I updated to the new Android Studio version 4.0 and there's an irritating issue I am facing which
I believe is a result of instant run (or whatever the new name of this feature is). Basically on using the Android studio run/play button, the app does not launch on the device sometimes and erratically. It always installs but sometimes fails to launch.
I have had similar issues in the past and simply disabled instant run, however, in Android Studio 4.0 I can't see any option anywhere to disable it. I read somewhere that the feature name is changed but searching for that name also didn't yield any results.
How can I disable instant run in android studio 4.0?
I've faced the same issue and disabling parallel run option in the edit configuration window solved the issue for me.
"Apply Changes" has been introduced in replacement of instant run. Besides the Run green button in Android studio, there is apply change option in android studio 4.

I saw a similar question but none of the answers actually tell you how to disable it, just give workarounds for the issue. I want to totally disable instant run, how can I do that?
The issue I have is that no matter what I do, use the run button, the debug button, the apply changes button, clean, etc, any code I just wrote won't run until I uninstall the app on the phone, if I don't do that all I see is the old code running. I'm guessing instant run is the issue since I always get the message that says App restart successful without requiring re-install.
From android studio 3.5 and above you cant disable it but if your running an earlier version: Go to Android Studio Settings or Preferences (for MAC) -> Build,Execution,Deployment -> Instant Run. Then deselect the "Enable Instant Run" checkbox at the top.
I have seen many questions like this, but they didn't solve my problem.
I use IntelliJ IDEA for developing Android applications. Whenever I run an app and deploy it to a device, whether it is a physical device or an emulator, the instant run option always remains greyed out, even if the app is already running. When I hover over the icon, the cursor tip shows that Instant run is disabled for the current variant. See this :
In the IDE errors panel, it shows this :
I had already used this feature in Android Studio without any problems, but I can't find the solution to this problem in IntelliJ. Please help me solve this problem. I am using the latest version of IntelliJ IDEA.
What I have tried:
I have disabled, enabled the instant run multiple times.
I have tested the instant run on many projects.
I tried Invalidate Caches and Restart.
I tried to change on XML only, Java only, static fields, variables. all the cases restarts the whole app.
Still the instant run button restarts the app always.
The devices i use for testing are
Motorolla Moto G4 Android 6.0.1 and Samsung Galaxy s4 Android 5.1
Any solution for this problem ?
Seems like There's a bug in Android Studio 2.3(24Feb2017 Build)I have Workaround for Instant Run.
Working for me:
com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.0'
Not Working for me:(>2.3.0)
com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.1'
So You could try 2.3.0 for Project-level build.gradle
Welcome to #AndroidDev :)X)
I know it's been a long time since the question but I find myself in the same problem and I just discovered the solution:
In Gradle (Module: app)
buildTypes {
...
debug { multiDexEnabled true }
}
The mutidex was enabled in debug mode this was causing in my case the failure in instantrun at android studio 2.3.3
Just a little hint. When I switched from Android Studio 1.5 to 2.0 (stable) the new Instant Run didn't work with layout changes. I tried Run > Clean and rerun app and I solved, since that moment Instant Run works.And please refer below link.I hope it will help you out
Android Studio 2.0: Why does Instant Run not work when modifying xml layout resources?
or you can further refer below link for configuration
Android Studio 2.0 Instant Run Not Working
I also had a same problem after update "Android Studio 2.3"
Even small xml change went full install.
message : "Instant Run applied code changes and restarted the app. Static Initializer Change"
So I started to find which one made this problem from libraries I use.
and when I remove realm dependency from my code, Instant run work properly.
hmm. It's not a perfect solution. but this might be a clue.
ps - removing dependency is little bit annoying. so first time I removed realm initialize code but it is not working. only remove all realm dependency will work...
I had the same issue. For running the app its Shift+F10 for applying changes its Ctrl+F10. Try it. Hope it works.
Android Studio 2.1 instant run is not updating the app on the device
I observed an issue with AndroidStudio 2.1. When I run the app with small java code changes, it doesn't update app on the device sometimes. Instead it shows a message
No changes to deploy // (Don't show again)
Am I missing any thing here?
As a work around I do clean build every time in order to reflect the changes in app.
Upgrade Android studio version to 3 or more. this bug is resolved.
This was a bug on version 2.0 instant run and issues were reported check these links

https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=206627
thing to do would be to disable Instant Run entirely by
Settings > Build, Execution, Deployment > Instant Run > Enable
Instant Run
You can file a bug at this link: Google Issue Tracker
please check this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/35169716/2826147 to turn it off.
Thats a bug in Android Studio, I noticed it in build 2.0 sometimes it failed to update, so what i do is I rebuild the entire project, one more thing, if you have multidex enabled and your device is not running 5 <it will not work, make sure its disabled and rebuild your project.
I have just noticed that whenever i closed my app and then run it worked. See my post here.

I download the latest Android Studio 2.0 from Android Develop Website.
But when I change a line of code and use the "instant run", instead of updating the changes, it prompt me "no changes to deploy".
This will happen on code changes and XML changes.
But when I restart Android Studio, things will works fine for once or twice and then "no changes to deploy" Come again!
I used my old SDK on Android Studio older version.
JDK is 1.7.0
Windows7 64
So, is anyone has this same bug?
A lot of people are having this issue as Instant Run is still quite buggy. The best thing to do would be to disable Instant Run entirely by Preferences > Build, Execution, Deployment > Instant Run > Enable Instant Run
Solved by rebuilding Project (menu Build -> Rebuild project)
This sounds like a bug. It would be super helpful to our team if you can report the bug with specific repro steps so we can investigate. Without your help, it's going to be very difficult for us to track down these problems. We want Instant Run to work for you.

Also having this issue with Android Studio 2.1. Turning off Instant Run seems to have fixed it, which is unfortunate, but I was wasting more time failing to understand why old code was being run than Instant Run was saving me! Running Ubuntu, so agree not just a Windows bug.
Run TAB next to anroid-monitor, sometimes it shows, no changes to deploy mean changes in code has not been added to your app(this bug has been resolved to a great extent).
Sometimes it runs the new app and when you restart your app it shows the old one(this bug has been resolved, officially declared on android site ).
Solution :
Disable instant run under your project settings(you can face some error while gradle build if you switch from instant-Run to normal one then Try clean option or if still there's an error then you can delete those files at the path shown by the error)
Try to use the latest studio release which has totally improved
instant-run.
Not a solution but as a better workaround I'd prefer to:
Press "Recent Apps"
Simply close my app from the list
Run the app again
This takes less time than Clean and Rebuild.
Update:
Rerun the app also works:
When Instant Run does not works correctly:
As far as I realized, Instant Run works properly when I change my views ids otherwise it does't recognise changes in xml and gives me "No changes to deploy"
I also used clean and rerun app or Cntrl+F5 this fix my problem
