Android Studio deployment logs and raw adb exit-code visibility
0 reputation · 23 Jul 2024, 22:09 UTC
The goal is to determine whether Android Studio exposes the exact adb install command line and exit code for a failed device deployment, or only a summarized failure message in the Run tool window and Event Log.
Documented behavior shows that deployment failures can appear as short summaries, while the full adb invocation, exit code, and install-service output may not be surfaced consistently. The relevant uncertainty spans APK versus Android App Bundle deployment, deployment variant, connected device authorization and screen state, and differences between Android Studio releases; no single IDE log location is guaranteed for every failure.
Does Android Studio write the raw adb command and exit code to any IDE log when deployment fails? Is the visibility different for app bundles than for APKs? Where should the raw install evidence be checked when the Run window shows only a failure summary?
