Nevermind I was able to have a successful build by using Oracles Java 8 not open jdk.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java -y
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer**

Thanks for coming back to that issue with an update.
That's still weird however since we're using openjdk-8-jdk on both buildozer and p4a Docker containers and it works fine

Command:
python -m buildozer android debug deploy run logcat

So apparently the build was "successful" but the apk itself is unable to run. There is a no compiled python is present to zip and the java patch failed (exit code 1). Any ideas?

OK can you try building it from Docker?

docker run \
  --volume "$HOME/.buildozer":/home/user/.buildozer \
  --volume "$PWD":/home/user/hostcwd \
  kivy/buildozer android debug

Deployment is not yet working from Docker, but you can deploy the APK directly with adb install outside Docker.
Also you may need to clean your ~/.buildozer and .buildozer directories as they could clash with Docker. So before running the build from Docker you can go to your project dir and:

rm -rf ~/.buildozer .buildozer && mkdir ~/.buildozer`

I could use Docker, but I am not really familiar with it yet and I'll need to set some time aside to figure that out. As for using just Buildozer I was able to use android studios debugger after the buildozer apk was compiled and I got this error: No module named '_cffi_backend'. I installed cffi build-essential libssl-dev libffi-dev python-dev with pip and still getting the module error.

bballjbv1 on 14 Mar 2019

Here is a stack that helped me out:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34370962/no-module-named-cffi-backend

I had to force reinstall cffi and upgrade pip -vvv install --upgrade --force-reinstall cffi to make sure FFI() could be instantiated in python. Then I included cffi in the specs under requirements to get past the error. I was using sounddevice so I had included that in the requirements but left out cffi because it was a requirement by sounddevice.

However:
sounddevice requires pyaudio that is built on portaudios c/c++ bindings and 3.7 is not compatible with pyaudio. So I have to use python 3.6. At this point because of how finicky the recipes are I am going to have to just use kivy's native sound player that is more limited. Unless, anyone knows of a good standing recipe of versions to use in this build, especially with cython, that works with python 3.7

Delete your .gradle folder in your home directory. It is probably corrupted. Run the command again. Worked for me.

Delete the .gradle folder in your home directory. Once u do this run the command again, then the buildozer will download the Gradle once again and the app will be built without any problems.

Try to run this command: sudo rm -rf ~/.gradle
