I was using the in-built emulator and kept encountering this problem   To fix it    Go to  Run   Edit Configurations Click your device in the dropdown near  Preferred Android Virtual Device  and press Shift   Enter Close the config screen  and focus the new window with the AVDs   On the emulator you use choose the menu option on the right  and choose  stop  and  wipe data   For good measure  Build   Clean Project   Some of this might be unnecessary but I can t replicate the problem deliberately in order to trial a minimum amount of steps

Finally I ve SOLVED it   Below a temporary solution  Issue was reported to Google   First of all I found in Run log that Android Studion 2 3 tries to install app-debug apk from many slices  like this        adb install-multiple -r   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 1 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug dep dependencies apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 0 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 2 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 9 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 4 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 3 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 5 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 8 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 7 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build intermediates split-apk debug slices slice 6 apk   E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build outputs apk app-debug apk   Then I tried to install only app-debug apk from command line by       adb install -d E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build outputs apk app-debug apk   App was installed successfully but was failed to run on my phone   And finally    I recompiled app-debug apk from command line as       gradlew bat assembleDebug    Repeat installation of app-debug apk from command line and became happy       adb install -rd E  Android Projects ActivityLifecycle app build outputs apk app-debug apk   This is definitely some gradle problem in AndroidStudio 2 3

Before trying anything else in this post  I would do  Build    Clean Project  It solved my problem and it is the simplest solution  Sometimes  the cleaning doesnt get some links  so I also recommend you to restart your devices  either virtual or physical   If it doesnt work out  try turning of Instant Run by File   Settings   Build Execution Deployment   Instant Run   Un-check  Only after trying this two simple solutions  I would try the others
