Try to use "v2SigningEnabled false" as described here https://developer.android.com/about/versions/nougat/android-7.0.html#apk_signature_v2 If it does not work - then generate apk manually, I suppose here is your answer - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4226132/app-not-installed-error-on-android — Evgen, Nov 08 '17 at 13:40
Also "signingConfigs { signingConfigs { " looks a little bit strange. — Evgen, Nov 08 '17 at 13:46

Looks like it's Android version issue. Try to select both the Signature Version check boxes while generating signed APK file i.e. v1 and v2. OR Try to uninstall earlier versions of your app (like debug APKs).

I am sure that on your phone debug apk is installed. Please uninstall the debug apk and then install debug apk.
