adb install is a combination of multiple adb commands:

  1. upload the apk
  2. install it using pm install command.

Based on the error message it seems uploading is somehow the problem. Therefore I would suggest the workaround to upload the APK using a different way to the phone (e.g. via USB file sharing aka MTP) and then execute adb shell pm install <path to apkfile> from your PC.

Alternatively after uploading the APK you should be able to install the APK file by using an Android file manager.
