Android studio freezes on debugging with message "SIGNAL = SIGABRT (signal SIGABRT)"

Question

My app runs perfectly with no problems. But when I try to debug it, android studio freezes. So I get the message "Waiting for debugger" and then that message goes away and next I get only a black screen in the emulator. I also get the message

SIGNAL = SIGABRT (signal SIGABRT)

in the debug window under variables tab.

How do I fix this?

I had been facing same problem for some time. I got to know that the fix is very simple. Disable instant run. Go to "File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Instant Run" and disable the instant run. Please try out this.
