I am working toward my first Android app and am having trouble. I am trying to Build and Archive the simplest possible Android app and can't get the Archive step to work.
Here is what I am doing...
Run Android SDK Manager and install the following
Android SDK Tools 25.2.5 Android SDK Platform-tools 26 Android SDK Build-tools 26 Android SDK Build-tools 25.0.3 Android SDK Build-tools 25.0.2 Android SDK Build-tools 25.0.1 Android SDK Build-tools 25 SDK Platform 25.3 Android Support Repository 47 Google Play Services 42 Instant Apps Development SDK 1 Google Play Licensing Library 1 Google Play Billing Library 5 Google USB Driver 11 Google Web Driver 2 Emulator 26
Create a new Cross Platform (App1) using defaults (Xamarin.Forms - Blank App - Shared Project), I make no changes to the code.
Open App1.Android Poperties
Compile using Android version: Android 7.1 (Nougat) Package Name: App1 Version number: 1 Version name: 1.0 Minimum Android version: Android 7.1 (API Level 25 - Nougat) Target Android version: Android 7.1 (API Level 25 - Nougat) Linking: Sdk Assemblies Only Everything else are default values
Set for Release and Build: Success
Archive: The "LinkAssemblies" task failed unexpectedly.

Where am I going wrong? How can I be messing up such a simple blank template app?
If you go to the 'properties' tab for your android project and select 'Android Options' you will see a drop down list under the title 'Linking' Switch this so that it says 'None' and try again.
If this works, then try it again with 'SDK Assemblies Only'. Usually you get that error when it's found something that can't be linked natively.
