Unable to debug Android

[nk-alex]

Description

I'm not able to debug my Android application. When I try to debug using a real device, the application gets installed, but right after splash screen, gets minimized and VS Output remains stuck on:

Forwarding debugger port 8812
Detecting existing process
> am start -a "android.intent.action.MAIN" -c "android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" -n "io.myapp.com/crc6452d2c7dfdf781294.MainActivity"
> Starting: Intent { act=android.intent.action.MAIN cat=[android.intent.category.LAUNCHER] cmp=io.myapp.com/crc6452d2c7dfdf781294.MainActivity }

When I try to stop the debugging process, an error popup shows up telling me:

The debugger was unable to terminate one or more processes: [N/A] Mono: The debugger is still attaching to the process or the process is not currently executing the type of code selected for debugging. The debugger may be unstable now. It is recommended that you save all files and exit.

After closing this popup, VS just freezes.

If I try to debug using an emulator, VS loads an outdated version of the application.

The only way I can make my application work on my real device is by using Release mode.

[Edit] - Just installed a new emulator. This one is telling me on Output:

[libc] Fatal signal 6 (SIGABRT), code -1 (SI_QUEUE) in tid 4502 (io.myapp.com), pid 4502 (io.myapp.com)

This is my fault. Somehow on android options I had bundle insteak apk on Debug mode.
