I encountered a similar problem, I moved the project directory, resulting in installation failure, my solution is as follows: Build->ReBuild

Solution 9 - Android

Oh my goodness, after a long time I have resolved the issue by changing the ApplicationID: "com.company.2016app" to "com.company.app" in build.grade. It resolved all my issues. Now its working great.

Solution 10 - Android

In my case clean project and rebuild works, no need to disable instant run and restart.

Solution 11 - Android

In lollipop and above versions Android introduced multiple users, When you delete an app it still exists in device. Please make sure your app is deleted from all users and then reinstall it.

You can check by going to Settings->Apps->All and check your app in the list, On selecting your app tap on more button in actionbar and select uninstall for all users.

Solution 12 - Android

Below solution worked for my Xiaomi mobile phone:

Go to Settings -> Additional settings -> Developer options and check Install via USB, if toast The device is temporarily restricted shown, please turn your WI-FI off, turn on mobile data. Then try it again.

If A.S. Instance Run is still not work when you finished all steps above, perhaps you turned on MIUI optimization, please follow below step and try again:

Settings -> Additional settings -> Developer options and uncheck Turn on MIUI optimization

Solution 13 - Android

Different solutions for the same problem:

> 1. uncheck the Instant Run

Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Instant Run.

> 2. Restart Android Studio

Click on File> invalidate Caches/Restart, then click on Invalidate and Restart button from the pop up window.

> 3. Check Device's memory

Sometimes your device don't have enough space to install new applications, in that case android studio through this error.

> 4. Check manifest for Activities Declaration

Make sure that your manifest.java have declared all of the used activities properly.

Hope it would help :)

Solution 15 - Android

I also had the same problem, I tried the solution to disable the instant run, but you can not use the instant run, which for me is harmful, because it is an extremely useful tool.

I found another solution, which is to delete the "build" folder and re-run the project, and the error disappears, the app is executed and I can use the instant run.

Delete this folder

Solution 16 - Android

If your device is a Xiaomi

  1. Enable OEM unlocking
  2. Disable Verify apps over USB

My Screenshoot

Solution 17 - Android

If your device is a Xiaomi the answer is:

Go to settings > installed apps > on the top choose "ALL" > go to the bottom find "Documents" app (its in bottom because disabled) > enable it with pressing enable on the bottom screen...

edit: I was used Android Studio 2.3 at the time

Solution 18 - Android

Try this: Go to File> invalidate Caches/Restart then click on Invalidate and Restart button from the pop up. Now, try running your project.

I just updated minSdkVersion to 17 and sync. And then I solved that problem.

}

  1. go to sdk folder/platform-tools by cmd ,type adb shell
  2. delete all the .apk files of your project from ../output-folder
  3. restart your emulator
  4. run your project.

Solution 28 - Android

This error comes with Android Studio lower than 2.4 when you try to enable Java 8 features in gradle settings following the instruction. Error can be reproduced in a new project with those gradle settings.

A higher version is needed, or a preview one.

Solution 29 - Android

Solution for my specific case:

Maybe it has happened because you have installed your apk first by the Google Play (my apk was running OK until I found an error) and then trying to reinstall it from your Android Studio (in order to figure it out), I have a solution:

Go to your phone/tablet. Settings -> Backup & Reset -> Disable Automatic Restore

I hope it works :)

Solution 30 - Android

Even after following all the suggestions, if it shows error then check your buildType in Gradle.

Make sure signingConfig signingConfigs.config

is in release scope, not in debug.

Solution 31 - Android

Check </provider> that have been added recently to the manifest

Something like android.support.v4.content.FileProvider

Also check authorities of the </provider> if it's correct

Solution 32 - Android
