I have used this BouncyCastle Nuget package: https://www.nuget.org/packages/BouncyCastle-PCL/ and it works just fine for me (cross platforms Windows Store App, .Net Framework 4.5, Silverlight 5, Windows Phone 8, Xamarin.Android, Xamarin.iOS)

Use HMACSHA1 to generate signature like this:

public string GenerateSignature(string key, string signatureBase)
{
   var keyBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(key);
   HMACSHA1 hashAlgorithm = new HMACSHA1(keyBytes);            
   byte[] dataBuffer = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(signatureBase);
   byte[] hashBytes = hashAlgorithm.ComputeHash(dataBuffer);
   return Convert.ToBase64String(hashBytes);
}
