I am Korean and the questions below may not be smooth as translation of what I wrote in Korean into a translator.
On xamarin android, the debug mode has the following symptoms (the xamarin.forms android part has the same symptoms).
- When launching the app with 'Start Debugging', the app appears to be running and then bounces off. (In case of running the app with 'Start Debugging' in release mode, it runs without a problem.)
- It runs without any problems when running the app with 'Start without Debug'.
- If you deploy in debug mode or run the app after launching the app with 'Start Debugging' or 'Start Without Debugging', the app will bounce if you install and run the app on the app player (such as Nox) or practical device.
- When you open the apk created after deploying in debug mode or launching the app with 'Start Debugging' or 'Start Without Debugging', the assembly is not packaged. Is it normal?
- When you open the generated apk after deploying in release mode or launching the app with 'Start Debugging' or 'Start Without Debugging' in release mode, the assembly is packaged normally.
- The apk generated in debug mode has no assemblies packaged, which seems to be associated with #1 and #3.
- Other questions. Is there any way to build apk without running the emulator?

the app will bounce if you install and run the app on the app player (such as Nox) or practical device.
Due you mean that application will be moved to the foreground when start debugging?
When you open the apk created after deploying in debug mode or launching the app with 'Start Debugging' or 'Start Without Debugging', the assembly is not packaged. Is it normal?
If you want to prepare an Application for Release, please refer to this thread step by step, then check the assembly.
