IncompatibleClassChangeError on Android using Xamarin - xamarin

I wan't to compile my project on Android and I got this following error :
Java.Lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: 'No static method getFont(Landroid/content/Context;ILandroid/util/TypedValue;ILandroid/widget/TextView;)Landroid/graphics/Typeface; in class Landroid/support/v4/content/res/ResourcesCompat; or its super classes (declaration of 'android.support.v4.content.res.ResourcesCompat' appears in /data/app/Digibois.LogiStock--0DmxMZxf8_3l0NMh1wijQ==/base.apk)'
There is my manifest :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:versionCode="1" android:versionName="1.3.4.0" package="Digibois.LogiStock" android:installLocation="auto">

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<application android:label="LogiStock" android:icon="#drawable/icon"></application>
</manifest>
Im using an emulator with Android 6.0 API 23. I also tried with Android 8.1 API 27.
I tried to search a lot of solution but I found anything about it.
Thank's for your help !

I was actually trying to solve the same problem today and may have found a solution.
First of all, make sure you install both Permissions and Location plugin into all your projects (including the .NET Standard shared project and platform projects).
Also, I was using the latest beta version, but that seemed to be causing issues and threw the Unauthorized exception even though a direct check resulted in Granted. After installing the stable version (4.5.0.6), it started working as expected.

android.os.FileUriExposedException Error - XAMARIN

I'm trying to do the file picker thing, and it works with lower SDK versions but in this case (android 7.1) it requires the FileProvider.
The thing is that I have seen a lot of answers on the internet and I think that's all OK with my code. What do you think? Why can't I find the reference to the FileProvider in my class?
Hope someone has the idea why this is not working for me, here is the code:
AndroidManifest.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

</paths>
EDIT1(The Error):
So this was not easy to find out, but it look's like I need to add-in this extention:
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=EgorBogatov.XamarinGradleBindings#qna
By add-in this you can now add references to the android directly like, and-in references from java(In my case FileProvider).
The tutorial for this is right in this link at github:
https://github.com/EgorBo/Xamarin.GradleBindings
Hope it helps people with this problem.

Xamarin Android installs 3 times the same app on VS Emulator

Every time I debug, it installs 3 apps. I don't have idea why.

As pointed out in the comments. You have probably copied the [Activity] attribute from somewhere and included MainLauncher = true in two other Activities.
Remove MainLauncher = true from those Activities and it should only show one launcher.

Can anyone help me?
I've got the same issue (in my case using App Center Push SDK).
The issue was solved by avoiding uppercase on first letter of application/package name.
The first thing I will try to modify uses-permission tag:
<permission android: name = "com.companyname.progettocomputergraphics.MAPS_RECEIVE" android: ProtectionLevel = "signature" />
In my case I had to use
<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY" android:value="AIzaSyBFdb7p_3FTSQWX-sfOniZmQrsBHnM0Bu.."/>
in manifest

"You must have AdActivity declared in AndroidManifest.xml with configChanges"
