Didn't find class "com.onesignal.GcmBroadcastReceiver" on path: DexPathList

I'm new to Xamarin and trying to get OneSignal push notifications working in Android. When running the emulator and I fire a push notification from OneSignal, it comes through successfully on the emulator. However, when I deploy the app via Play Store, and I have the app open, firing a push notification crashes the app with the following error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate receiver com.onesignal.GcmBroadcastReceiver: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "com.onesignal.GcmBroadcastReceiver" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/com.woodfordgroup.whybuycars-Bl5_t81uXklo5mpGZRvJcw==/base.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app/com.woodfordgroup.whybuycars-Bl5_t81uXklo5mpGZRvJcw==/lib/arm64, /data/app/com.woodfordgroup.whybuycars-Bl5_t81uXklo5mpGZRvJcw==/base.apk!/lib/arm64-v8a, /system/lib64]]

Is this because the OneSignal library is not being included in the release? I've also seen mention of AndroidX or multi-dex issues. Here is the android manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:versionCode="15" android:versionName="1.0" package="com.woodfordgroup.whybuycars" android:installLocation="auto">
    <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="21" android:targetSdkVersion="29" />
    <application android:label="WhyBuyCars" android:theme="@style/MainTheme" android:icon="@drawable/whybuycars_icon_512x512">
        <provider android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider" android:authorities="${applicationId}.fileprovider" android:exported="false" android:grantUriPermissions="true">

        </provider>
        <receiver android:name="com.onesignal.GcmBroadcastReceiver" android:permission="com.google.android.c2dm.permission.SEND">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE" />
                <category android:name="com.woodfordgroup.whybuycars" />
            </intent-filter>

    <uses-permission android:name="com.woodfordgroup.whybuycars.permission.C2D_MESSAGE" />
</manifest>

And here are my android project properties (target version is 29):

I also wonder if something went wrong with the inclusion of various libraries while I was installing OneSignal from Nuget. Here is my list of project references:

Solution

  • Add this to the proguard file.

    -keep class com.onesignal.** { *; }
