Android Studio 2.3 not deploying ui changes

Question

since today im not able to deploy my UI changes anymore. The app runs fine but i cant change anything on the UI side. Whatever I do the app keeps the same UI every time. I changed nothing since my last dev session and now im stuck with this problem for hours.

What I tried so far:

Clean and Rebuild several Times
Disabled Instant Run
Deleted the Build folder
Checked for different Layout versions
Complete uninstall and reinstall of the app
Gradle Sync
Different Smartphones and Emulators

I can see all changes inside the preview of Android Studio but for some reason they dont appear in the deployed app.

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_send_media);

share your java code where you are setting the content view. — Nidhi Pandya, Apr 03 '17 at 10:03

As you havent uploaded java file i am assuming This Might be your problem: in your oncreate method please make sure that You havent used this by mistake

public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState, @Nullable PersistableBundle persistentState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState, persistentState);
        setContentView();
    }

it will persist your ui changes and wont update it.. so instead of this use following

@Override
    public void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    }

Added the code for completion but since I changed nothing it might not be the problem — TBrauwers, Apr 03 '17 at 10:25

I fixed it with a complete reinstall of Android Studio.
