Question

I cannot find find FragmentPagerAdapter within Android.App.

I do not want to use the Fragment\'s from Android.Support.V4.App, as my target API is 14 and higher (Andr

Ugh, you just need to use the FragmentPagerAdapter from the V13 support library

Android.Support.V13.App.FragmentPagerAdapter

Then all other Fragment related classes can be used from the "normal" libraries/namespaces, with the exception of ViewPager, but that's no big deal.

Here's a sample for completeness (modified "Support4" example from https://github.com/xamarin/monodroid-samples/):

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;

using Android.App;
using Android.Content;
using Android.OS;
using Android.Runtime;
using Android.Util;
using Android.Views;
using Android.Widget;

using Java.Lang;

using Android.Support.V4.View;
using Fragment = Android.App.Fragment;

namespace Support4
{
    [Activity (Label = "@string/fragment_pager_support")]
    [IntentFilter (new[]{Intent.ActionMain}, Categories = new[]{ "mono.support4demo.sample" })]
    public class FragmentPagerSupport : Activity
    //public class FragmentPagerSupport : FragmentActivity
    {
        const int NUM_ITEMS = 4;

        protected MyAdapter _pagerAdapter;
        protected ViewPager _viewPager;

        protected override void OnCreate (Bundle bundle)
        {
            base.OnCreate (bundle);

            SetContentView(Resource.Layout.fragment_pager);

            List fragments = new List();

            // *** MonoDroid 4.2.7 letter case bug *** make's first letter lower.

            //string typeName = typeof(Fragment1).FullName;
            string typeName = "support4." + typeof(Fragment1).Name;

            fragments.Add(Fragment.Instantiate(this, typeName));
            fragments.Add(Fragment.Instantiate(this, typeName));
            fragments.Add(Fragment.Instantiate(this, typeName));
            fragments.Add(Fragment.Instantiate(this, typeName));

            //adapter = new MyAdapter(SupportFragmentManager);
            _pagerAdapter = new MyAdapter(FragmentManager, fragments);

            _viewPager = FindViewById(Resource.Id.view_pager);
            _viewPager.Adapter = _pagerAdapter;
        }

        public override bool OnTouchEvent(MotionEvent e)
        {
            return base.OnTouchEvent(e);

                return base.InstantiateItem(p0, p1);
            }

            public MyAdapter(Android.App.FragmentManager fm)
                : base(fm)

            }

            //public MyAdapter(Android.Support.V4.App.FragmentManager fm, List fragments)
            //    : base(fm)
            public MyAdapter(FragmentManager fm, List fragments)

                //return base.GetPageWidth(p0);
                //base.GetPageWidth(p0);

                return (float)(0.5f);
            }
        }
    }
