Current Behavior

When attempting to install an apk produced by Capacitor via adb, I am recieving the following error:
adb: failed to install app-release-signed.apk: Failure [-124: Failed parse during installPackageLI: Targeting R+ (version 30 and above) requires the resources.arsc of installed APKs to be stored uncompressed and aligned on a 4-byte boundary]

The apk file was built by selecting Project -> Prepare Release in the Visual Studio Code extension.

Expected Behavior

The application should install, as it does on the Android Studio emulator.

Code Reproduction

Here is my capacitor.config.json file for reference:

  "appId": "com.fanman03.camviewerplusclient",
  "appName": "CamViewerPlus Client",
  "bundledWebRuntime": false,
  "webDir": "dist",
  "plugins": {
    "SplashScreen": {
      "launchShowDuration": 0
    }
  },
  "server": {
    "androidScheme": "https"
  }
}

npm --version output:
8.19.2
node --version output:
v18.16.0
pod --version output (iOS issues only):

If you are building from the vs code extension, it looks like a problem with the vs code extension, not with Capacitor, you should report it there.

It's probably using jarsigner instead of apksigner

@Fanman03 Did you get this solved? I'm coming across the same issue even when using cli
