Instant Run gave me grief when debugging in Studio 3.4. Just turning it off worked (File->Settings->Build->Instant Run), but bothered me that was the 'solution'.

I felt better about it after reading this however: https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/2019/01/android-studio-35-canary-1-available.html

"Canary 1 of Android Studio 3.5 introduces a preview of Apply Changes, which replaces Instant Run. We know that Instant Run has in the past caused issues for many of you, and the feature hasn’t lived up to our quality standards. Instant Run rewrote the bytecode of your APK at build time to inject hooks to replace classes on the fly. For simple apps, this was largely fine, but for more complex apps, this could result in longer build times or head-scratching errors caused by conflicts between your app and Instant Run’s build process. We’ve taken a step back and decided to rewrite it from the ground up."
