Building with the dmengine android app doesn’t work anymore (1.2.132)

Tyring to test my application with the android phone dmengine app results in the screenshot below and the app freezing on my phone.

to reproduce just try and run a development build on android via the dmengine app.

expected behavior is for the app to open normally

defold version: 1.2.167

I’m on windows, running windows 10.

my development device is a samsung galaxy s10+

This works for me. Does it fail for all projects or just the one? Can you build and run locally? Can you bundle an APK and install instead of targeting a running dmengine?

I tried it on a fresh project and got the same result. I can build and run locally on my computer and I can bundle and install fine. only trying to do this through the development app is giving me issues.

though I managed to get another line in my console while trying all this that is just

FATAL:ENGINE: Unable to load project file: 'http://192.168.1.94:55755/build/game.projectc' (-1) that shows after the line in my screenshot if that helps at all

This seems to indicate that the mobile dev app has problems loading the game content over the network. Could it be a firewall issue? Could you try connecting via USB instead of Wifi (https://defold.com/manuals/dev-app/#connecting-to-an-android-device-using-usb-on-windows-or-linux)?
