Relevant log (logcat/build log)

adb shell ps | grep artium

Output:

u0_a406       5703   951   17060052 284856                     0 S com.artiumacademy.mobile.app.qa

adb checking is process is present or not:

Solution

I think the issue is something related to JDWP(Java Debug Wire Protocol). When the app shows Waiting for debugger, you can check the PID using command:
adb jdwp

But in our case, it gets stuck until it is stopped manually.

Additional context

This is not a JDK or an Android Studio issues, because I have tried the same with my Samsung S23 on stock OS and it works. Also I updated yesterday which is 5th May. Before that it was working perfectly on CrDroid 12.8.

I have also tried clean flashing the ROM it does not work.
