I want to install Ubuntu but I am confused between 14.04 ("Trusty Tahr") LTS and 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn".
Which one I should choose as I am a developer for Android so I could have a completely stable environment.

This is the tool recommended by Canonical for Android development (source) it's now called Ubuntu Make and it's a command-line tool for installing the latest version of the Android Studio and SDK along with all the required dependencies. It focuses on the LTS versions of Ubuntu (and, therefore, backports any updates that would be useful for Android developers to the LTS release of Ubuntu) since they realize that Android developers don't want to have to upgrade Ubuntu every 6 months, want stability but also want an updated development environment.
Their focus is on the LTS releases of Ubuntu so I recommend you install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" (and then install Ubuntu Make and Android Studio as described here).

I think either are a good option the only difference really would be the former has long term support being a developer my self I would lean towards the newer,
If you feel you don’t require the long term support and are competent perhaps you should also.
