I have no idea if this was what was causing it, but first I uninstalled then re-installed Android studio, deleted the old project, and created a new one.

It still didn't work, BUT I just noticed a little error log button.

You see, I named my application com.con.pfq. It wasn't liking the "con" part - said it's an invalid file name.

Sooo... I recreated the app as com.connoriscool.pfqmmobile. It liked that more.

No idea what's happening here, but that's the solution.
