I'm recieving the above error when deploying my Xamarin Android application using Visual Studio in debug mode, the compile process completes fine but I can't deploy.

The app runs fine in Android 8.1.0 but not in any other lower version.

Error:

You should look in the obj folder for the generated AndroidManifest instead. As the one in properties is not the full. - Cheesebaron
Thanks, I added the compiled AndroidManifest in the question text. - Luis Rodrigues
Could it be the android.hardware.nfc.hce requirement? Can you try to set it to required false? - Cheesebaron
@Cheesebaron din't work, same problem =[ - Luis Rodrigues
logcat from the device will probably reveal more - Cheesebaron

Finally I was able to solve the problem, the solution was to change the prefix name of the HCECardService to lowecase.

Before: Empresa1.SMPay.HCECardService

After: empresa1.smpay.HCECardService

[Service(Exported = true, Enabled = true, Permission = "android.permission.BIND_NFC_SERVICE", Name = "empresa1.smpay.HCECardService"), IntentFilter(new[] { "android.nfc.cardemulation.action.HOST_APDU_SERVICE" }, Categories = new[] { "android.intent.category.DEFAULT" }),
MetaData("android.nfc.cardemulation.host_apdu_service", Resource = "@xml/aid_list")]
public class HCECardService : HostApduService
{ ... }
