I am working on an Android application and everything works fine when I create it on my local system and run it on the emulator, but as soon as I make and release and install apk on my phone, it crashes with an error -
There was an error parsing the package
As you can see, I create the latest SDK and build tools, and my phone works with the same version on the API. I also have the Untrusted Sources installation installed.
I use the Create Release Version section of this link. It generates a file like - app-release-unsigned.apk in my app/build/outputs/apk folder. Please help with this.
AVD emulator -
Galaxy Nexus, 1 GB RAM, API 22 (Android 5.1.1), CPU x86
My phone is
Nexus 5, 2 GB RAM, Android 5.1.1
