I'm using https://build.phonegap.com to build my apk and ipa file.
I create the zip package and update it, then I download apk/ipa.
From today I have a trouble: the apk file isn't compiled, I can see errors in the log (while the ipa is generated).
Note I didin't change anything on Android settings, I think there is an Android update causing this.
The Phonegap log says (this is only the trailer):
BUILD FAILED

I work with DevExtreme, a Phonegap based platform, so the working solutions for pure Phonegap should be ok for my project too.

I found the magic trick to solve this.
I added this in my config.xml:
<plugin name="cordova-android-support-gradle-release">
<variable name="ANDROID_SUPPORT_VERSION" value="26.0.0"/>
</plugin>
And changed targetSdkVersion to 26:
<preference name="android-targetSdkVersion" value="26"/>
