Where do you get this error from? What's the overall context?

Android wants a lib prefix and .so suffix. ".1" is not ".so"; if you managed to add libcyusb.so.1 to your .apk, it will *not* be installed.

Additionally, Xamarin.Android does not currently support 64-bit processors. (It's being worked on.) Consequently, you'll need to target a 32-bit ABI, e.g. armeabi-v7a.
