Application Installation Failed - INSTALL_FAILED_VERIFICATION_FAILURE

Started a new project, and this occurred to me:

I am using Genymotion as my emulator. Not sure what causes this problem.

I tried:

  • Rebuilding the project
  • Made sure I have enough space in my emulator (I have 4.5gb left)
  • Check if it's already installed in the emulator, it hasn't.
Solution

  • Open terminal, and type adb shell to access the emulator shell.

    Type settings put global verifier_verify_adb_installs 0 on the shell.

    I think this is related to the recent Google Play Services update. The verifier is more strict. This command in essence disables the Verify Apps option. From this article.
