Selected Device Incompatible - Android Studio

I have fixed this problem before but I can't now and I need a permanent fix. Everything has been going fine in Android Studio when it comes to testing my app. I now run into the problem "The selected device is incompatible." when I go to run the app. I'd like to know how I can keep it from reading my phone's API as 1 rather than changing my minSDK to cater to this problem, if possible.

EDIT: Literally just found a fix, not sure if it is permanent. I just restored my defaults in Development Options, turned USB Debugging off and on again and that did the trick.

I had a very similar issue,

Usually whenever I connect the android device for usb debugging, the device will prompt me asking for the permission from to access from the development PC

enter image description here

In my case, for some reason, I didnt get this prompt and hence, I got this error. I have turned off developer options & USB debugging, turned on again. Then, I got the prompt and the issue is solved

All I had to do was turn off USB debugging, then turn it back on and it worked immediately. I didn't have to reboot or change any other settings.

Not sure if this helps. I had a similar issue using my MotoG 2nd generation with Android Studio on Ubuntu. I switched the settings as how my phone was connected from MTP to PTP. That worked for me.
