Solution 3 - Android
I had the same exact isuue with the latest Android Studio 2.3.2 and Instant Run.
here what I did : (I'll give you two ways to achive that one disable for specefic project, and second for whole android studio):
- if you want to disable instant-run ONLY for the project that is not compatible (i.e the one with SugarORM lib)
on root of your projct open gradle-->gradle-wrapper.properties then change the value
distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.14.1-all.zip
and on your project build.gradle change the value
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.2.3'
- If you want to disable instant-run for all project (Across Android Studio)
in older version of AS settings for instant run is
File -> Other Settings -> Default Settings ->Build,Execution,Deployment
However In most recent version of Android Studio i.e 2.3.2 , instant run settings is:
- for Android Studio Installed on Apple devices -> Preferences... (see following image)
- for Android Studio Installed on Linux or Windows -> in File-> Settings...
Edited: If for any reason the Instant-run settings is greyed out do this :
Help-> Find Action...
and then type 'enable isntant run' and click (now you should be able to change the value in Preferences... or file->Settings... , if that was the case then this is an Android Studio bug :-)
Solution 4 - Android
Turn off Instant Run from Settings → Build, Execution, Deployment → Instant Run and uncheck Enable Instant Run.
Solution 5 - Android
the design in android 2.3 (stable version) is slightly changed.
> File → Settings → Build, Execution, Deployment → Instant Run and > uncheck Enable Instant Run.
Solution 6 - Android
Update August 2019
In Android Studio 3.5 Instant Run was replaced with Apply Changes. And it works in different way: APK is not modified on the fly anymore but instead runtime instrumentation is used to redefine classes on the fly (more info). So since Android Studio 3.5 instant run settings are replaced with Deployment (Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Deployment):

I tried all above but nothing helps, at last i just figured out that under setting >> apps, device still has an entry for uninstalled application as disabled, i just uninstalled from there and it starts working.
