what is the problems?

Answer 1

We had the same problem and were able to solve it by adding the following code-block the the platforms/android/build.gradle:

configurations.all {
  resolutionStrategy {
    force 'com.android.support:support-v4:24.0.0'
  }
}

It's possible to do it with a hook, like described here: https://github.com/crosswalk-project/cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview/issues/205#issuecomment-371797767

Answer 2

The error occures from Cordova plugins using different versions of Android Support Libraries. cordova-android-support-gradle-release can help you force them to use the same version.

Answer 3

add cordova-android-support-gradle-release

and then, add in config.xml

<plugin name="cordova-android-support-gradle-release" spec="^1.4.3">
    <variable name="ANDROID_SUPPORT_VERSION" value="26.+" />
</plugin>`
