what is the problems?

Running into same issue. But I needed to reinstall my PC, saved everything (whole codebase) And still running into this issue. Downgrade of cordova doesn't help — graphefruit

We had the same problem and were able to solve it by adding the following code-block the the platforms/android/build.gradle:

configurations.all {
  resolutionStrategy {
    force 'com.android.support:support-v4:24.0.0'
  }
}

It's possible to do it with a hook, like described here: https://github.com/crosswalk-project/cordova-plugin-crosswalk-webview/issues/205#issuecomment-371797767
