
    google() <--don't forget to add this
}

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3' <--upgrade here
}

If you using mac m1
First, open the terminal after copy paste this command

softwareupdate --install-rosetta

and after that, press "a"

I'm not 100% sure but seems like updating AGP to 7.1.0 solves the issue.

Android Studio has built-in installer for M1 ARM64 architecture compatible Java:

Android Studio -> Preferences -> Gradle -> Gradle JDK -> Download JDK...

You feel free to select anything that have aarch64 tag. Azul for example

After that, run ./gradlew clean to see, that your project is used fresh ARM supported JDK.

But, for some cases (like adb) you need to install rosetta. Other things, like building project going directly through ARM without binary translator.

Following working fine for Mac M1 users (If ARM version of android studio is installed --> android-studio-2021.x.x.xx-mac_arm.dmg)):

Open terminal and install rosetta:

softwareupdate --install-rosetta

press a and the press enter(return) key.

Now rebuild or sync your project. It will work smooth.
