Answer 1

I had this issue when I was trying to install apk on emulator and I was always getting error messages that I need to uninstall the old version of my app's apk.

I solved it like this:

1. File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment.

2. Instant Run -> disable "Enable Instant Run to hot swap code/resource changes on deploy".

3. Apply -> OK

After that you can clean the project (Build -> Clean project) and re-enable instant run to get the instant run working again.

EDIT (Android Studio 3.0)

Disable Instant Run (Android Document)

To disable Instant Run:

1. Open the Settings or Preferences dialog. (For Mac, Android Studio -> Preferences)
2. Navigate to Build, Execution, Deployment > Instant Run.
3. Uncheck the box next to Enable Instant Run.
