"Failed sending reply to debugger: Broken pipe" when trying to run app on Android device

Question

Trying to develop my first app, and I'm running some code on a Nexus 6. Android Studio tells me I have no errors, but when I try to run the app on my phone, I only see a blank skin (i.e just the title of the app in the ActionBar and everything blank underneath)

I checked the logcat and it said: "Failed sending reply to debugger: Broken pipe"

I tried googling around for this error but didn't find anything that helped. Anyone know what's going on?

Answer 1

There should be problem with Layouts you implemented for your app , check opacity of frame color you used .

I also got similar issues , but i fixed that with correct layout.

Answer 2

Under gradle scripts you can check compiler version.

In build.gradle(module app)

Answer 3

Check the Compiler SDK version and the Emulator API version. If the compiler SDK version greater than API version it will throw the Error.
