    Hi, I'm pretty new to Unity and hope anyone could help me on this problem

    so I made a pretty simple puzzle game with 1st scene today, everything worked well on editor, built successfully the apk file. Installed it using Bluestacks, but when I ran it, there was nothing but a black screen. I did some search but generally people would pass the unity logo before having this kind of issue. I tried everything I could find nevertheless, even build other completely different project, which did not run as well.

    I'm not sure if it's the build, Unity or bluestacks problem. would really appreciated if someone could give me some pointer here!

    P/S: The puzzle game worked normally the other day after build when I started the project and implemented first puzzle to test if the code is working.

    Thanks

    Try taking the APK that Unity builds, transfer it directly to the device in question, then open it directly on the device.
    Make sure the device is up to date, it can't be an older android device, also make sure you enable install of third party programs and debug for testing.

    Thanks @zumwalt , but Bluestacks can simulate as a Galaxy S20, and I could install it by dragging the apk file to the screen of the program. The previous version worked fine to be honest, just the only different between that version and the problem one was I updated unity to 2020.2.3f, installed cinemachine and device simulator package, which I don't think should give this kind of error.. I'm checking to see if I changed anything else but nothing seem suspicious so far

    I made a build for PC, and it worked! ... Just not the android, wondering why?
