I have this error "ContextCompat does not exist in the current context" and a "PackageManager does not contain PERMISSION_GRANTED definition"

when I create the method output error "ContextCompat does not exist in the current context" and a "PackageManager does not contain definition PERMISSION_GRANTED" .. know if I should add any special directive. Thank you

METHOD

private void CheckSMSStatePermission()
{

int PermissionCheck = ContextCompat.CheckSelfPermission(this, Manifest.Permission.SendSms);
if (PermissionCheck != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED)
{
    Toast.MakeText(Activity,  "No se tiene permiso para enviar SMS.", ToastLength.Short).Show();
    ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[] { Manifest.Permission.SendSms }, 1);
}
else
{
    Toast.MakeText(Activity, "Se tiene permiso para enviar SMS!", ToastLength.Short).Show();
}
}

Error 1

change this 

int PermissionCheck = ContextCompat.CheckSelfPermission(this, Manifest.Permission.SendSms);

to this

int PermissionCheck = ContextCompat.CheckSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS;);

or try this

 String permission = android.Manifest.permission.SEND_SMS;
 if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(SearchCityClass.this, permission)
     != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED){
      ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(SearchCityClass.this, new String[]
                    {permission}, 1);

 }

add this permission in manifest file

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS"/>

If you are trying to use ContextCompat.XXXX your Activity subclass needs to be from an AppCompatActivity (Not Activity...).

AppCompatActivity is available in the nuget package: Xamarin.Android.Support.v4:

<package id="Xamarin.Android.Support.v4" version="25.4.0.2" targetFramework="monoandroid71" />

Add that package and change your Activity to a AppCompatActivity
