This generally happens during build because it is trying to download the android_m2repository_r22.zip.

It might be because of slow/no internet. However, you can follow these steps:

  1. Download the file.

  2. Create a new folder content within.

C:\Users\sachin.manu\AppData\Local\Xamarin\Xamarin.Android.Support.Design\23.0.1.3\

  1. Extract the m2repository folder from the zip file and place it within the content folder.

  2. Restart Visual Studio and try building again.

Happy Coding!
