I'm getting this error when i'm lunching my app:

Installation failed with message INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED.
It is possible that this issue is resolved by uninstalling an existin
version of the apk if it is present, and then re-installing.
WARNING: Uninstalling will remove the application data!
Do you want to uninstall the existing application?

I clicked 'OK' but then i'm getting this log message:

DEVICE SHELL COMMAND: pm install -r "/data/local/tmp/com.team.saver.app"
pkg: /data/local/tmp/com.team.saver.app
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED]
DEVICE SHELL COMMAND: pm uninstall com.team.saver.app
Unknown failure (Failure)

  • i'v managed to overcome it by replacing the appId, but i need to keep the current app id and not replaced it.

  • i also tried deleting the package with adb and did not got response at all from the shell:

    adb shell rm -rf com.team.saver.app

  • also tried to restart the device

But still cant find a solution, any help would be great, thanx!

Try to install android studio with proper installation of jdk .It will not generate errors if all paths are set ok.

Change you Old SDK version to latest upgrade version and then clean the project and run it again. It may solve the problem .
