I just went through the process an hour ago on sandbox. It has to be a signed APK of the 'release' flavour of the application if thats any help.

Thank you for your responce, I also had signed APK wich was signed for release, but it couldn't upload APK. p.s. It was possible to upload other apk's , but of course at the end it was showing "incorrect package or apk didn't signed "error.

When you're in sandbox I don't upload the APK, just specify the package name. Then side load onto the devkit

You don't need to upload the APK onto your Dev Dashboard, just create an app, specify it's package name (com.yourapp.package), set the proper permissions or modules your app needs and side load your APK using Android Studio.

Thanks for the info Bryanne!

I had to do the following in order to make this work:

  1. Create the app in the Dev Dashboard and set the necessary permissions
  2. Uninstall the app from the actual device if it was installed previously
  3. Install the app in the test Merchant Dashboard from the App Market
  4. Side load the app to the actual device using Android Studio
