Hi,
Has any experience the below error when adding a Xamarin Forms Map to the ASPNET Zero Xamarin app?
On app startup during the splash display
Unhandled Exception:
Java.Lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.[PROJECTNAME].Mobile/md53fe6e38767471a4d81890f4256fb3813.SplashActivity}: java.lang.IllegalStateException: You need to use a Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) with this activity.
It fails on the SplashActivity right after the OnCreate method:
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
base.OnCreate(savedInstanceState);
UserDialogs.Init(this);
ConfigureFlurlHttp();
SetExitAction();
}
We are using Xamarin.Forms.Maps version 2.3.4.347 any newer version causes compile errors in the googleplayservices java classes
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Riaan

Hi @riaan,
Does this happen with the not modified app or are you trying to add a new item/page to Xamarin app ?
You can also take a look at below links if you haven't already <a class="postlink" href="https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/99303/getting-you-need-to-use-a-theme-appcompat-theme-or-descendant-with-this-activity-on-setcontentview">https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/9 ... ontentview</a> <a class="postlink" href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48174193/you-need-to-use-a-theme-appcompat-theme-or-descendant-with-this-activity-xa">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/481 ... ctivity-xa</a>

Hi @ismcagdas,
I've only added the Xamarin.Forms.Maps nuget package to the Xamarin App's Droid project. Haven't added any new pages yet, so it is the only "modification" made to the app.
