Xamarin Forms 5 UWP Layout cycle detected. Layout could not complete. Scrollview, Frames, ListViews

[rmgalante]

My application uses a Scrollview to house multiple frames. Each frame has one or more Grids. Each grid has one or more ListViews. I like the way frames look when displaying multiple Grids in the view.

I upgraded my project to Xamarin Forms 5. The UWP app crashes with the exception, Layout cycle detected. Layout could not complete.

It works in all three projects using Xamarin Forms 4.x. It works in Android and iOS projects using Xamarin Forms 5.x.

It throws an exception in the UWP app only.

If I change the frames to grids, it works. But I don't like the way it looks. And then I'm affecting the look and feel of the Android and iOS apps.

I created a simple application that demonstrates the problem and attached it to this message. Any help would be appreciated.

I really need some help here. Can we bump this up somehow?. I am stuck on version 4.4 due to another bug that was never fixed (see issue #11492). I want to upgrade to Xamarin Forms 5, and this is a show stopper.

I do have more information. I replaced the ListView in all the Grids with a RepeaterView that is similar to that which is described in the following article. The exception no longer occurs. So the ListView is the culprit in this report.

And finally, I tried the Telerik UI for Xamarin. It's ListView works.
