Since I upgraded to Android Studio Canary 5 I have had issues with Instant Run, it gives me the following error when Instant Run is Enable:
Information:Gradle tasks [:app:assembleDebug]
Error:C:\..etc.\app\build\intermediates\instant-run-support\debug\dependencies\AndroidManifest.xml:2 resource string/app_build_version_name (aka com.itbackyard.iels.client:string/app_build_version_name) not found

My only solution was to disable Instant Run from settings. What I was able to find is this topic with out solution so far.
Any idea if this is still a bug or is there any work around till it gets fixed?
Here is my version information:
