Has anyone been able to get Xamarin.Forms to work on API levels pre-11? ValueAnimator doesn't exist, and although this is provided by Xamarin.NineOldAndroids the Xamarin implementation doesn't reference that namespace.
Is there a way to use TypeForwardedToAttribute, ClassLoader overrides etc to modify this without recompiling Forms or NOA? Or possibly inject a using directive into the Xamarin assembly, or change the namespace mappings of NOA without recompiling.. I don't think any of those are possible but I thought I'd ask.
I have tried to change the java.system.class.loader but it doesn't seem to be used, everything appears to go through JNIEnv.FindClass which might use PathClassLoader directly? I'm not really sure.
Xamarin.Forms supports Android 4.0(API 14) or higher, Check it out
