Getting "Launch error: Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection timed out" when trying to debug my app on my device in android

Question

I tried all the possible options given on net and on this site, but none of them worked.

I am getting:

Launch error: Failed to connect to remote VM. Connection timed out.

when I am trying to debug my application on my mobile device. the application runs properly with out any issue when I am running normally

I have used at lease these links by now:

None of the above seem to work.

Answer 1

Go to Window -> Preferences -> General -> Network Connections, and check if there is any proxy set here, change the 'Active Provider' to be 'Direct' and try again.

Answer 2

I dont know why, but this works for me: First Run(or Debug) your application in an emulator and then Debug the application on the device (without closing the emulator). let me know if this works for you.
