Gradle build successful but no app installed on android device-CodePudding

I am working on android kotlin room basic app. I was able to successfully gradle build on Android Dolphin but the app does not install on a physical android phone. How can I install the app on the phone? Stack trace:

CodePudding user response：

You will have to go into developer mode of the phone. Go to Settings -> About Phone -> look for Build Version. Tap build version about 8 times. This will enable developer mode on the phone.

Now go into the developer mode and scroll down and toggle on the USB Debugging. Plug your device in the computer while Android studio is open. When you plug in the phone you will want to allow file transfer. Then Android Studio will send a message to the phone and you will select Allow and check the box that says remember choice.

Once you have completed that Android should detect the device in the drop down under devices. If you don't see it go to the AVD and look for physical device.

If it does auto detect, then you run the app and it will show on the device instead of the emulator.

Some Android phones may be different in getting to the build version. So just get to build version then everything else will be following the prompts.

Also your phone will have to be the same API version or higher. Example, Android 10 based API will not install on an Android 9 based phone. Be sure the API are equivalent or better.
