Can't debug apk using android studio

My team moved 4.20 recently and
I tried to debug android APK following this link ; Debugging for Android devices in Unreal Engine | Unreal Engine 5.2 Documentation

When I start to debug, game installed and starts but displays UE4 logo and “… resources could not be found” error string.

I explored \Intermediate\Android\APK\gradle\app\build\intermediates\instant-run-apk{my game}.apk
and found in apk, res folder missing and resources.arsc size differs from normal built apk.

Anyone has exeprience like this?

Are you able to install and run the app from the commandline? So far my approach has been build and install the apk using the provided batch file. Then I open the gradle project and can debug.

Of course I’m reading your post because I’m having issues - currently finding that the second time I build the package with a code update I get a “can’t mix gradle and java” error from Android Studio and no debug option.
