.NET for Android error/warning ADB0010

  • Article

Issue

This message indicates that adb (Android Debug Bridge) reported an unhandled/unexpected error during APK installation. adb is part of the Android SDK and is used internally by .NET for Android to communicate with Android emulators and devices.

Solution

To learn more about adb, see the Android documentation.

Errors reported by adb are outside of .NET for Android's control, so a general error code of ADB0010 is used for unexpected errors related to APK installation. An error message of the form [INSTALL_FAILED_*] will emit this error code.

Implementation notes

Note that nothing in the open source https://github.com/xamarin/xamarin-android repository emits ADB0010, as features such as debugging and "fast deployment" are implemented in the proprietary .NET for Android additions.
