如何修复 Android Studio 中的 INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK 错误？

Question

I have recently updated my Android Studio to 3.6.1, thereby also updating gradle plugin to 3.6.1 and the gradle wrapper to 5.6.4

When running the debug build, I keep getting this error

Install failed: The application could not be installed: 
INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK 
The APKs are invalid. 

• I have checked my package and applicationId and it is the same
• I tried using android:extractNativeLibs="true" on the manifest <application> tag and it is still does not work
• Kept on cleaning and rebuilding still doesn't work
• Invalidated caches, deleted .gradle, idea, and build files and it still does not work
• I have also used this on gradle.properties file org.gradle.caching=false but still does not work I checked the idea.log file and here is what it is saying:

*Take note I replaced my package name with PACKAGE_NAME and project names

I have run out of options. Worst case is I will downgrade gradle and gradle wraper and even Android Studio, which I deliberately hate as it is a step backwards

Answer 1

另一种解决方案是删除 ../android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk 文件，然后运行“npm run android”/“yarn android”

Answer 2

I tried updating the Android Studio but it still get the INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK error. Then I updated the firebase dependencies and still to no avail

Interestingly though, it worked smoothly on another project that I have. Which led me to check which dependencies they differ in and realized that the only major dependency is the AppDynamics gradle plugin

I remove the AppDynamics instrumentation and it worked! I am assuming that even before, the AppDynamics instrumentation in gradle was the cause that prevented the app from running properly. I have confirmed it is an issue with the AppDynamics plugin. See link for reference: https://community.appdynamics.com/t5/End-User-Monitoring-EUM/AppDynamic-EUM-setup-for-Android-Cordova-project/td-p/38864

For the meantime, I will be downgrading until AppDynamics provides a fix

Sometimes it is because of the emulator/device you are installing your apk on. If you have previously installed apk on a device and then uninstalled, then it might still exist on your device. So, in the emulator, go to settings -> Apps , then check for the application in the list. If exist, click on that particular application and then click on 'Uninstall for all users'(Typically from three dots in right corner).

Hope it helps :)

使用相同的捆绑 ID 删除手机上的现有应用程序对我有用。

Answer 5

I remember having the same issue and solving it with build>clean project. but as you say that this doesnt work here is a link talking about subtle changes in your apps package name in the Manifest and its pretty recent. Just thought it might be woth a look as it does not appear in the list of things you have already checked. plus the logs you published talk about the package name being unknown so that seems suspicious.

I hope it helps

Answer 6

When you are set up the emulator (AVD) you are choosing the External & Internal storage sizes.

AND I think you exceeded that storage size.

Solutions (They are all under freeing some storage "category"):-

• Uninstall unnecessary apps.
• Wipe emulator data from AVD manager.
• Extend the storage size by editing the specific emulator.

Answer 7

I faced the same issue. Try to uninstall the app via terminal adb uninstall com.packagename command and then reinstall the app. Basically, sometimes the app is isntalled for other users in device and uninstalling from device just uninstalls it from current user, that's why it gives this error. Give it a try, I hope it will helps.

Answer 8

The problem started happening for me in Android Studio 4.0. I get "INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK" when trying to launch an app on Emulator right after opening Android Studio.

Found a workaround - if I launch the app on real device first, then launching on emulator is not a problem. Works 100%.

Android Studio is still buggy as hell, unfortunately...

Answer 9

What works for me is to do the following:

1. Uninstall the dev version (or store version of the app). If you have an app with the same bundle id it will refuse to install a different variation of the sample app. adb uninstall <BUNDLE_ID>
2. refresh the android build cd ./android && ./gradlew clean && cd ../
3. Run react-native run-android --variant=release

Answer 10

application>- android:extractNativeLibs="true" 

work for me

---

minSdkVersion 23

ndk {
   abiFilters "armeabi-v7a"
}

minSdkVersion is less than 23, work for me too
