The Bible does not state how Andrew died. It only states how James died (Acts 12:2). And, it states how Judas Iscariot died (Matthew 27:3-5). I would not count Judas Iscariot as a disciple though.

The "tradition" of how Andrew died goes like this:

Andrew was crucified on an x-shaped cross in Greece. After being whipped severely by seven soldiers, they tied his body to the cross with cords to prolong his agony. His followers reported that when he was led toward the cross, Andrew saluted it in these words: "I have long desired and expected this happy hour. The cross has been consecrated by the body of Christ hanging on it." He continued to preach to his tormentors for two days until he died.
