This is a different issue and I already ran that command earlier. The install button doesn't do anything when clicking on it only on android dev manager. It works fine on windows with the dev manager app

Let me add that on my side it works on my phone (Android 14) but not on my tablet (Android 15)

Works for me on my mobile with LineageOS 22.2 (Android 15).
Doesn't work for me on linux running sway (wayland)

I am also experiencing this issue since my phone received an update from Android 14 to 15.
I am using the latest dev mgr version - .16.
To clarify, this is the install button on the top-right of the home screen that should open a browse window to enable you to find and select a file from the phone.
