    @GauravKP SDK 7 requires Java 1.8. Ammar Midani do as the log says and look at the full log to see the exception: http://asish.com.au/xamarin-logs-visual-studio/ – Gusman Oct 21 '16 at 13:38
  • @Gusman Xamarin need Java 1.7 https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/android/getting_started/installation/windows/manual_installation/ – Gaurav P Oct 21 '16 at 13:41
  • @GauravKP nope, latest update requires Java 1.8: https://blog.xamarin.com/xamarin-android-7-0-now-with-more-nougat/ – Gusman Oct 21 '16 at 13:42
  • @GauravKP that doesn't means nothing, the minimum deploy target is independant of the SDK version you use. If the OP installed the latest SDK then it reqires Java 1.8. – Gusman Oct 21 '16 at 13:45
  • it's not helping @GauravKP – Ammar Midani Oct 21 '16 at 15:17

Clear your obj and bin folder for both projects. (PCL and Android).

If you're using a custom proguard tool, verify the file encoding is in utf or Ascii.
