Hi @tahir-jamil,
In case you are changing the tns-core-modules version manually in the package.json file, you should delete platforms, node_modules folders and package-lock.json files from the project and then rebuild it. Try the below-attached steps and check if you will have the same issue:

1. delete node_modules, platforms, hooks folders
2. remove package-lock.json file
3. run tns run android or tns run ios

Also, you can check out this article from the docs, where it is described, how to update all project.
Let me know if I am missing something or if the case is different.

ya i have done that many times delete
node_modules, platform , hooks
but it still not updating

[tsonevn]

Hi @tahir-jamil,
The issue, you are facing can be related to issue #2730, where it is described a problem with deleting the old app files from the device's tmp folder.

There is two option for validating whether this is the case:

Build a .apk in release mode and deploy it on a device. When the application is built in a release, it will not check the /data/local/tmp/<appid>/ directory and will not sync files from there.
Remove the /data/loca/tmp/<appid>/ from device. In order to do this, execute:

$ $ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools/adb shell
$ cd /data/local/tmp
$ rm -rf <your app id>

And deploy the built .apk again.

Can you also provide more info about the device, which you are using?

ya i am using Q Z12 pro

Hi @tahir-jamil,
Were you able to resolve the issue, while deleting the tmp folder from the device?

[tahir-jamil]
