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.
android:extractNativeLibs="true"
on the manifest <application>
tag and it is still does not workorg.gradle.caching=false
but still does not work
I checked the idea.log file and here is what it is saying:2020-03-22 00:49:04,191 [4654427] INFO - ild.invoker.GradleBuildInvoker - Gradle build finished in 1 m 37 s 411 ms

*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
One other solution would be just remove the ../android/app/build/outputs/apk/debug/app-debug.apk file and then run "npm run android" / "yarn android"
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
Deleting existing app on the phone with same bundle ID worked for me.
