I'm sure this issue is caused by this plugin because I've tried to remove image crop plugin and build again.

I think it is due to some changes in latest gradle Here is my build.gradle file. `// GENERATED BY UNITY. REMOVE THIS COMMENT TO PREVENT OVERWRITING WHEN EXPORTING AGAIN

buildscript { repositories { google() jcenter() }

dependencies {
    classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'

} }

ImageCropper doesn't have any Android dependencies and doesn't use a custom AndroidManifest. I can't figure out how it breaks your Gradle builds because there are no Android-specific tasks/dependencies/requirements at all.

P.S. I've edited your comment to remove the exposed keyword passwords.

Thanks for your response! Issue was definitely due to this plugin manifest file

But I've fixed this actual it was minor issue for those only who are using latest gradle version.. <application> <activity android:name="com.astricstore.imagevideocontactpicker.AndroidPickerActivity" android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden|screenSize"> </activity> </application> I moved activity in Application tag and now this manifest is merging fine.

[yasirkula]

Are you sure that this is my manifest file? This plugin does not have an AndroidManifest.xml at all, I'm almost sure that this activity comes from another plugin, like this: https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/integration/image-and-video-picker-28597

[nasir41]

maybe not from your plugin sorry I implied this because it was in this folder name Croplib. https://i.ibb.co/djHR648/Screenshot-2019-01-05-at-8-10-41-AM.png

[yasirkula]

It's fine. Only the ImageCropper directory belongs to my plugin.
