Q:

Cause of "This app contains code that attempts to bypass android's security protections"

I have been working on a very benign Android application for a couple months now and all of a sudden I started getting this message on my device when I try to re-install it from IntelliJ. 

My question is, what sort of things would cause Android OS to display this message?  If I were to ever release this app, I certainly would not want my users to have to see this before installing. 

A:

I had the same problem and it was caused by gradle plugin v2.2.0 (beta version and also RC).  When I changed the version back to 2.1.3 problem dissapeared. 
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.3'
