I know this question has been asked several times- My Xamarin Android package builds just fine, and gives me this error- I can't run ANY project (including fresh new projects) on any emulator or my own physical Android- Runs totally fine on IOS. I'm on Mac
I've tried everything I could find online
Reinstalling VS 2019
Using VS 2022
Reinstalling Xamarin and all emulators as well as Java SDKs and Android SDKs
Enabling/disabling multidex or Appkey signing with debug.keystore and other custom made keys ( this gives error MSB6006: "java" exited with code 1.) on both debug and release
Sometimes with different parameters, I get "error ADB0010 The package was not properly signed (NO_CERTIFICATES)."
Also not able to find a solution for that
This problem came about after updating an app on google play console, but I don't see why this would have anything to do with it
If anybody could help, it'd be greatly appreciated- I'm completely unable to test my xamarin projects on Android at all and it's driving me crazy.
Edit: The code that is supposedly the culprit is: /Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/External/xbuild/Xamarin/Android/Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(2309,2)
Which is
<AndroidApkSigner Condition=" '$(AndroidUseApkSigner)' == 'true' "
ApkSignerJar="$(ApkSignerJar)"
ApkToSign="%(ApkAbiFilesAligned.Identity)"
KeyStore="$(_ApkKeyStore)"
KeyAlias="$(_ApkKeyAlias)"
KeyPass="$(_ApkKeyPass)"
StorePass="$(_ApkStorePass)"
PlatformKey="$(AndroidSigningPlatformKey)"
PlatformCert="$(AndroidSigningPlatformCert)"
ToolPath="$(JavaToolPath)"
ToolExe="$(JavaToolExe)"
ManifestFile="$(IntermediateOutputPath)android\AndroidManifest.xml"
AdditionalArguments="$(AndroidApkSignerAdditionalArguments)"
/>
Edit 2:
When ASB00100 shows up here's the error log:
